Jude Law, 52, cuts a trendy figure in a beige knitted cardigan and white linen trousers as he steps out to meet pals
The English actor, 52, opted for a beige knitted cardigan layered over a low-scoop white vest top, which exposed some of his chest hair.
Cutting a trendy figure, Jude paired it with a pair of airy white linen trousers and blue suede shoes.
Carrying his iPad under his arm, he accessorised with a stylish pair of black-tinted sunglasses.
Jude appeared in top spirits as he finished a meeting in the city before heading to his next destination.
His outing comes just the day after his ex Sienna Miller, headed to the Shane Cooper Clinic in London for a series of treatments.
The actress, 42, who dated Jude for five years, underwent a combination of advanced technologies to maintain her glowing complexion.
Shane posted a stunning snap of Sienna showing off her dewy skin after her treatment.
Dressed in a grey top, the beauty beamed at the camera as her make-up-free skin took centre stage.
Alongside the post, Shane penned: 'Sienna has been a long-time client for many years and it's always such a pleasure catching up.
'We've maintained her skin with a bespoke combination of advanced technologies and my personal expertise. She also uses products from my @shanecooperskincare range at home to keep that signature glow between treatments. Just adore her.'
It comes after Jude revealed he's 'moved on' from the time in his life when he was engaged to Sienna.
The actor told VARIETY 'that time in his life is now over,' after his relationship was the centre of huge public attention.
Jude and Sienna split in 2006 after his affair with his children's nanny Daisy Wright came to public knowledge in 2005, and the actress said in 2020 that she found the scandal 'really hard'.

Speaking about the time he and Sienna were engaged, Jude said: 'That time is now over, and I've moved on from it. And so has, fortunately, the attention of the photographers and the prying eyes on me.
'But I've had to learn to live in a certain way that keeps them at bay. And I have to handle my kids' and my partner's privacy in the same way.'
Sienna and Jude first met on the set of their film Alfie, and the pair got engaged on Christmas Day in 2004 after nearly a year of dating.
She broke off the engagement following news of his affair, with the pair separating in November 2006 after failing to salvage their relationship.
They reconnected in late 2009 when both starred on Broadway, with Sienna even spending Christmas with Jude and three of his children in Barbados, but they broke up once again in February 2011.
Before meeting Sienna, Jude was married to Sadie Frost -with whom he shares three of his children son Rafferty, 28, Iris, 24, and Rudy, 22 - but they got a divorce in 2003, after six years of marriage.
Jude is now married to psychologist Phillipa Coan, who he was first spotted with at the Hay literary festival in 2015.
The couple got married at Old Marylebone Town Hall in London in 2019, before partying in Mayfair – three months after the actor announced their engagement. They have two children together.
The actor also has a daughter Sophia, 15, with model Samantha Burke and Ada, nine, with musician Catherine Harding.

How Princess Eugenie is following the Duchess of Sussex style playbook
Among a sea of celebrities, socialites and young royals in attendance at Royal Ascot last month, one in particular stood out as especially stylish. While the Princess of Wales was unable to attend for health reasons, her husband's cousin, Princess Eugenie, seemingly picked up her style baton, looking incredibly chic on two separate occasions. Arriving on the fourth day of the races, the 12th-in-line to the throne wore a coffee and cream coloured two-piece skirt and top, with her wide-brimmed white hat giving her an Audrey Hepburn-esque appeal. Then, on the fifth day, she chose a vivid orange midi dress by Whistles, featuring a fitted bodice and flared skirt, which she accessorised with her go-to Aquazzura Bow Tie heels and corresponding headpiece. And it's not the first time that Eugenie has looked more put together in recent weeks. In early May, she also looked notably chic at the Chelsea Flower Show, wearing a Rebecca Vallance floral dress, nude-coloured mules by trendy brand Staud and Sophie Lis's playful mushroom earrings. Then, at the Tate Modern 25th Anniversary Fundraising Gala, she chose a white Broderie Anglaise Self Portrait dress, while for a visit to a Salvation Army safehouse she wore a Veronica Beard denim midi dress with Peter Pan collar. For some royal style-watchers, Eugenie's new look seems to be borrowing heavily from the Duchess of Sussex's sartorial playbook, and not just because they share a love of the same designers (including Rebecca Vallance, Aquazzura and Sophie Lis in particular). 'It's European summer, a season where royals usually embrace florals, pastels and classic English countryside styling, but Princess Eugenie seems to be taking a different approach, one that feels unmistakably Californian,' says the anonymous poster behind Instagram's popular Royal Fashion Daily account. 'At public engagements, from Royal Ascot to more casual daytime visits, she's shifted towards a wardrobe of earthy, neutral tones – olive, taupe, cream and sand. The palette calls to mind Meghan's now-iconic '50 shades of beige,' a soft, minimalist style that became her signature from her Sussex days through to her life on the west coast.' And it's not just the designers or the colour palette that is reminiscent of Meghan, it's the unfussy silhouettes and seeming adoption of a 'quiet luxury' aesthetic. 'Eugenie's leaning into a quieter kind of elegance, one that prioritises ease and polish over ornament,' continues Royal Fashion Daily. 'It's a style that Meghan has long championed: clean lines, refined cuts and a sense of quiet confidence. In one recent appearance, Eugenie wore a sleeveless olive green dress with a belted waist – structured but relaxed, and entirely free of fuss. For another event, she chose a navy midi dress with subtle tailoring and no embellishment, paired simply with nude heels. It's a look built on clarity, not complexity.' While it's unclear whether or not she's worked with a stylist on her current wardrobe revamp, Eugenie has previously been known to work with stylists. In 2011, it was revealed that she and her elder sister Princess Beatrice had worked with stylist Charlie Anderson for a year on overhauling their look following the cruel trolling they received about their outfits at the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. The sisters went on to work with Mary Fellowes, who promised them she'd get them in the Vogue best dressed list. 'And I did,' she told the Telegraph in 2021. 'I'm very proud of them for that because I think they'd had quite a mixed style journey until then.' Then, in the 2020s, it was reported that Eugenie had worked with Irish stylist Sarah Price on her wedding trousseau, which included bespoke Peter Pilotto and Zac Posen dresses. If she's not working with a stylist, it could also just be via osmosis that she's been inspired by Meghan. After all, of all the members of the Royal Family, Eugenie is known for being the only one to still keep in close contact with the Sussexes, often visiting them in California. For Royal Fashion Daily, the inspiration is obvious. 'Whether it's a structured dress, a minimal co-ord or a bold pop of colour offset by soft accessories, Eugenie's fashion evolution is clear,' says the page. 'She's stepping away from traditional royal tropes and towards a new kind of modern, understated and confident style, one that is quietly influenced by the woman who helped rewrite the rules of royal style.' Whether or not anything that Meghan uploads on her ShopMy ends up in Eugenie's wardrobe remains to be seen… Five ways that Eugenie and Meghan are working from the same style playbook The stealth wealth colour palette Meghan is known for her love of greige-y neutrals, and at Royal Ascot, it appeared that Eugenie was embracing them too. Her beige top, last seen in 2015, worn over a white dress, was very Meghan-coded and stood out in the sea of pastels. The poppy red When she does use colour, Meghan chooses her shades wisely, and her rich poppy red Carolina Herrera dress is a case in point. She first wore it back in 2021, but had it altered before she wore it again last year. Eugenie took a leaf from that book, again, at Royal Ascot, in a much more affordable Whistles dress which looked elegant with a matching hat. The Sophie Lis jewellery Meghan first wore the jewellery designer's 'Love' pendant in 2020, and went on to wear it in 2022 at the Invictus Games and on screen in With Love, Meghan. Eugenie is also a loyal fan, having worn Lis's 'Fallen Star' hoops on several occasions, and more recently, the Sophie Lis 'Mushroom' earrings too. The emerald drape It's not just that they've worn the same colour here, it's that both have chosen styles which feature Grecian-inspired draping for an elevated take on eveningwear. The Aquazzura heels Meghan has long worn Aquazzura heels, distinctive for their cut-outs and bow detail at the heel. So it was easy to spot Eugenie wearing the same brand at Royal Ascot. Perhaps they've traded notes on the most comfortable heels to wear for long periods of time?

My husband wants me to pretend to be his SISTER during sex and it's freaking me out – have our kinky games gone too far?
WHAT'S the weirdest thing you've ever been asked to do in bed? I've had some pretty out-there requests (even by my standards), but one still haunts me. 4 I'm all for roleplay, but an ex once asked me to be his stepmum — and since he actually had one who looked a bit like me, it creeped me out! So when I got this letter from a reader whose husband asked her to roleplay as his stepsister, it took me right back to that moment. She has my full sympathy. It's tricky to balance not kink-shaming with being comfortable in your own sex life - but I'm up for the challenge. I'm The Sun's Sexpert, and this week in my no-holds-barred sex series, I'll show you how to fend off an awkward kinky request without going back to boring sex. Q. A few months back, me and my hubby agreed to try out some role play to spice things up. We've been married for six years and sex had gone a bit stale. At first, it worked a treat and we were at it like rabbits, but now he's suggesting I pretend to be his stepsister and it's freaking me out! He assures me it's just a harmless common fetish and to be fair some of my mates have said the same, but to me it just feels weird - especially since he actually has a sister. I love my husband, we have a great marriage and I don't want to push him away in the bedroom just when things were heating up again. How can I steer him away from this fantasy without going back to the vanilla sex we had before? How can I bring up kinks with my partner? Georgie says: 'HAVING fantasies is completely normal, and I'm sure his stepsister one is innocent enough - but I understand why it's made you uncomfortable. It's a common theme in mainstream porn, so it's likely he's just picked it up from there and became fixated on the idea. That said, since he actually has a sister, it probably feels a bit too close to home for you — and that's valid. The key here is communication. Being open and honest is essential for great sex and a healthy relationship. How you respond will shape what happens next. You don't want to blurt out, 'God, that's creepy as hell, babe,' as that could make him shut down. He might start feeling ashamed or like a weirdo, and stop sharing things with you - which could cause issues both in and out of the bedroom. 4 That said, it's absolutely okay to say no. If something doesn't sit right with you, you shouldn't feel pressured to go along with it - and any decent partner should respect that. But just because you're not into this particular fantasy doesn't mean role play is off the table entirely. Here are my tips for keeping things exciting without going down that route… Secret fantasies Being able to say what you like and don't like is key to great sex - but how you say it matters just as much. It's important to create a safe space where your partner feels comfortable opening up. I love roleplay but an ex once asked me to be his stepmum and he actually had one who looked a bit like me! Georgie CulleySun Sexpert Never mock or laugh if they share an unusual kink or fantasy. Instead, use positive language - try something like: 'I love it when we do X, Y, Z, but I'm not really into that kind of roleplay. I'd be up for trying this instead…' It's all about keeping the conversation open, respectful, and focused on mutual pleasure. Set boundaries With any kind of kinky play, it's essential to set clear boundaries and agree on a safe word - something either of you can use to stop immediately if things become uncomfortable. Roleplay often involves exploring power dynamics, and can sometimes veer into BDSM territory. That's why having a safe word or signal in place is so important - it ensures both partners feel secure, respected, and in control at all times. What sent my ex wild Roleplay is a brilliant way to explore fantasies. For many, slipping into a uniform and taking on a different persona can help them fully embrace the part. An ex of mine went wild when I dressed up as a maid and spent the whole day teasing him — doing the housework in a skimpy outfit, but not letting him rip it off until later. It was the ultimate slow-burn foreplay, and it drove him mad in the best way. Make it fun by involving each other in the process — shop together for outfits (whether you're trying doctor and patient, police officer and defendant, or something else entirely) and see what sparks your interest. Do you enjoy being dominant, submissive, or a bit of both - known as a switch? Don't be afraid to experiment with different roles and, most importantly, enjoy the ride. Filthy fiction Stuck for ideas? Try watching an erotic film or steamy bonkbuster for inspiration. Fancy a Regency-style romp? Pop on Bridgerton for outfit ideas and boudoir makeover inspo. If TV's not your thing, pick up an erotic novel. Fifty Shades is a classic intro to BDSM, but there's a whole world of saucy books out there to spark your imagination. Want to up the ante? Take turns reading the naughtiest chapters aloud to each other - it's a guaranteed way to get in the mood. 'One night stands' with a twist If dressing up isn't your thing, don't worry - roleplay doesn't have to involve costumes. It can simply be about creating a new scenario. Taking sex out of the bedroom is a great way to shake things up, especially in a long-term relationship where you want to reignite that just met spark. One of my favourite roleplays is dressing up in a sexy outfit, heading to a bar, and having my partner meet me there as if we're strangers. He has to chat me up like it's a first date - then we book into a hotel for a cheeky 'one night stand'. It's playful, exciting, and adds a whole new energy to your sex life.

I worked on The Big Breakfast - one presenter hated the chaos on set and there's a simple reason we could NEVER make a show like it now
A former The Big Breakfast worker has lifted the lid on the 'shambolic' scenes on set - and the simple reason a show like it could never be made today. Beverley Cuddy is the editor of Dogs Today magazine and has appeared on the show numerous times with canine-related content. The Big Breakfast first aired in 1992, redefining morning television with its contagious energy and chaotic charm. Broadcast live from a real house in East London, the Channel 4 show marked a radical departure from the polished presenters and professional scripts of traditional breakfast shows. Instead, the daytime slot relied on a faster paced, slapstick humour and unpredictable antics to draw viewers in. The show launched the careers of an array of presenters, including Chris Evans, Gaby Roslin, Johnny Vaughan and Denise Van Outen. It also featured appearances from Hollywood A-listers, like Britney Spears, Samuel L. Jackson and Beyoncé. Speaking on behalf of Smooth Spins, journalist Beverley said the show would never work today owing to its 'shambolic' nature. 'It was so wonderfully chaotic and shambolic,' she said. 'Nowadays, you'd have to sign so many releases, and it would be a health and safety nightmare. It was a great time in television, and I look back on it fondly.' Beverley described an incident when her magazine was running a campaign to stop cosmetic tail docking, and the Big Breakfast producers decided to do a 'Rear Of The Year' segment showing dogs' natural tails. 'They had a massive garden, so they encouraged us to invite as many dogs as possible,' she said. 'The night before the segment, the man who ran the actual Rear Of The Year threatened to sue. 'It caused a bit of drama, and we had to scramble around and come up with a new name and rebrand everything.' Beverley told how, once, the producers wanted her to help with a prank on journalist Esther Rantzen. 'She was hosting a lot of shows that celebrated dogs who could do amazing things, so they thought it would be funny if we presented her with a load of dogs who couldn't do anything. 'They also wanted one of the dogs to be a cat, so my deputy Claire insisted her cat Nobby go on,' Beverley continued. 'He was stressed during the journey to the house, so he peed all over her, and then he ran off during the segment. I think Claire got so stressed, so she told the presenter Zoe Ball to f*** off live on air.' But the show bosses embraced the chaos, and Beverley insisted the 'loved it when things went wrong.' 'No one was precious,' she added. 'The presenters were all normal and got on with everyone on set. 'Some of the presenters, like Paul O'Grady and Mark Little, were natural comedians, so they rose to the challenge.' But, according to Beverley, not every brain behind the show was comfortable with the madness. 'Zoe Ball was a bit more of a traditional presenter, so she always seemed a bit stressed when things didn't go to plan.' Of presenter Paul O'Grady, Beverley said the 'kind and genuine' drag queen and comedian was wonderful to work with. 'He was amazing as Lily [Savage, his drag persona] and so quick-witted. If anything went wrong, he handled it like a pro. 'You could tell back then how much he loved dogs, so it was wonderful that he went on to be involved so heavily with them.' When asked what the presenters were like off camera, Beverley responded: 'I went on the show so much that I worked with pretty much all the different hosts throughout the years. Everyone was really lovely and charming.' A special feature of the Big Breakfast show was the London brick house in which it was filmed. An eccentric location for an equally eccentric programme, Beverley calls the filming site 'dingy' and 'grim'. 'I have no idea why they picked that location,' she laughed. 'It was a dingy house and not in great condition. 'It was not photogenic, and the bits you didn't see off camera were worse. It was dirty and certainly not flash. 'I don't ever remember there being space for make-up artists or anything like that. It was cramped, and there were so many windows that they probably affected the lighting. The location made everything harder.' Beverley remembers one of the more memorable segments from the show where the focus was dogs that look like real people, based on a feature her magazine had run. 'The Big Breakfast loved it, so we were tasked with finding dogs that looked like the presenters. 'We found a red Griffon Bruxellois that looked like Chris Evans and a beautiful Afghan Hound that was Gabby Roslin. 'We brought the dogs to the house and, during an ad break, the dogs took the place of the presenters. They all behaved amazingly well. 'We also did this wild segment around the time of a general election, where we had to ask everyone at Crufts how their dogs would vote. 'We had a ballot boxer, which was a ballot box in the shape of a dog, and we invited politicians to be interviewed and tell us their dogifestos.' Beverley's time on the show was not without its star-studded moments. For one competition segment, she was on a judging panel with 'someone from Pink Floyd', and the host was Paul O'Grady as Lily Savage. And The Big Breakfast even saw young stars before catching their big break. 'I'm not sure if our paths crossed on The Big Breakfast, but Tom Hardy was on the show as a young model and must have seen our segments because he reached out and was desperate to get his dogs in our magazine,' Beverley remembered. 'None of us knew who he was at the time, but he'd call us every week. We kept fobbing him off, but then we agreed to let a work experience girl interview him. So that was Tom Hardy's first big interview.' It was not all glamour behind the scenes, Beverley says, and the guests were subjected to an experience as 'dingy' as the house. 'Some shows have green rooms, but The Big Breakfast had a rather dingy portacabin we were all crowded into. 'It was quite shabby. There was no hierarchy, and you were lucky if you had a cup of tea.' Among the eclectic mix of presenters, though, things were good. Beverley said Gabby Roslin and Chris Evans were 'so close.' She added: 'They were practically like brother and sister, and you could tell they really worked well as a pair.' As for Beverley herself, who became involved with the show through her friendship with newsreader Peter Smith, she got on best with presenter Chris. 'We still talk even now,' she said. 'Funnily enough, he reached out to me a few years after he'd left The Big Breakfast because he'd got a dog who became ill and sought the help of a vet who was doing pioneering surgery. 'He was so impressed, he asked me if Dogs Today would interview the vet. That vet turned out to be Noel Fitzpatrick, aka the Supervet. So that was a nice start to his now amazing career.'
