Jenna Ortega channels her inner Wednesday Addams in an eery gothic dress as she attends Paris premiere for the Netflix hit's second season
Jenna Ortega channeled her inner Wednesday Addams in a distressed gothic dress as attended the Paris premiere for the Netflix 's hit's second season in the French capital on Thursday. In the show, she plays the wily yet reserved protagonist who always manages to keep her cool under pressure. And Jenna channelled her starring character as she stepped out in a brown floor-length gown which featured a daringly high slit. Her gown featured a ruffled lining around the plunging neckline as she showcased her petite frame with a matching belt. She added inched to her statuesque frame as the actress slipped into a pair of towering brown platform heels. To accessorise, she kept in theme with her gothic ensemble as she wore an oversized cross necklace. The gothic comedy, which follows the antics of Wednesday Addams (played by Jenna), debuted on the streaming service in November 2022. It was quickly renewed for a second series in January 2023. It is one in a series of takes over the years on The Addams Family, the eccentric fictional old-money clan, famously macabre and gothic in manner and look. The second series of the Emmy-winning programme, executive produced and often directed by horror icon Tim Burton, 66, is set for release on 6 August 2025. And now, it has been announced that not only will Wednesday be back for a third series, but a spin-off programme is currently under discussion, according to Hollywood Reporter. Fans were delighted to hear the fate of the beloved show has been secured, taking to social media to express their excitement. Catherine Zeta-Jones posted on Instagram confirming the news: 'When Wednesday comes a better day. 'Wednesday season three. It's official... we shall return.' Her gown featured a ruffled lining around the plunging neckline as she showcased her petite frame with a matching belt One fan wrote in the comments section: 'And for many more seasons.'; 'I love this because then they can start filming soon and it won't be such a long pause between seasons! Or that's the hope!' The second series was announced in January 2023, but by the time it comes out later this year, it will have been more than two years in the making. The first series of Wednesday follows the titular troublemaker character after she is expelled and transferred to Nevermore Academy, a school for monstrous outcasts. Her cool, creepy manner and rebellious streak often see her in trouble and struggling to fit in. But after she discovers she is a psychic like her mother and applies her skills to solving a local murder case, she soon finds her stride. The programme boasts an impressive regular cast, with Game of Thrones' Gwendoline Christie and Narcos' Luis Guzman also starring. They feature as Nevermore headteacher Larissa Weems and Wednesday's father, Gomez Addams, respectively. The upcoming second series looks to be even more star-studded, with Lady Gaga, Joanna Lumley, Steve Buscemi, and Thandiwe Newton also joining the cast. Star Jenna and director Tim also worked together on Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the 2024 sequel to the original 1988 horror film starring Winona Ryder. And they have now told all about what fans can expect from the upcoming second series and the newly announced third instalment. Scream queen Jenna, who rose to fame in slashers Scream, X and Scream VI, was embroiled in controversy in recent months for comments she made during a podcast interview. She said she spent her time on the show 'changing lines' and 'had to put my foot down' because 'everything I had to play did not make sense for the character'. Jenna said she felt terrible about this and never meant it that way, simply meaning to say she improvised a lot and was permitted to. Tim sympathised with her, feeling the comments had been interpreted in a way she had not meant. But the pair revealed that after these events, Jenna is now a producer on the show. Co-creator Alfred Gough, who made the show with Miles Millar, said this made sense, as she is already so involved in every part of the show, as well as giving notes on the script, in a way he praised. Wednesday's first series pulled in a whopping 252million viewers globally, making it Netflix's biggest English-language series of all time. Alfred has now teased a spin-off: 'It's something we're definitely noodling; there are other characters we can look at.' Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria, meanwhile, added: 'There's a lot to explore in the Addams Family.' New cast member Joanna Lumley previously told Netflix news site Tudum: 'There's always something thrilling about working for Tim Burton. 'His whole mind takes him to a different world, and the world that they've created here for Wednesday and Nevermore and the family is just intoxicating. 'It's wonderful. I get to wear many, many huge wigs, one on top of the other — and lots of quite constraining clothes, so I love it.'

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Will Fergie finally strike gold with 'eco nappy'?
Her quest for financial independence has taken her on a dizzying journey during which she's sold everything from fountain pens to food blenders, been an ambassador for Weight Watchers, published numerous books – both for children and, more recently, Mills & Boon romances – and co-hosted a podcast which promised that 'no topic is off the table'. Now I can disclose that Sarah, Duchess of York, 65, is embracing a new commercial adventure with enthusiasm and her trademark spirit. Fergie, who had two daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, during her marriage to the Duke of York, suggests that her age is entirely to her advantage as she immerses herself in a whole new world – as a producer of nappies. Not any old nappy, I should stress. 'I've created an eco-friendly nappy,' Sarah tells me. 'I think it's very exciting, being a grandmother, because the more grandchildren I have, the more urgency there is for compostable diapers.' The duchess is a grandmother to two girls – Beatrice's daughters Sienna, three, and Athena, six months – and two boys – Eugenie's sons, August, four, and Ernest, two. 'It's called the Greater Good,' Fergie says of the project, before explaining that the nappy is not exclusively her creation but one which has emerged from a collaboration with Dr Jason Graham-Nye and his wife Kim – once named among Fortune magazine's Ten Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs. 'We have invented the first compostable diaper,' adds Fergie, explaining that it's produced in Samoa. Its capacity to decompose in 'compostable' fashion means that unlike most disposable nappies, often laden with microplastics, it needn't be dumped in landfill. 'There are 380,000 nappies changed a minute, so it's a really good solution,' says the duchess. Sounds more promising than media investment company Gate Ventures, of which she was a director. It lost an estimated £19million before being forced into administration in 2020. When he captured Prince William and Catherine's wedding, Hugo Burnand secured obedience from page boys by doling out sweets. But the society snapper quells nerves in adults in a very different manner. 'I ask them to say 's***',' he reveals on his podcast, Double Exposure, noting that it takes them 'by surprise'. Jamil's warning after being followed on walk The Duchess of Sussex's friend Jameela Jamil has issued a stark warning to women to be 'vigilant' after a group of men targeted her as she attempted to walk her dog in London this week. 'Some bloke followed me on his bike up and down the street, then when he realised I had clocked him, he got on the phone and called his mates who then came after me,' says the actress, pictured left. 'It was 8pm, in a crowded area, and I was wearing a black tracksuit and no makeup.' The privately-educated Londoner, 39, who previously lived in Los Angeles with her musician boyfriend James Blake, says she has been left with a growing resentment towards men. 'Many of my walks have turned into a nightmare. In a split second, a stranger decided it would be okay to destroy my life.' She warns women and girls 'not to be on your phone and keep one headphone out. Get number plates and registrations. Mistrust everyone and suspect every man'. One might think pending fatherhood would cure Levison Wood's itchy feet, but it appears not. The TV explorer, 43, who is expecting his first child with girlfriend Ana Protasio any day now, has set his sights on his next adventure. 'I'm hoping to head to South America this autumn,' he tells the Country Life podcast. Levison wants to explore the continent by motorbike, making it far from a family-friendly trip. Let's hope Ana understands. Diana's niece to wed after 10-year romance At long last, Princess Diana's niece Eliza Spencer is engaged to her tech executive boyfriend, Channing Millerd. After almost a decade of courtship, the model, 33, revealed Millerd, 31, who has a son from a previous relationship, went down on bended knee during a romantic trip to Santorini, Greece. Earl Spencer's daughter can be seen wearing the sparkler Miller proposed with in this picture she posted online. 'Forever and ever,' she wrote alongside the snap. A destination wedding could be on the cards for the pair, as Eliza previously said: 'We feel drawn to Italy, especially somewhere by the ocean – that feels so romantic to us.' Who says that an association with Pippa Middleton, the Princess of Wales's younger sister, doesn't come with benefits? Certainly not members of her local council who, I can disclose, have given Pippa and her husband, hedge-fund manager James Matthews, the green light to establish a nursery at Bucklebury Farm. The couple snapped up the West Berkshire property for £1.5million in 2020. The nursery – for children aged between nine months and five years – will deliver 'strong social benefits', concludes the council, noting that there is a local shortage of 'early years places'. The prospect of a smile from Pippa, 41, is likely to perk up fathers doing the school run, so it seems only fair to warn them that she and James, 49, live a few miles away at the Georgian manor house they bought for £15million in 2022. Strictly pro is fan favourite Nadiya Bychkova won the Best Female Personality Award at the National Reality TV Awards She has yet to win the glitterball trophy on Strictly Come Dancing, but Nadiya Bychkova is enjoying success elsewhere. The Ukrainian dancer, 35, won the Best Female Personality Award at this year's National Reality TV Awards, which took place at Porchester Hall in London. She tells me: 'It was a complete surprise to win the award. There were some big names on the list, so there was a combination of laughter, thankfulness and disbelief when my name was read out.' Bychkova, pictured, adds: 'I do feel very humbled that people have voted for me. It's really special to know that they have taken the time to do that, and it means a lot. 'Hopefully, I get the chance to add a glitterball to this trophy by the end of the year.'

Veronica, known for her skits about Middle Eastern stereotypes, made headlines on Thursday for the stunt, which saw her attempt to rally a group of influencers. She said she 'doesn't know how the world would survive' without influencers, and moaned she was 'sick and tired' of being treated 'like a joke'.

Veronica also came under fire in December 2024 when she said it was 'hard work' being an influencer during a viral interview at the Sydney TikTok Awards.
