David Beckham to guest edit edition of Country Life Magazine
The former England captain and businessman will join the editorial team for the October 22 edition of the magazine with the aim of celebrating what the countryside means to him and his family. He follows in the footsteps of Royal Family members who previously joined the editor-in chief Mark Hedges at the helm, including the King, the Princess Royal and the Queen. David Beckham and Mark Hedges (Editor-in-Chief of Country Life Magazine) photographed at RHS Chelsea Flower Show (Courtney Hockley/Country Life magazine/PA) Beckham said: 'I am honoured to have been invited to guest edit an edition of a magazine that I have always admired and read. 'I am really looking forward to working with the editorial team to produce an issue that will celebrate what the countryside and the great British landscape means to me and my family.' This comes as Beckham is to be awarded a knighthood in the King's Birthday Honours, according to reports by The Sun. The football star regularly documents his life in the countryside by posting pictures and videos on his Instagram including him harvesting vegetables, gardening and his flock of chickens. Mark Hedges, Country Life editor-in-chief, said: 'I know he has a deep love of the countryside, which has grown since he retired as a professional footballer, although he is, of course, still extremely busy as a businessman and an ambassador for a host of causes, such as Unicef and The King's Foundation, as well as being co-owner of Inter Miami CF in the US and Salford City Football Club in the UK. David Beckham turns 50 this year (Victoria Jones/PA) 'As someone who is passionate about the countryside, I'm excited to see what his special commemorative issue will bring.' The one-off edition aims to highlight how the countryside has played an important part in Beckham's life. It will feature his favourite view, his best-loved recipe and spotlight his rural champions, including the craftsmen and woman who helped shape his home in the Cotswolds. Beckham, who played for his country 115 times, is the only Englishman to score at three different World Cups and his career included the treble-winning campaign of 1998-99, when Manchester United won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. He earned the third highest number of England caps of all time for the men's team, and was captain on 59 occasions. The former winger married Spice Girl Victoria, also known as Posh Spice, in 1999.

Boden's new swimsuit looks just like the one Sophie wore in the Mamma Mia movie
"Very figure-flattering on D cups and plenty of coverage" If you're after a swimsuit that mixes summer style with clever built-in support, Boden's new Levanzo Halter Swimsuit in Blue Dahlia is worth a look. With its flattering neckline and Mediterranean print, we think it looks just like the iconic blue and white suit Sophie wore in Mamma Mia. You know, when she was dancing around on the rocks. Her exact swimsuit from the movie is an out-of-stock Michael Kors one, which would have set you back hundreds of pounds. However, Boden's Levanzo suit is on offer for £76. Better yet, use the code JM7D and you can nab it for £64.60 thanks to a summer promotion the website has this week. The halter style of the suit has a definite retro charm. With a ruched front and supportive lining, it's designed to shape without squeezing, and several Boden customers have said the fit is particularly flattering. One reviewer shared, 'Very figure flattering (D cup plenty coverage). I bought the long after reading reviews (I'm 5"5 average body length) and it fitted well. I like a decent chest coverage.' That same customer went back for another colour– a clear vote of confidence. The print itself is Blue Dahlia, a soft floral design in oceanic tones of blue and white. It's a pattern that works equally well poolside or on a beach, and it's not too loud. Paired with a sarong or simple shorts, it has that relaxed, Grecian-holiday appeal without feeling overly styled. In terms of sizing, there have been mixed comments. One shopper noted, 'Far too small,' while another said, 'I ordered two sizes (my usual size and a size up) and went with the bigger size as it gives a bit more chest coverage but would say it's roughly true to size.' So if you're between sizes or after a bit more coverage, sizing up might be the better option. It's also worth mentioning the attention to quality. 'Quality feels great (although I haven't used it yet),' said one reviewer. 'Great customer service — my return was processed very quickly.' The swimsuit is made from recycled materials too, so there's a feel-good factor that goes beyond just the style. For those wondering whether it's a swimsuit for swimming or just for show, the feedback is reassuring. 'Love this costume, really flattering,' one woman wrote. 'I am 52 and a size 12 with a bit of a belly. I felt great in this and think it will get a lot of wear. I think it's fine for swimming too.' It's good to know this one isn't just about looking good on a sunlounger. The price point is a little high, so it's not the cheapest on the high street, but with Boden's track record for durability and customer care, it's likely to last beyond one holiday season. However, if you want to copy Amanda Seyfried's Mamma Mia style, we also love Cupshe's Catalina Crush Floral One-Piece Swimsuit, £28, which has a similar pattern and cut.
