Ellie Goulding showed off her sensational figure in a triangle black bikini while holidaying in Florence. The singer, 38, took to Instagram on Wednesday to give fans an insight into her Italian summer trip, including attending artist Tracey Emin 's Sex and Solitude exhibition in Florence. Ellie started off her day by heading to the art exhibition - which runs until July 20 - at Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi. She then stripped down to a skimpy bikini to bask in the Florence sun, displaying her impressively tone torso in a selfie. Ellie also sported a pair of sunglasses as she pouted and pulled back her blonde locks in the snap. She then shared snaps from later in the day where she changed into an elegant white satin floral dress, complete with lack lace trims. It comes after Ellie shared a racy snap as she relaxed on a sun lounger on Monday, taking a selfie while lying on a blue striped towel and seen sporting a cream baseball cap. In another snap shared the day before, Ellie's toned arms were on display as she stepped out in a white vest and low-rise pleated skirt. She paired the chic ensemble with blacks stilettos featuring a gold brooch as she posed in a stone archway. It comes just days after Ellie showed off her toned arms in an elegant linen dress as she arrived at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club for day 11 of Wimbledon. The British singer looked incredible in the £1,320 white and grey striped number by Tod's as she took her seat in the Royal Box alongside A-list guests at SW19 on Thursday. Ellie showcased her toned arms - the result of her gruelling exercise regime - in the sleeveless dress which she teamed with a £1,100 grey handbag by the designer and matching summery heeled sandals.

Tracey Emin shares powerful topless snap showing her stoma bag as she marks her 62nd birthday after extensive bladder cancer surgery
Tracey Emin shared a powerful topless snap showing her stoma bag as she marked her 62nd birthday over the weekend after extensive bladder cancer surgery. The artist marked the milestone by sharing the empowering picture as she cleaned a pool and said she wanted to celebrate 'being alive'. Tracey found she had a tumour in her bladder in June 2020 and was suffering with very aggressive squamous cell cancer, which surgeons feared would kill her in months if it spread to her lymph nodes. Tracey then announced in 2021 that she was cancer free. She penned alongside her birthday post: 'It's been five years since my life changing surgery to beat a very bad nasty uncontrollable cancer. 'Against all the odds, I beat it. I fought it with all my heart and soul because I wanted to live. I would have hated to die then. So much more I want and need to do.' Emin continued: 'My love for art and my home town of Margate has in the last few years had a chance to shine through. 'I love everything I'm doing here and how the town is such a brilliant, creative, pumping art house. I love that I've been sober for five years. I never want to be drunk again. 'I love being a Dame. I love my cats, Teacup and Pancake, and I love my friends. I'm so lucky to be surrounded by such good people. Really, I've never had it so good.' She concluded: 'Thank you everyone for all your love and support, especially over the last five years when I truly needed to feel loved and wanted.' She underwent a series of major operations in 2020 after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of bladder cancer during lockdown. Medics removed her bladder, urethra, lymph nodes and parts of her intestine and vagina to prevent the tumour from spreading. She was fitted with a stoma pouch, an opening on the abdomen, to allow urine to be diverted out of the body and disposed of via a urostomy bag. Tracey has been frank about adapting to life post-surgery and often shares candid updates about her health on social media. In an old Instagram post, she wrote: 'This is my stoma. Most people have never seen one. It's something I'm supposed to hide forever.' She added: 'It's part of my intestine attached to the outside of my body. Without it being there and functioning correctly, I will die.' '[It's] live flesh. Fragile and delicate. Surrounded by scar tissue and swollen puffy fatty flesh. 'I have almost total muscle wastage in my core abdomen, stomach. My body will never be the same. 'To be honest I find wearing the bag quite depressing. Nothing cool about carrying a bag of p*** around with you. 'But it's life.. my life now. Many disabilities can not be seen. But I thought I'd show you mine.'

The King displays his artistic talent in this smart new exhibition
Gulp! Sometimes, as an art critic, you need to be severe. But what if the thing you're scrutinising isn't by a professional artist but by the King? Highgrove from the Thyme Walk (2000) is a pencil drawing by His Majesty King Charles III, and one of more than 50 exhibits in The Power of Drawing, a smart new show marking the 25th anniversary of the Royal Drawing School in east London, which he helped to found. Displayed a few sheets down from drawings by Antony Gormley and Tracey Emin, it appears on the other side of a large window from a pair of charcoal landscapes by David Hockney. Exalted company, indeed. Does it hold its own? At risk of sounding like a toady, it kind of does. An annotated study of the tonal values of a gentle vista (looking back, across the garden, towards his Gloucestershire home), it's animated, in the foreground, by swift, frisky strokes denoting low shrubbery or flowers. Mostly, though, His Majesty seems preoccupied in this drawing (on which he worked when he was still the Prince of Wales) with the dark, stark structure of an imposing tree that semi-obscures the Georgian building behind. Deploying arrows, he records various details: a 'v. dark trunk', 'dark foliage' in places, 'light green' leaves. With blotches along two edges of pale blue and yellow watercolour, it's evidently a working drawing for a painting – and a demonstration of his belief that close observational drawing is 'one of the most direct ways of engaging with the world'. Even the bespectacled student beside me, copying Gormley's image of a silhouetted figure seemingly with Popeye's forearms, raises an eyebrow upon discovering the identity of the draughtsman responsible for this Highgrove sketch: 'It's actually pretty skilled,' he smiles. Charles's drawing will attract attention, but it shouldn't drown out the wider merits of this engaging show, which assembles drawings by 25 alumni and 25 'creatives', including Tim Burton, the American filmmaker, the Canadian-American singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright, and the British illustrator Quentin Blake (who contributes a characteristically loose and playful doodle of a man conversing with a stork). The architect Norman Foster is represented, like the King, by an annotated sketch – in his case, from 1959, depicting the interior of a chapel by Le Corbusier in eastern France. Apple's former chief design officer Jony Ive displays two impressive efforts executed when he was only 14 years old, including a sleekly precise 'observational drawing' of a Pyrex measuring jug. Above all, the exhibition – which reflects drawing's astonishing variety (Cornelia Parker even presents a 'drawing' magicked out of wire made from melted-down lead bullets) – reveals how much has changed since the school opened in a former warehouse at the turn of the millennium. In those days, the heyday of the Young British Artists, conceptualism was still rampant. Life studios were closing, and traditional methods were under threat. Yet, the list of alumni participating in this show boasts several names with considerable cachet now (Somaya Critchlow, Christina Kimeze, Jake Grewal), as figuration – often of a fantastical bent, fathoming internal (i.e., psychological and emotional) subjects, as much as documenting external views – has returned to vogue.

Princess Eugenie is a vision in white as she shows off new toned look at Tate Modern's 25th anniversary gala- days after glam Royal Ascot appearance
Princess Eugenie has made another showstopping appearance as the royal stepped out for Tate Modern's 25th anniversary fundraising gala in London, days after she attended Royal Ascot with her family. The younger daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York, was a vision in white as she showed off her new toned physique in a summery co-ord set at the party on Wednesday, June 25. Eugenie, 35, who turned heads in a chic crop top and white skirt at the Berkshire racecourse last week, embraced her new style after the mother-of-two got in 'the best shape of her life. For today's event, Eugenie picked a broderie anglaise white skirt that she paired with a fit-and-flare sleeveless top that was cinched at the waist. She swept her brown locks into a chic updo and kept her makeup to a minimum as temperatures in the London rose to a sweltering 26 degrees on Wednesday. Eugenie finished her look with a pair of open-toed rose gold sandals and an orange evening bag as she was spotted posing for photographs at the prestigious Bankside art gallery. Other notable guests included Mick Jagger's glamorous ex-wife, activist Bianca Jagger, and artists Dame Tracey Emin, Sir Grayson Perry, and Sonia Boyce. Also present at the gallery's fundraising gala as part of its 25th anniversary celebrations were Lady Helen Tayor and her husband Tim Taylor as well as former Bond star Daniel Craig. Princess Eugenie has made another showstopping appearance as the royal stepped out for Tate Modern's 25th anniversary fundraising gala in London, days after she attended Royal Ascot with her family. It comes after Princess Eugenie's glamorous appearance at Royal Ascot last weekend, with the royal dramatically switching up her style for the glitzy event. Instead of her usual flowing frocks, Eugenie chose to highlight her slim physique in somewhat of an unusual choice for a royal - a crop top. The 35-year-old posed proudly in the short, brown top and cinched, high-waisted skirt in a photograph shared to Instagram. Following the birth of her two children - August, four, in 2021, and Ernest, two, in 2023 - the art gallery director is seemingly redefining her style to highlight her increasingly toned figure. While Eugenie tends to keep information on her fitness regime private, she has previously shared details regarding how she likes to stay healthy. Ahead of her royal wedding to Jack Brooksbank in 2018, Eugenie embarked on a dedicated fitness regime that saw her get up every day at 6.45AM so she could start exercising by 7AM. 'I go to the park from seven to eight. I do circuits, which I love because they're quick: burpees, squat jumps, lunges, the whole lot,' she told Harper's Bazaar. 'It's much better, as I can't run for a long time. Or I go with my best friend to this amazing, women-only gym called Grace Belgravia. Grace Belgravia in London's Knightsbridge offers everything from GP services to dinner and a massage under one roof, exclusively for women. The very swanky club houses Britain's top celebrity facialist, leading nutritionists, personal trainers - and even gynaecologists - within its 11,500 square feet of serene surroundings. In addition to working out, Eugenie reportedly once hired the help of a nutritionist for diet advice. According to the Daily Mail's Consultant Showbusiness Editor, Katie Hind, Eugenie previously sought the expertise of nutritionist Gabriella Peacock. Gabriella, a former model who has worked as a nutritional therapist for over a decade, is often considered to be high society's nutritionist, and Prince Harry also reportedly hired her ahead of his nuptials. The nutritionist, based in the Cotswolds, offers a range of powders with names such as Slim Me, Clean Me, and Protein Me. Elsewhere, in 2023, Eugenie opened up about the pressure to get her figure back after pregnancy in conversation with Jessie and Lennie Ware on the Table Manners podcast. 'On the post-baby body thing - it sends me mad, but I find it really hard to shake baby weight,' she said. She added, 'I guess society dictates that you have to shake your baby weight and all that stuff.' The royal explained that she had given up dairy and gluten in support of her husband Jack Brooksbank who was advised to cut them from his diet by a gut specialist because he was suffering from migraines.
