Natalie Portman has welcomed her third child, her first with her boyfriend, the French musician Tanguy Destable, according to multiple outlets.

The Black Swan actor, 45, gave birth to the child in Paris last month, according to People.

In photos published by Page Six, Portman was seen beaming while on a stroll in Paris, with Destable holding the baby in a carrier on his chest. The Independent has contacted Portman’s representatives for comment.

Portman has two older children, son Aleph, 15, and daughter Amalia, nine, with her ex-husband, the choreographer and director Benjamin Millepied.

The actor revealed her pregnancy in April during an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, calling it a “privilege and a miracle.”

Portman’s father is a fertility specialist, so she said she grew up “hearing about how hard it is to get pregnant,” adding that she’s had “so many people I love who’ve had such a hard time with it that I want to be respectful around that as well.”

She added that while fertility journeys are “such a beautiful, joyous thing,” they’re also “not an easy thing.”

“Tanguy and I are very excited,” she told the publication.

“And there’s a calm and knowing myself: who I want to spend time with, what kind of energy I want around me that makes the experience so beautiful every day. And knowing it’s probably the last time, I cherish every moment,” she added.

Portman, who lives in Paris, said she was spending the early stages of her pregnancy swimming and doing gyrotonics to keep strong and spending lots of time with her kids.

“I try and do some kind of physical activity every day,” Portman recently Elle. “I either swim or walk, and do gyrotonics. I’m still vegan. I take lots of vitamins. I try and sleep as much as possible.”

“There’s been beautiful spring weather,” she said, adding, “so it’s been pretty amazing to just walk in the incredible parks here and go see art. Just the usual things you do when you’re not working!”

She added: “In France, they consider full-term to be 41 weeks rather than 40, so I guess I get an extra week to be pregnant this time around.”

In July, Portman shared an Instagram post of her cradling her bump on a Paris balcony, writing in the caption: “Counting the days until we meet you.”

Portman has kept her relationship with Destable out of the spotlight since they were first linked in March 2025.

Destable, a music producer who goes by the moniker Tepr, was previously married to French actor Louise Bourgoin, who has appeared in the 2010 adventure movie The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec and the medical drama Interns. They have two sons.

Portman moved to Paris in 2014 with her ex-husband and has resided there since she split from Millepied and filed for divorce in July 2023.

An emotional trailer for upcoming film Onwards and Sideways has left BBC viewers in tears.

BBC viewers have been left sobbing as an emotional trailer for an upcoming film has been released. Set and filmed in North Norfolk, Onwards and Sideways stars Rhys Ifans and Laura Linney as two people who find friendship and comfort with one another after an unexpected diagnosis of Parkinson’s.

The synopsis teases: “Tony is deputy head of a primary school. Emma is a musician and composer, and a single mother of two daughters. Neither knows the other, until a startling encounter changes the course of their lives. On the same morning, these two are confronted with a diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease.

“This film is their story – a friendship which unfolds unexpectedly. A story of humour and emotion, of challenge and courage, of music and dance – transcending the assumptions of a little understood condition, and triumphing over the odds to find joy, release and love.”

A first-look trailer has now dropped, ahead of the film’s release in cinemas. Viewers were left in tears as they got to meet the characters for the first time.

The clip begins with Tony at school, performing as a pirate for the children when one asks him, “What’s wrong with your hand?” As concerns grow over his hand, he finally sees a doctor, but his world turns upside down when he receives a diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease.

Moments after hearing the news, Tony meets Emma, who tells him: “I was just told that too.” As Tony gets to grips with his diagnosis, Emma invites him into her world, having joined a ballet class and run club for those with the same disease.

As the clip goes on, a tearful moment sees Emma break down in tears as she struggles to play the piano, while another poignant moment sees Tony read: “When the dark clouds come… keep going.” He adds: “We have a long way to go, but look how far you’ve come.”

In the trailer’s final moments, Emma and Tony are seen jumping out of a plane together, and he concludes the clip by saying: “When things feel out of control, focus on what you love. All stories can have a happy ending, it just depends on where you end them.”

One viewer replied: “It looks so good but I’m crying at the trailer so don’t know how I’ll manage the actual film.” Someone else agreed: “Me too. And I don’t care. It shows the trailer did it’s job!”

Another said: “As someone living with young onset Parkinson’s disease I’m very happy to see more awareness being made with a great cast like this.” A fourth wrote: “Glad I’m not the only one with leaky eyes watching this.”

Someone else wrote: “This has given me goosebumps. Looks amazing.” Another said: “Rhys Ifans, Laura Linney and a storyline about Parkinson’s – which my mum developed several years before her death – this is a must-see.”

Charity Parkinson’s UK also commented: “Such an incredible opportunity to raise awareness and to have Parkinson’s shown on the big screen. We can’t wait to watch it.” Cure Parkinson’s also said: “We’re looking forward to this! So important to see Parkinson’s represented on screen.”

When the film was announced, writer Paul Mayhew-Archer commented: “In 2011 when I was 58 years old, I was told I had Parkinson’s. It’s incurable and it makes many of the things I do – walking, talking, smiling – increasingly difficult. But though I have reasons to hate Parkinson’s it has also brought me opportunities I wouldn’t have missed for the world.

“The latest of these is the chance to work with the brilliant director John Madden and wonderful actors on bringing this story to life. So, thank you Parkinson’s. My fingers may fumble, my mouth may mumble and each step I take may result in a stumble. But I cannot grumble.”

SP Electricity North West said around 70 properties in Radcliffe and Ainsworth were impacted by the interruption, which was initially believed to be linked to an underground cable fault.

In an update provided to residents, the company said engineers discovered that a faulty fuse at a local substation had caused one of its transformers on the high-voltage network to trip.

A spokesperson said: “Our team have managed to complete any relevant repairs to restore the power to your properties.

“We are closely monitoring the sub station to ensure this does not occur again.”

The company added that customers experiencing any further interruptions should contact 105.

The latest update comes after frustrated residents reported waking up without power on Saturday morning.

One resident said: “I woke up to grab a coffee to find the electricity was off yet again!

“Now according to the website it won’t be on until 2pm.

“What is it with the electricity in Ainsworth, I don’t know how long it’s been off!

“It’s just so annoying as we seem to experience a power cut so often.”

Acknowledging concerns over repeated outages, SP Electricity North West said it understood this was “not the first time” residents had experienced a power cut in recent weeks and months and confirmed the issue would be investigated to determine whether the outages are linked and how disruption to households can be minimised in future.

The company thanked customers for their patience and understanding while engineers worked to restore supplies.

Don’t Look Back In Anger is co-directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, who previously worked together on LCD Soundsystem 2012 documentary Shut Up and Play the Hits.

Sharing their thoughts on the Oasis film, the pair recently said:

“We knew that the story of Oasis’ reunion had the potential to be explosive, and that the weight of expectation from fans would make it a hugely significant cultural event, but nothing prepared us for the genuine outpouring of joy and emotion from fans (old and new) in stadiums around the globe.

“It became important to us to reflect that back to audiences, and in doing so say something truthful about the world today. ‘Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger’ is ultimately, as its title suggests, a film about forgiveness, and hopefully one that strikes a chord in the times we are living in.”

A wealthy influencer died after having penis enlargement surgery at a Thai clinic during a vacation with his wife. 

Igho Ubiribo, 43, passed away after being injected with 40 milliliters of hyaluronic acid and lidocaine at a clinic in Thailand, in March, an inquest in London was told last month.

The British-Nigerian businessman was enjoying a break with his wife Danielle Simba Allen when he decided to have the procedure.

Afterwards, Mr Ubiribo, who spent much of his time at a $1.1million home in Los Angeles‘s Crenshaw neighborhood, went for a massage with Danielle but started to complain of chest pain and twice passed out.

Mr Ubiribo, a popular social media figure who had 185,000 Instagram followers, was taken to hospital in an ambulance where he was able to answer questions.

Once he got to the Sukhumvit Hospital in Bangkok, Mr Ubiribo was admitted to the emergency room where he was seen by doctors who recommended a CT scan.

Ubiribo, a popular social media influencer, had 40 milliliters of hyaluronic acid injected into his penis during the procedure, which triggered a heart attack

However, Mr Ubiribo lost consciousness before the scan could be carried out.

Dr Thongchai Chansirirattingkul, of Sukhumvit Hospital, said: ‘He had had two cases of syncope (fainting) earlier, when he was having a massage.

‘He had had 40 milliliters of penile filler injections earlier that day.’

Assistant coroner Jean Harkin said: ‘Igho Ubiribo was having a massage with his wife when he started to complain of chest pain.

‘When he was in the ambulance he was able to answer questions normally. His wife was able to confirm that he had passed out two times.

‘When he got to the hospital, his wife confirmed that he had filler injections in the penis.’

Ubiribo began complaining of chest pains during a subsequent massage and later suffered a fatal heart attack

She added: ‘The cardiologist talked about his clinical condition, prognosis and interventions.

‘He was sent to the intensive care unit.’

His wife had told doctors at the hospital about her husband’s penile procedure.

They confirmed he was suffering from a pulmonary embolism – when a clot blocks a blood vessel in the lungs.

Although medics tried to resuscitate him, he died in the early hours of March 6 after more than 100 minutes of CPR.

His London-based primary care doctor confirmed that Mr Ubiribo had an operation on his joints, was pre-diabetic and suffered from gout but had no other medical issues.

Meanwhile, pathologist John du Parcq carried out a post-mortem in the UK and also found Mr Ubiribo had suffered a pulmonary embolism.

In his report, Dr du Parcq said: ‘Cellular material found in Mr Ubiribo’s lungs matched the hyaluronic acid used in his penis filler jab, in keeping with a pulmonary embolism.

Igho was laid to rest in London in June in this gold coffin said to have cost $675,000

‘This matches the Thai autopsy.’

The couple had been staying at the Marriott Hotel in the Thai capital, an inquest at Inner West London Coroners’ Court heard.

The clinic where the procedure was carried out was not named.

Besides his Los Angeles home, Mr Ubiribo owned a $600,000 flat in Shepherds Bush, West London, with his Anglo-Zimbabwean socialite and fashion designer wife.

The couple got married in 2022 in Harare, Zimbabwe, in a $473,000 ceremony described as ‘lavish’ by Zimbabwean media.

Mr Ubiribo – whose nicknames were ‘Tiny and ‘Ego’ – was laid to rest in London in May in a gold coffin which reportedly cost more than $675,000.

Mourners at his funeral included his childhood friend and Nigerian afrobeat star Davido as well as celebrity barman Cubana Chief Priest and Pastor Tobi Adegboyega.

Speaking at the funeral in Kensington, Davido said: ‘I won’t lie, it is not easy when someone like Tiny leaves. His absence is heavy; it doesn’t feel real.

‘A man of so much energy, so much presence. The silence is heavy. He is not someone I ever thought I would be speaking about in the past tense.’

The pair’s social media showed a luxury lifestyle, with the couple pictured skiing in designer gear and posing with Rolls-Royces and yachts,

Although it is not known how many men have penis fillers every year, reports suggest that it is a growing number.

Hyaluronic acid is injected into the penis before being massaged to spread it out, which the patient should then continue to do at home.

The resultant increase in penis width lasts for between six and nine months.

The procedure – which costs up to $9,000, has been criticised by medical professionals, with the British Association of Urological Surgeons issuing warnings against it.

Ubiribo’s death was ruled to have been caused by an embolism triggered by the cosmetic procedure

Professor Vaibhav Modgil, an NHS andrologist and consultant urological surgeon from Manchester, said he had seen men come to hospital with their skin sloughing off.

He said: ‘It can be devastating for the patient.’

Professor Modgil added: ‘Men will go in thinking, ‘Oh, it’s gonna be brilliant’, but they might come out actually being even more dissatisfied than when they went in’.

In 2017, a Swedish man died when he had fat transferred into his penis – only to suffer an embolism caused by it migrating into his bloodstream.

And 65-year-old billionaire Ehud Arye Laniado suffered a fatal heart attack during a private penis enlargement injection treatment at an aesthetic clinic in Paris in 2019.

Coroner Jean Harkin recorded a narrative conclusion on Ubiribo’s death.

She said: ‘Igho Ubiribo, a businessman, died as the result of a cosmetic procedure abroad.

‘His death was caused by a pulmonary embolism as the result of an injection of hyaluronic acid into the penis.’

She added: ‘My sincerest condolences go out to Ms Allen.’

Celebrities are rarely shy about cashing in on the happiest days of their lives.

For the past three decades, everyone from A-listers to soap stars has found ways to work with brands and media outlets to make an easy profit from their nuptials.

David and Victoria Beckham were pioneers of the trend when they sold exclusive picture rights for their elaborate 1999 wedding to OK! magazine. The then-record £1million deal helped fund the lavish event at an Irish castle.

Six years later, Katie Price and Peter Andre funded their luxurious £1million nuptials at Highclere Castle – the primary filming location for Downton Abbey – by signing an exclusive deal also with OK! magazine.

But such deals didn’t always go in the stars’ favour. Former Blue Peter and GMTV host Anthea Turner faced a huge backlash for posing with a white chocolate Cadbury’s Snowflake bar during her wedding to Grant Bovey in 2000 amid claims it was ‘tacky’ and too commercial.

More than 25 years later, however, and there are no concerns about such transactions between celebrities and the glossier end of the media.

Today’s new wave of stars flaunting products at their weddings are doing so not in the pages of magazines, but on their own social media pages.

Post-nuptial Instagram posts, which once featured only the bride and groom, are now crammed with influencer-style tags plugging brands that celebs ‘partnered’ with for their ‘big day’.

From paid posts where stars earn cash by tagging brands, to items ‘gifted’ for free in exchange for exposure, the opportunity to profit from life’s biggest moments has become easier than ever.

And celebs can pocket huge sums. Payments for promotional content can stretch from tens of thousands of pounds up to millions, depending on the brand and the number of followers a celebrity has.

It means spending an additional 20 minutes or so taking pictures on your wedding day can net thousands more pounds in profits for celebs savvy enough to broker commercial partnerships in advance.

And while some may have just tagged the brands with no financial benefit, this seems unlikely in the current influencer climate of lucrative brand deals. 

So which recently married stars cashed in the most from the happiest day of their lives? Our wedding snitch reveals all…

Emily Atack

First up is Rivals star Emily Atack. The actress, 36, last month wed Dr Alistair Gardner, her step-cousin, and celebrated at their home in Bedfordshire.

Despite being worth an estimated £1.5million, several elements of her big day appear to have been gifted – including, most prominently, a personalised McDonald’s van that provided the catering, complete with a Mr and Mrs Gardner McFlurry sign.

As my mole tells me: ‘If McDonald’s shows up, you know the couple are saying yes to brands who are offering up freebies for exposure.

‘But a freebie deal takes over the day a bit because you have to fulfil your duty to take social pics for it.’

And the happy couple have the content to prove it. Emily posted pictures of herself and her new hubby posing in front of the van to her Instagram stories, captioned: ‘Gifted the most amazing van for the day. Let’s face it. It’s all you want after about 23 glasses of champagne.’

The shameless plugging didn’t stop there. Two months earlier, Emily – who plays forthright Sarah Stratton in the Disney+ series – had a raucous hen party in Cannes with 20 friends. There, she thanked the drinks brand Lady A – the £20-a-pop rosé created for Meghan Markle’s friend Markus Anderson by Soho House owner Nick Jones – for supplying enough alcohol ‘to last a lifetime’.

During the weekend getaway she also tagged a spray tan company for ‘keeping me glowing’ in an Instagram story.

After all this exposure, brands will surely be clamouring to gift her goodies for when she continues her wedding celebrations with a three-day Spanish extravaganza scheduled for later this month.

Jack Whitehall and Roxy Horner

Next on the list are comedian Jack Whitehall and his wife, Victoria’s Secret model Roxy Horner, who wed in April in a countryside ceremony at Euridge Manor in Wiltshire.

The couple, who have a daughter, Elsie, are estimated to be worth a combined £18million and yet – despite this and Jack’s comfortably middle-class upbringing – they are also guilty of cashing in on their fame for a freebie.

Roxy, 35, teamed up with American jewellery brand Brilliant Earth to advertise wedding rings.

Alongside a slew of snaps posted on Instagram from their big day, the couple posed with the rings alongside the caption, clearly marked as an advert: ‘It wasn’t that long ago we flew to NYC to pick our wedding bands from @brilliantearth and now we get to wear them forever. AD #brilliantearthpartner.’

As one industry insider told me: ‘That wedding was branded up to the nines. You can’t move without some paid partnership or tagged brand in their wedding posts. Their official post reads more like a love letter to companies that gave them things rather than to each other.’

There were 19 plugs in their Instagram wedding post, including one that thanked their luxurious venue – which is £42,000 to rent for the weekend.

Two months after the wedding (featured in Vogue) Roxy was still finding ways to plug brands. On June 30 she posted a promotional Instagram carousel of eight pictures and videos of her customised pearl Omnipod glucose monitor, which she uses to manage her diabetes.

What Jack’s old classmates from £65,000-a-year Marlborough College would make of such shameless plugging remains to be seen.

Mel C and Chris Dingwall

If you wanna be her lover, you gotta get with her tags… When former Spice Girl Mel C wed Australian model and actor Chris Dingwall in Cumbria in July, there were plenty of companies namechecked alongside the photographs she posted on social media of the happy occasion.

On Instagram, she tagged the venue, The Country House Cumbria, a slew of events organisers, wedding cake maker Sally Jean Wedding Cakes, her entire glam crew, and musicians Morassi Quartet, Natalie Williams and Tough Love.

Although Mel, 52, is worth £22million, she also appears to have called in a few favours from her A-list pals.

My source tells me that her Victoria Beckham dress was ‘lent’ to her by her former bandmate, and ‘DJ Chris Moyles hosted the event’.

Sporty Spice spoke at length in a Vogue interview about how her Victoria had stepped in at the last minute to provide a white lace-trimmed slip dress from her own wardrobe (and label) for the couple’s Australian wedding. Victoria, 52, also designed and created a custom white gown for her friend, inspired by the original slip dress, for the later UK celebrations.

Olly Murs

The Troublemaker singer, 40, wed his bodybuilder partner Amelia Tank at a multi-day celebration called ‘Murs Fest’ on Osea Island in Essex in July 2023.

Like Atack, X-Factor star Olly and his partner had a personalised McDonald’s truck, which they posed alongside while eating chicken nuggets and chips.

My spy reveals: ‘At the time, a source conveniently told newspapers that “Olly and Amelia had a food truck from McDonald’s serving up all of the classics, including McNuggets. They were lovin’ it.” If that isn’t a PR plug, I don’t know what is.’

Like Emily Atack, Olly Murs had a personalised McDonald’s truck for his wedding to Amelia Tank

On Instagram, Murs wrote: ‘Not every day you marry the 3 things you love the most! McNuggets, McFried and McMurs.’ He also thanked the company for their food van.

Murs might be worth an estimated £13.5million, but he also posted another promotion thanking The Grooms Room for providing suits to his groomsmen.

In addition, the couple’s wedding appeared as a cover story in Hello! magazine, in which they ensured they mentioned Australian Pallas Couture, the designer behind Amelia’s wedding dress.

Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing

Former Made In Chelsea stars Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing are veterans at capitalising on life’s most intimate moments.

After meeting on the show in 2017, the reality stars wed six years later, first in an intimate ceremony in west London, which was followed by a larger celebration in Sotogrande, a luxury community in Spain.

Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo… her Instagram page tagged a bridal accessory brand and also plugged photos of goodie-bags from her hen do

Sophie’s Instagram page tagged bridal and bachelorette accessory brand Gigi & Olive repeatedly.

‘I’m sure she was reluctant to stoop to the level of tagging brands all over her chic wedding social coverage,’ my spy tells me. ‘But the founder, Georgie Le Roux, is best friends with Jamie. But, even so, it’s not a great look as it lumps her in with all the rest of the pluggers.’

Sophie was also sure to promote her husband’s company, Candy Kittens, posting photos of goodie-bags from her London hen party filled with the brand’s sweets and several items from Gigi & Olive.

The brand busting continued during pre-wedding celebrations with friends in Paris, during which they wore sparkling cowboy hats from the brand. And who was at the party? Ms Le Roux herself.

Cruz Beckham appeared to take a fresh jibe at his estranged brother as he shared a cosy family snap from his show at Leeds Festival last weekend. 

Taking to Instagram on Saturday morning, the post came just hours after Brooklyn publicly supported his wife Nicola Peltz after her Venice Film Festival debut on Friday night. 

Nicola, 31, is set to receive the Rising Star award at the prestigious festival, and Brooklyn, 27, made sure to stand proudly at her side as he accompanied her to the Golden Globes x Aman Beverly Hills cocktail party in the Italian city. 

Yet once again Cruz proved how tight a unit the Beckhams are as he shared a group snap of his parents David and Victoria, his brother Romeo, 24, and his sister Harper, 15, while backstage at Leeds. 

Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30, and Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull, 24, were also included in the family snap which the musician captioned with a simple red love heart. 

Cruz and his band The Breakers rocked Leeds Festival last Sunday amid a busy weekend for his budding music career which saw his family support him at Reading the day prior.

The post came just hours after Brooklyn publicly supported his wife Nicola Peltz after her Venice Film Festival debut on Friday night

After the two festival shows Cruz took to his Instagram to reflect on the biggest shows of his career so far as he paid tribute to his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30 – who is also his music manager. 

He mentioned various members of his team in the post including Victoria’s niece Libby Adams who helps with photography for the band.

Alongside snaps from the weekend, including one where he kisses Jackie, he penned: ‘I am so grateful for everyone around me, not only are they my best friends but they are family, this journey has been so incredible and i have learned so much because of these people.

‘Last but definitely not least Jackie, you honestly have no idea how lucky we are to have you, not only do you take care of me but this whole operation, from creative to strategy to mgmt. We are a team and would not be doing this without you. i really love you so much.’

Meanwhile David and Victoria couldn’t get enough of their offspring’s ‘amazing’ performance as they waxed lyrical while greeting him backstage after the show.

The former pro footballer, 51, wrapped Cruz in a warm embrace as they reunited outside his trailer in the grounds of the famous festival.

David could be heard telling Cruz that his band’s performance was ‘amazing’ as he told him ‘well done’, while Victoria said: ‘I’m so proud of you!’

His younger sister Harper also heaped praise on him and told him that the gig was ‘insane’, after she had joined him on stage to throw T-shirts to the audience. 

Fashion designer Victoria, 52, also said she was impressed with her son’s stage look, which included an orange crop top and jeans, telling him: ‘I love what you’re wearing.’

David could then be heard commenting on the atmosphere in the tent, on the Canopy stage, asking Cruz: ‘Crowd was great no? Yeah wicked.’

Meanwhile Brooklyn proved he was his wife’s biggest supporter over in Venice as the couple put on a loved-up display as they posed for photos together. 

Cruz and his band The Breakers rocked Leeds Festival last Sunday (pictured) amid a busy weekend for his budding music career which saw his family support him at Reading 

Nicola had changed out of her satin camisole and into an elegant navy dress with chiffon scarf while Brooklyn opted for a black shirt and trousers. 

Despite Nicola’s 20-year acting career, Nicola is being awarded the prize at The Kineo Awards which aren’t officially part of the Venice International Film Festival.

The awards note on the citation for ‘rising star’ that Nicola actually started acting as a child 20 years ago.

Nicola, the daughter of billionaire Nelson Peltz, recently wrote, directed and starred in self-funded movie Lola whilst her resumé also includes roles in The Last Airbender, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Bates Motel, Holidate, Welcome to Chippendales and The Beauty.

The Kineo Awards, celebrating their 25th anniversary, note that ‘in recent years, the American actress, screenwriter and producer has attracted growing international attention through increasingly multifaceted roles, both in front of and behind the camera’.  

Nicola is being honoured alongside icon Faye Dunaway, who co-stars in her new self-funded film Prima. The legendary actress and Oscar winner will receive a lifetime achievement award.

The ceremony, set to take place at Venice’s Casa Cinema Giovani was conceived by Kinéo Cultural Association president Rosetta Sannelli and launched in 2002. 

It takes place during the Venice Film Festival, which welcomes A-listers annually, but has no direct ties to the international gathering.

Amy Twiddle has welcomed her first customers at Juicehaus – a trendy new studio, homeware shop and creative space in Bishopthorpe Road.

Located above Easy Street skate shop, Juicehaus offers bespoke designs and items from independent homeware makers and artists, along with vintage pieces.

Speaking about this, Amy said she wants to remove the stigma that interior design is “expensive, serious and a bit scary” by offering advice tailored to people’s homes, budgets and lifestyles.

“The idea is that you can come upstairs, wander around, discover something handmade or vintage, get ideas for your own home, have a chat about interiors, or simply come and see what on earth we’ve done with the place” (Image: Supplied)

Her service starts with a one-hour consultation, helping customers tackle everything from paint colours and furniture layouts to storage solutions and awkward spaces.

She said: “At its heart, Juicehaus is an interior design studio, but I really want to make interior design feel much less intimidating and much more accessible.

“There’s absolutely no “let’s rip all of this out and start again” mentality here. I’m much more interested in “how do we make this feel like your home?” than “how do we make this look like a magazine?”

Amy has upcycled many of the shop’s furniture – something she encourages and advocates for other people’s home interiors (Image: Supplied)

Sustainability is also central to the studio – and Amy, who has upcycled much of the furniture inside the studio, said she encourages people to repair and reuse their existing pieces before replacing them.

She said: “My new space is part design studio, part shop and part creative space.

“I’ve created a seasonal Haus Residency, where I bring together independent homeware makers, artists and vintage pieces and style everything together as an ever-changing interior rather than rows of conventional shop displays.”

“Juicehaus is as much about championing brilliant independent creatives as it is about selling their lovely things” (Image: Supplied)

Amy has got her shop ready for autumn, and can stocks work from A Touch of India, Bailey House Ceramics, work by CharKnots – who uses recycled cotton to create her pieces – Circular Interiors, Kaye + Clay, and Leonardo Morey – a Cuban, York-based artist.

Other pieces include work from local Melanie Hill Designs and Ponky Wots – bright and “wonderfully wonky” pieces made by Jade.

Amy said: “I really want the makers themselves to be part of the story.

“Juicehaus is as much about championing brilliant independent creatives as it is about selling their lovely things. Then, in three months, it all changes.

“The idea is that you can come upstairs, wander around, discover something handmade or vintage, get ideas for your own home, have a chat about interiors, or simply come and see what on earth we’ve done with the place.”

Juicehaus shares the first-floor of 32 Bishopthorpe Road with Jagoda – a tattoo artist who founded Let Me Ink.

Amy said: “Jagoda and I used to work together years ago, so the fact that we now have our own independent businesses and somehow get to coexist under the same roof is a bit surreal.

“Her tattoo studio is in the back of the space, with Juicehaus at the front, and it feels like such a lovely little creative community has started forming around us already.”
