Kristen Davis Wore Rixo To The 'And Just Like That...' Premiere - And You Can Still Buy The Perfect Summer Dress
With season three of And Just Like That... finally upon us, to say we're excited about the (no doubt slightly controversial) outfits which are about to grace us would be an understatement. But while we wait to see what Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, Seema and Lisa will be wearing, we've been blessed by a number of looks from the cast as they hit the press tour for the show. FIND OUT MORE AT ELLE COLLECTIVE Last night, for the season three premiere at Le Lido in Paris, Kristin Davis chose the chicest of full-length florals that wouldn't look out of place at any summer wedding or party you're attending this year. And fortunately for us - while the show's outfits are often archival designer looks we couldn't dream of replicating - her dress is actually from British brand Rixo. Davis paired the Rio ruffled gown in vintage rose black with a Roger Vivier Mini Viv Choc Me shoulder bag and a dramatic retro-leaning high-pitched ponytail fastened with a Princess of Wales-approved bow. The silk crepe de chine dress is made up to a size 20 and available in four prints. Rixo adds: 'We have improved our Rio's fit by adjusting the bust seam and removing excess fabric.' The third series of the Sex And The City follow-up show is 12 episodes long and will be available on Sky and NOW TV. The first episode will air on May 29 in the US and be available at the same time in the UK, so will mostly be watched by us on a Friday. The series looks set to follow Charlotte re-entering the world of work - and regressing back to her young years with her new colleagues. But could we also be in for some love drama for Charlotte? If Davis has her way, then there might be. Recently asked by Stellar Magazine which character from Sex And The City she would like to see return, Davis said Charlotte's former husband Trey MacDougal: 'I feel like there could be many scenarios where [Trey's return] could work. 'I feel like in New York, you do run into people from your past pretty frequently.' Now that's a plot line we'd add to our AJLT wishlist...

Cristiano Ronaldo sends son message after he's watched by Man Utd scout
Cristiano Ronaldo had a simple message for his son after the teenager took to the international stage for Portugal for the first time as he came off the bench in a tournament in Croatia Cristiano Ronaldo has congratuled his son after the young star made his international bow for Portugal. The 14-year-old made his debut from the bench for the nation's under-15 side in the Vlatko Markovic international tournament in Croatia. And already Cristiano Ronaldo Jr was able to flash his talents to a Manchester United scout after featuring against Japan, per reports. The starlet entered the field after 54 minutes and donned the no.7 shirt his father was at home in. Tottenham were also said to be in attendance at the youth tournament. Croatian newspaper Sportske Novosti suggested that Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, Hoffenheim, Red Bull Salzburg, Inter Milan, Juventus and Atalanta all had representatives covering the game too. Ronaldo Jr will be familiar to faces at United having been part of the youth set-up during his father's second spell at the club but currently plays within Al-Nassr's academy. The teenager played alongside Wayne Rooney's son, Kai, while learning his trade at Carrington. Ronaldo Sr has earned 219 caps in his international career and the 40-year-old was pleased to see his son earn his first minutes of a fledgling career. The Portugal legend was proud of his eldest child. Ronaldo Jr is in the fairly unique position of being eligible to play for three different nations. After following his dad as he completed transfers around the world, the young star of course qualfies for Portugal through his dad, but qualifies for Spain after spending much of his youth there when Ronaldo played for Real Madrid. The United States could yet come calling for the teen as Ronaldo Jr was born in California and it is reported he could represent the country as a result. Any desire for an England career can quickly be quashed however as he would have needed to spend five years in the country to qualify. Ronaldo Jr trained two years above his age group upon arriving at the Mahd Academy in 2023, and reportedly could have returned to Real Madrid. Perhaps another academy move could be on the cards however. Ronaldo Sr's future at Al-Nassr appears unclear after talks of a contract extension were "put on hold". The ex-Juventus and United star was tipped to sign a new two-year deal but an underwhelming year from the club appears to have instigated some doubts. Ronaldo has continued to find success in front of goal but it has not been matched with silverware for Al Nassr. Now talk of move to rival club like Al Hilal, who have qualified for the Club World Cup, has emerged. Marca claims Ronaldo is questioning his future and after losing 3-2 to table toppers Al-Ittihad last week, the veteran stormed off the pitch. It is said to not be well received by the club's hierarchy.
