This weekend marked a momentous occasion in the world of fashion and luxury as Umar Kamani, the founder of PrettyLittleThing, exchanged vows with model Nada Kamani in a spectacular celebration worth £20 million.

The couple got engaged in August 2021.

The extravagant festivities, spanning four days, unfolded in the captivating backdrop of the South of France, culminating in two enchanting ceremonies that solidified their love and union.

Celebrations took place at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc in France and included performances from Mariah Carey, Andrea Bocelli, and Ronan Keating, with guests like supermodel Naomi Campbell, former footballer Rio Ferdinand and his wife Kate, Lucy Mecklenburgh and Ryan Thomas, Adam Thomas, Caroline Daly, Anthony Joshua, comedian Russell Peters, well-known fashion designer Manish Malhotra, and more, in attendance.

Friday's ceremony took place at the Grand Allée in the lavish hotel. The bride wore a Christian Dior gown created by the creative director, Maria Grazia Chiuri, for her special day; the stunning dress took 540 hours to craft by hand.

Umar looked dapper as he waited under a seaside gazebo in a classic Tom Ford tuxedo.

Following their celebrations on Friday, Umar and Nada celebrated again on Saturday with a traditional Indian ceremony. During this ceremony, the bride and groom opted for matching ivory outfits designed by Manish Malhotra.

A white party to welcome guests was held on Thursday, with a relaxed barbeque on Sunday finishing off the four-day extravaganza.

Umar Kamani, the visionary behind the globally renowned fashion brand PrettyLittleThing, is no stranger to making headlines with his innovative approach to style and entrepreneurship. However, this weekend's events shifted the spotlight onto his personal life, as he embarked on a journey of eternal love with his bride, Nada.

The fairy tale romance between Umar and Nada began with a proposal in August 2021, setting the stage for what would become a grand celebration of love and commitment.

In an exclusive interview with Vogue Arabia, the newlyweds revealed that their first meeting at the altar on Friday was among the most special moments of the weekend.

“It’s something every little girl dreams about, but to do it in such style, in such beautiful surroundings – and of course to the man of my dreams! – was really a fairytale,” Nada said.

Umar added, “What can I say? I was speechless when I saw Nada in that dress. It was the most emotional moment.”

Comment: It’s time for a clear plan on immigration

The immigration white paper has been delayed to after the May local elections. The delay is sensible, as US president Donald Trump’s tariff games make economic conditions less predictable than ever, but necessary too. UK government ministers know how they want to talk about immigration – that control matters – but are torn about what policies that leads to.

There are real dilemmas of control. Downing Street and the Home Office want overall numbers to come down, but chafe at the Treasury constraint of making the fiscal numbers still add up. Health secretary Wes Streeting wants to invest more in NHS training, but not to turn away doctors and nurses who could reduce waiting lists in the meantime. With university finances more fragile than ever, education secretary Bridget Phillipson does not want to push half a dozen local universities over the brink to deliver a statistic on immigration.

Johnny Depp's transformation in Day Drinker leaves fans stunned with a fresh, mysterious look

Johnny Depp's dramatic new look in ‘Day Drinker’ sends internet into a frenzy

Johnny Depp is stepping back into Hollywood’s mainstream with a powerful new role in Day Drinker, his first major studio film since the defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard. With a fresh look and an intriguing character, Depp is ready to headline a movie that’s already got people talking.

In the first official image from the film, Depp appears nearly unrecognisable. Dressed in a deep navy suit, his long silver hair pulled back and a salt-and-pepper beard framing his face, he cuts a sharp yet mysterious figure. Holding a glass in one hand, he looks worlds away from the roles fans might remember, but that’s exactly what’s catching everyone's attention.

Aimee Lou Wood criticises SNL’s ‘White Potus’ parody for mocking her teeth

Aimee Lou Wood, star of The White Lotus, recently found herself at the centre of controversy after a parody of her character aired on Saturday Night Live (SNL). The skit, a political spoof titled The White Potus, humorously exaggerated aspects of the show, but for Wood, it went too far. Comedian Sarah Sherman impersonated Wood's character, Chelsea, with oversized prosthetic teeth. For Aimee Lou, this portrayal hit a nerve, and she openly criticised it.

Taking to Instagram, the actress expressed her discontent, calling the parody “mean and unfunny.” She argued that while she understood SNL was known for satire, the skit could have been executed with more sophistication and less cheap humour. Wood, who has always been open about her unique appearance, especially her noticeable gap teeth, clarified that she doesn't mind caricatures or playful jabs, but felt this one crossed a line. “I have big gap teeth, not bad teeth,” she wrote, pointing out that the entire joke seemed to target her appearance rather than the content of the skit.

As the drummers pounded out fierce rhythms, Hanumankind launched into Run It Up, his latest hit and the crowd packed with both die-hard fans and curious newcomers, went wild.
