Rosie Huntington-Whiteley stuns in a backless satin dress as she shares rare snaps of fiancé Jason Statham and their children during Positano getaway
The former Victoria's Secret Angel, 38, has been vacationing in the sun-soaked location for her model brother Tom's wedding to Noa.
Taking to her Instagram on Tuesday, Rosie continued to serve looks as she gave a look into her family getaway.
In one snap, Rosie was a vision in a backless satin champagne hue gown as she posed up a storm on a dreamy balcony.
This was followed by a rare snap of Jason with their daughter Isabella, three, on his shoulders while their son Jack, 8, walked beside them.
Another photo showed brother Tom embracing Jack before more photos showed Rosie's kids roaming about in the idyllic location.
In another photo, Rosie wore a mint green jaw-dropping fairy-esque gown which trailed across the floor.
She looked elegant in the head-turning outfit, which featured a mesh cape that was draped around her shoulders.
The beauty finished the photo dump with a sweet photo of Jason and Jack looking over the balcony at the stunning evening views.
The family were staying at five-star hotel Villa Treville, which boasts stunning views of the Amalfi Coast.
Rooms start at £3,416 per night, which makes it a luxury place suitable for the stars.
The high-profile couple seemed to enjoy some special family time together during the summer holidays.
Rosie and Jason have been together since 2009 and though he is best-known for his action films, he also had an impressive athletics career.
The model revealed they had taken their relationship to the next level when she flashed her impressive diamond ring at the 2016 Golden Globes.
The model, who grew up in Devon, recently revealed why she returned to the UK in 2020 and explained that it was always 'the plan' to raise her children in the UK.
She told The Times: 'We love the schools, the education. They're growing up British with their little British accents, which was important for us, and we have a great support system here.
'Jay's parents live up the road and see the kids most days, my family come to visit every six or eight weeks.'
Rosie also said her kids are having a childhood not dissimilar to her own, even spending large amounts of time in Devon where she grew up.
The mum, who only shares the occasional snap of her children online, added: 'In the summer we go down to Devon and our children have the same experiences running around on the farm that I had growing up, and it's very special.'

EXCLUSIVE Johnny Depp's rocky road back from cancellation: Pirates of the Caribbean actor is attempting to revive his career after bitter court battle with Amber Heard - but expert says he's dropped to a 'lower tier of stardom'
The latest unfiltered slating of Johnny Depp 's newest project is proof that life after domestic violence allegations is tough for even the rich and famous. Critics have slammed the star's latest directorial effort, Modì: Three Days on the Wing of Madness - a biographical drama based on the life of Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani - as an 'abomination' and 'filth'. The Pirates of the Caribbean star, 62, who dated Kate Moss in the 90s, was on the verge of cancellation in 2018 when rumors of him physically abusing his then-wife Amber Heard sensationally flooded airwaves. It sparked a tumultuous legal battle between the acrimonious duo, resulting in Depp suing the Aquaman actress in 2019 for defamation. She countersued in 2020 and the trial officially began in April 2022. Two months later, the jury's verdict was in favor of Depp. Perhaps decades ago that might have been the end of it, but in the era of 'flops' and being 'cancelled' - popularized by millenials and Gen Zs - A-listers' behavior is scrutinized more than ever - and the chance to attain the sort of fame they enjoyed before their misstep is more often than not wiped out. Whether proven right or wrong, false or factual, sometimes stars endure a public smearing that is hard to come back from - which is the case for the one-time mega movie star. The world anticipated his second coming post the legal battles when movie Jeanne du Barry dropped in 2023; but it fell flat, and so has every other project he's put his name to since then. According to British publicity extraordinaire Natalie Trice, the Johnny Depp we once revered is long 'gone' and any attempt at salvaging his ailing career won't work - at least for the foreseeable future. Simply put, calling the current state of his career a 'comeback' is a stretch. The expert said: 'Let's be honest, this once untouchable, mysterious figure that women wanted, and men wanted to be, is gone. 'That version of Depp had an almost supernatural cool factor, an enigmatic quality that made him seem like he existed on a different planet from the rest of us. 'The problem is people have long memories, and once you've seen someone's dirty laundry aired in court for weeks, the text messages, the recordings, and the details of a toxic, abusive relationship are shared across the news and social media you can't unsee it. 'The mystique has been shattered and his relationship with Amber Heard is as career defining and legacy leaving as roles like Pirates of the Caribbean'. Hopes of Johnny Depp reemerging as the comeback kid began with his appearance in the independent French-language movie Jeanne du Barry. The plot centers around the true life story of Jeanne Bécu, the illegitimate daughter of an impoverished seamstress born in 1743, who went on to become French king Louis XV's (played by Johnny Depp) last official mistress. One look at critics reviews and it's hard to tell if the flick's main actor is a multi Academy Award star who once dazzled in Edward Scissorhands and Donnie Brasco. Ever since the jury ruled in favor of Depp the actor has forged a 'comeback' which has been subjected to debates and ridicule (Depp gestures to spectators in court after closing arguments at the Depp vs Heard trial in 2022) The Telegraph 's chief film critic Robbie Collin called Jeanne du Barry a 'stale and draughty period romance' with Depp 'ill suited' to play the king. He further said Depp's regal gravitas was 'nonexistent' in the film, and told fans that it wasn't the 'glorious' comeback they anticipated. The review's further two out of five stars sharpened the blow to his acting chops, but perhaps not as much as The Guardian 's razor summary. Writer Peter Bradshaw proclaimed it to be a 'preposterous confection' and accused Depp's performance of overshadowing Jean du Barry's story. But while some social media users at the time purported it to be a flop, even sharing screenshots of empty movie theaters to prove their point, it has reportedly grossed around $15 million across the world. Considering a decade earlier mobster movie Black Mass pulled in $100 million and the classic Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides a fiery $1 billion, one struggles to brand Jean Du Barry an achievement, but neither does it satisfy the criteria of a flop. PR expert Natalie says Depp's latest work has descended into a lower 'tier' of stardom. 'Depp keeps insisting he never left, and technically he's right as he kept working through the chaos, but his career trajectory, reputation and legacy are different. 'The industry didn't cancel him outright, but they've definitely moved him to a different tier. He's gone from being Johnny Depp the phenomenon to Johnny Depp the working actor who comes with baggage and a reputation that's somewhat "savage". 'I think the new reality is he is less icon and more human. I don't think Depp's brand will ever recover its old power because we've seen too much; the court footage, the personal struggles, the very human messiness of it all - he's still incredibly wealthy but he's no longer mythical'. Around the same time Dazed sensationally questioned if Depp could ever be 'cancelled' following abuse allegations stated by Amber Heard - and if he was, whether it had been a 'good' thing for his brand. Citing back to back movie projects, a seven-figure deal with Dior and at the time JusticeForJohnnyDepp hashtags amassing 15 billion TikTok views compared to 8 million for Amber, the publication said Depp's career was 'thriving'. Fans have equally straddled the line between calling his rebirth attempt a comeback or cancellation, with many stating it hard to call. Writing on a Reddit forum about the Dazed article, one person said his 'level' of celebrity might be to blame: 'For someone with Jonah [Hill]/Depp level celebrity to be truly "cancelled", the allegations against have to be overwhelming, with mountains of physical evidence, video footage etc, and a criminal trial that proves their guilt. And even then you'll find some people continue to defend them'. One fan said Depp's career will never entirely 'disappear', but suggested it would coast over the next few years. 'Depp isn't going to disappear. He's too much a part of the Hollywood ecosystem for that and too ingratiated into pop culture. But I don't think his career is going to be anything like it was before. 'I think the last two years are a good indication of what the rest of his career/life is going to be like. He'll occasionally star in some European film that no one will see, someone he worked with years ago will post a picture with him on Instagram every now and then, he might even have the odd supporting role in a Hollywood film to remind people he's still alive'. Some people have disagreed with Dazed claims, including one user who joked: 'I think 'thriving' is hidden in one of Depp's tooth cavities, it might come out one day when he visits a dentist with a background in archeology'. Another added: 'Is Depp's career actually thriving? He doesn't seem to be doing much, and what he's doing seems to be relatively small projects'. Others spoke on his upcoming Hollywood comeback 'again' with movie Day Drinker, though they say it will tank like others before it. Dedicating an entire Reddit thread to the flick, one person wrote: 'Johnny Depp's comeback film again, it's got to be a running joke'. Another commenter predicted it would be a flop. Some critics and fans say Day Drinker could mark Depp's biggest-yet attempt to revive his silver screen career amid the Amber Heard scandal. Heard was found to have defamed Depp with references to 'sexual violence' and 'domestic abuse' in a 2018 Washington Post column and ordered to pay her ex-husband $10million in damages. The televised trial in 2022 turned into a circus with Heard decried by some as a conniving liar and Depp the saintly victim, while her supporters argued it was a dark day for the #MeToo movement and that it would put off other women from reporting domestic violence. However even his most ardent fans could hardly claim that the debacle painted a wholly flattering picture of Depp. The court heard messages he'd sent to his friend Paul Bettany about Heard, including: 'I will f**k her burnt corpse', as well as a recording of Depp smashing up the kitchen while drunk. This verdict also came less than two years after Depp unsuccessfully sued The Sun for calling him a 'wife beater' when a judge found the 'majority' of his alleged assaults against Heard had been 'proved'. But despite the drinking, drug use and toxicity laid bare in court, the actor remained the face of Dior Sauvage and rather than being cancelled, he is making a Hollywood comeback in the action thriller blockbuster Day Drinker next year. According to IMDb, the film, set for release in 2026, is about 'an enigmatic stranger who forms an unlikely bond with a grieving bartender who lost her lover as their lives intertwine in unexpected ways'. His newest look hasn't escaped the rebrand as the actor underwent a complete transformation for the movie, including sporting silver hair, a bushy full grey beard, and piercing blue contacts. Fans raved about his 'silver fox' look and numerous noted the actor looked a far cry from his usual self. Only time will tell if the movie is doomed like the ill-fated flicks before it. But if his recent calendar is anything to go by, he will surely dust it off and try again. 'The question isn't whether he can work again, he's proving that he can' said Natalie. 'He's [Depp is] proving that - but it's whether audiences can accept Johnny Depp as a flawed rather untouchable icon'. Digital PR strategist Stacey Wong says the actor has gotten it all wrong and shouldn't have hastily returned to the big screen. Speaking to FEMAIL, she added: 'Right now, the focus should be on credibility and clarity. He doesn't need to win everyone over, he just needs to show stability. 'The next project, whether as an actor or director, will be important. If it's well-received, he could begin to rebuild his image'. It's too late as reviews for the Depp-directed Modi: Three Days on the Wing of Madness have come in thick and fast. The plot- released in British cinemas last week, is described as, 'a 72 hour whirlwind through the streets of WWI Paris,' following Italian bohemian artist Modigliani (Riccardo Scamarcio). The film follows the artist as he, 'attempts to out maneuver bombs, policemen, girlfriends and critics in an increasingly desperate search of a home for his art'. It reunites Depp and Al Pacino for the first time since their 1997 mobster smash Donnie Brasco. According to The Telegraph, Depp's attempt at a career comeback is hard to decipher under the 'great pile of steaming filth' of a 'mangy biopic'. Meanwhile The Times branded the whole affair an 'abomination' and thought it 'a plotless and formless offering with a shamefully inept screenplay'. Rotten Tomatoes is yet to aggregate a final score for the movie but a succession of two out of five scores is sadly telling. 'A string of gruelling clichés' is what one user called it, while another called it 'bland'. 'Modi, Three Days on the Wing of Madness is, despite the floridity of its title and the bad behavior shown onscreen, a curiously bland package' it read in full. Stacey says the project shouldn't have happened in the first place. 'He's won the legal battle which helped his public image, but the industry hasn't fully welcomed him back. Directing Modìgliani: Three Days on the Wing of Madness shows he's pushing forward, but early reviews have been really harsh. 'Choosing to direct a biopic about a chaotic, tortured artist feels symbolic, but passion projects don't always translate into strong public comebacks. Critics are calling the film messy and unfocused, which makes it harder for audiences to re-engage with his work'. At the moment Depp's career 'comeback' is as bleak as the foggiest winter morning and it appears to be coasting into oblivion. But Natalie sees hope at the end of the tunnel for the troubled star even though she says he'll have to put in a lot of work to restore his sparkle. 'His second act depends entirely on his willingness to be more grounded, maybe humbler, with accountability taken for what happened, which many will never forgive or forget either side' continued the expert. 'Fundamentally what made him famous in the first place, be that the good, bad or downright ugly, has changed and he has to work with that and find a way ahead'.

‘Torode was a soft target': The week MasterChef hit boiling point
In the summer of 2016, the cover of Hello! magazine bore a 'MasterChef wedding exclusive'. On the left was Gregg Wallace, grinning in a blue suit with a white rose in his buttonhole, holding the hand of his new bride, Anne-Marie. Next to her, Lisa Faulkner, the actress and former Celebrity MasterChef winner who had gone on to marry his co-star, John Torode. Next to Faulkner, with a matching flower in his buttonhole, was Wallace's best man, Torode. Wallace and Torode had been MasterChef's odd couple ever since they became hosts in 2005. They had first met in the 1990s on the London restaurant scene, when Torode was working at Quaglino's and Wallace was his veg supplier. By then, both were circling 50: Wallace was on his fourth marriage and Torode on his second. Slightly improbably, given where they had started, they had become two of the biggest names on British television. In the photograph, they look like a pair of old boys quietly revelling in having got very, very lucky in life. Surprising, then, that a year later, in 2017, Torode told a newspaper that in fact he and Wallace weren't close. 'It's funny, we've never been friends,' he told The Mirror. 'We've not been to each other's houses… He's so OCD, he wouldn't know what to do. He'd build it up in his mind for three days, and probably make himself quite sick, then he'd have an argument with his wife and not turn up. If I went to his house, he would feel like he wasn't in control.' Torode admitted they wouldn't even spend time together if they were filming abroad. 'If we go away to somewhere like South Africa, we do things separately. If we do go out for a drink, I'll invariably be at one end of a big old table and he'll be at the other. 'Once, we had a bit too much to drink and filming got called off. We ended up having a massive fight about one of the contestants, and he got really stubborn – it was ridiculous. We've had a couple of stand-offs over the years, about contestants, and I've just had to walk away from him.' Best men or remote colleagues – it's not clear which is the real story. Torode was sacked this week by Banijay, the production company that makes MasterChef, amid allegations he had made a racist remark. Until then, it had seemed that Wallace, who has had more than half of the 83 allegations levied against him upheld, was being cast as the wrong 'un; Torode was the innocent bystander. But while there is no suggestion that Torode has been accused of the same kind of allegations as Wallace, this latest chaotic chapter in the great unravelling of the BBC's flagship show, has muddied the waters for the Australian presenter. Torode, 59, is now facing claims he used the n-word at an after-show drinks in 2018, with the alleged incident reportedly coming to light during Banijay's own investigation into Wallace. The Sun also reported Torode had repeated lyrics from rapper Kanye West 's song Gold Digger, which contains a racial slur. The BBC said Torode had used 'an extremely offensive racist term', adding: 'We will not tolerate racist language of any kind. The Telegraph understands that Torode was the subject of multiple allegations, although only one was substantiated. On Monday, the celebrity chef said he had 'absolutely no recollection' of that alleged incident. 'I do not believe that it happened. However, I want to be clear that I've always had the view that any racial language is wholly unacceptable in any environment. I am shocked and saddened by the allegation, as I would never wish to cause anyone any offence.' The question remains, then, was Torode just another powerful man in the public eye whose bad behaviour went unchecked? Or is he, as some fear, collateral damage of a PR disaster? While Torode does, it now appears, have his critics within the MasterChef camp, some believe he has been mistreated, telling The Telegraph they were 'heartbroken' about the manner of his dismissal, as well as the doubts it has cast over the future of the show. 'People who have worked with him for a long time are feeling heartbroken about the way he has been treated,' says one insider. 'They are very upset that he's no longer on the show.' One source close to the show was shocked by the allegations which they said 'seemed very unlikely'. 'He's a very well-spoken man. Those aren't words that sit on his lips.' The source suggested Torode was collateral damage after the MasterChef fiasco, which saw Wallace accused of sexual misconduct, and left the BBC facing questions over its knowledge of his behaviour. 'It seems to me that this is the BBC getting tough on a soft target,' the source said, adding the presenter may have been a victim of over-sensitivity within the corporation in the wake of other recent scandals, like the broadcasting of anti-Semitic chants at Glastonbury. 'Who would have thought that John Torode would be a casualty of Israel-Palestine, which is basically what's happened.' In December, The Telegraph revealed BBC bosses were alerted to complaints about Wallace on at least four different shows over the course of a decade. Monday's report revealed that alongside the allegations made against Wallace over 19 years, there were also 10 made against other people, two of which were substantiated. On Tuesday afternoon, Torode released a statement confirming that one of the substantiated claims related to him. Wallace said this week he was 'deeply sorry for any distress' he caused. He has previously defended himself, saying he has recently been diagnosed with autism, but TV bosses had failed to 'investigate my disability', or 'protect me from what I now realise was a dangerous environment'. Some say Torode is being tarred with the same brush as his co-star. 'Up until this moment, I've never heard anything bad about John,' said one industry insider. While inappropriate behaviour by Wallace was claimed to be common knowledge, there has never, the source said, been chatter about Torode. 'I think Gregg was one of those poorly-kept secrets, whereas John hasn't been [associated with inappropriate behaviour].' Torode must at the very least have been witness to some of what one source described as the 'toxic' culture at MasterChef. The set might have had a 'glamorous veneer', the source said, but 'the reality was very different'. 'Everyone was too frightened to call out bad behaviour, even though everyone knew it was going on.' Aasmah Mir, the BBC presenter and former Celebrity MasterChef contestant, said that when Wallace made an inappropriate remark to her during filming – telling her to tell a BBC colleague she was a 'sexy b---h' – Torode failed to step in. 'What I know is Gregg Wallace used an incredibly inappropriate term, and John Torode didn't do anything,' she told ITV's Good Morning Britain. 'There was no emotion.' 'It was an uncomfortable experience. I remember feeling destabilised, my cheeks were burning. I remember thinking I don't know what happened there. No one said anything. And both Gregg Wallace and John Torode just looked completely blank, like nothing had happened.' One source close to the show told The Telegraph, Torode 'could be quite sharp... He was very good at managing up, knowing how to behave in the company of important people.' Another described him as 'a typical Aussie – a bit of a sledger when it came to jokes, and he could be very blunt in the way he addressed people'. 'That's the environment he grew up in,' the source said. 'The idea that Gregg was the only one whose comments could offend people is not right.' A fellow Australian who encountered Torode at an event organised by the Australian Embassy, put it even more bluntly, saying he was 'a total flog' – Australian slang for a pretentious, conceited person. Meanwhile, a source who worked with both Wallace and Torode, said that despite the way the pair have been portrayed, Torode was less popular than Wallace. 'Gregg, for all his faults, was a warm character and many people on MasterChef felt generously towards him even if they could see that some of his comments were inappropriate. There was less love and generosity felt towards John, definitely.' The Telegraph understands the pair have not spoken since Wallace was forced to step down in November. 'They had a really good on-screen partnership, but it stopped there,' says one source. 'They were never mates,' the source adds, casting new light on the Hello! photoshoot, which begins to look like more of a publicity stunt. Nevertheless, a friend of Wallace insisted that he took no pleasure in Torode's dismissal. 'He has said to me he was really upset that John has gone. He didn't want to see this happen to anybody else. There is no solace for him in John going.' Some industry insiders feel the show will ride this latest wave. 'It's a colossus, and you have to remember Britain is just one territory where it's shown. It's inconceivable that it would be scrapped. It's a very big deal, a key part of the schedule. I'd say it's pretty indestructible.' Others say the loss of Torode presents a crucial opportunity to breathe fresh air into a tired format, including, perhaps, with female presenters. 'The BBC were too slow to realise the show badly needed a reboot,' says one source. 'They needed to change it up five years ago. If they had, they wouldn't be in this position. 'There has long been a question about whether Gregg and John were the right people to lead it anyway. Now, they're in a position where they're going to have to bring it back from the brink and completely rebrand it. They need two new people to draw a line under the Gregg and John situation. And they have to get that choice right, with hosts who have real food knowledge, or it'll be over for the show.' What happens next for Torode remains to be seen. ITV is standing by him and will continue to broadcast the Saturday morning show, John and Lisa's Weekend Kitchen. In a statement on Instagram this week, Torode said he hadn't heard from the BBC or Banijay. 'I am seeing and reading that I have been sacked from MasterChef, and I repeat that I have no recollection of what I'm accused of.'

World's ten best holiday islands revealed – here's how to find the two in Europe
THE top 10 islands in the world have been revealed, from Italian paradise to popular Greek gems. Online travel agency, Expedia, has formed its 'Hot List' for islands across the world, judging them on standout stays, affordability, flights and appeal - and there's one in particular that's very familiar to readers. 7 7 The island of Paros has become a standout name in 2025. The Greek paradise was declared best in the world by Travel + Leisure - and has made it onto Expedia's Island Hot List too. Paros forms part of the Cyclades Islands surrounded by the likes of Naxos, Milos and Antiparos. We spoke to one holidaymaker who went to Paros recently, where she discovered beautiful beaches, traditional villages and a buzzing nightlife. She also raved about the delicious seafood, hidden clubs and party boats. Also on the list is Italy's Sardinia, which Expedia said boasts a "rugged coastline and hilltop villages." Sardinia is a large Italian island in the Mediterranean Sea, and there's almost no end to the beaches as it has over 1,000 miles worth of coastline. The standout island has attracted lots of holidaymakers over the years, including celebrities like George Clooney and Beyonce. One visitor discovered sun-drenched beaches where waiters deliver cocktails directly to sunbeds. On the island is even a little-known beach that has been compared to the Sahara Desert. I found the perfect adults-only hotel for an all-inclusive Greek island holiday 7 7 Found on the west coast of the Costa Verde coastline of the island is a beach called Spiaggia di Piscinas that has soft golden sands, clear blue waters. It's where you'll find some huge dunes that look like they belong in the desert, and they rise up to heights of 60 metres. These dunes are the reason it has been nicknamed 'Little Sahara of Italy'. Also on the list was Aruba, which was also recently revealed to be the safest island in the Caribbean Sea. Scoring 90 out of 100 - compared to the lowest being 34 for Puerto Rico - it is ranked one of the safest across the islands. Not only that, it's known by locals as 'One Happy Island'. It's not really a surprise because the island gets highs of 30C even in winter. The island is much drier than others that surround it as it sits just outside of the hurricane belt. Aruba is famous for having white sand beaches, and being home to Flamingo Beach where you can see the famous pink birds relaxing in shallow waters. 7 7 Koh Samui, Thailand 's second largest island also found a place on the Island Hot List. It's known for having incredible beaches, huge temples and vibrant nightlife. Thanks to a very well-known TV series, White Lotus, Koh Samui is even more on the map. The island also has an annual festival called Songkran which is a three-day celebration where people are armed with water pistols. The festival traditionally runs April 13-15, which just happens to be during Thailand's hottest season. One writer checked it out for herself and had an absolute blast. Expedia also found a rising interest in other islands, particularly for Brits like Jersey, Crete, Malta and Madeira. 7
