BILLE Piper just celebrated her birthday in style alongside a host of other celebrities, including Fearne Cotton and her new beau.

The actress and former singer turned 43 on Friday night and celebrated the occasion with a joint birthday party thrown for her and her long-time friend, Jeremy Langmead.

The guests of honour gathered together with their pals at Upstairs at Langan’s in London for the do, filled with drinks, laughs and good company.

Billie looked absolutely gorgeous in a daring black minidress.

Floral lace details scattered over the skimpy sheer number covering up her body, though in certain snaps you can see she’s sporting flesh-coloured undergarments and nipple pasties.

Underneath the venue’s warm lighting, embroidered beads sparkled and shone as Billie moved.

She finished off the look by bundling up her auburn tresses into a chic bun and added a matching black choker around her neck.

Meanwhile her friend Jeremy – brand director of luxury men’s fashion retailer Mr Porter – kept things simple yet handsome in a suit and white shirt.

Other famous faces in attendance included Richard Madden, Jenna Coleman, and David Tennant, as well as two of Billie’s sisters – Harley and Elle.

Fearne Cotton, 43, was also spotted enjoying the evening with her new boyfriend, film director Elliot Hegarty.

The couple looked ever so loved up in their matching party outfits, with Fearne donning a navy dress with light blue flowers and Elliot, 53, wearing a navy suit.

They posed for a series of snaps together, all smiles as Elliot’s arm wrapped around Fearne’s waist.

Fearne’s signature blonde hair now features stunning soft brunette highlights, flowing down from her shoulders.

Though blonde money pieces frame her face beautifully.

Fearne and Elliot started dating after Fearne’s marriage from Reef guitarist Jesse Wood ended in December of last year.

They tied the knot over a decade ago in 2014, after three years of dating, and share two children.

Fearne’s other half has since moved on with Made In Chelsea star Gemma Gregory, becoming Instagram official back in April.

Though Fearne quickly found her own happiness post-divorce, being first spotted out and about with Elliot just two months after her life with Jesse came to a close.

SPICE Girl Mel C has cranked up the heat and put her rock hard abs on display during a shoot for her new music video – Sweat.

The toned 51-year-old star gave fans a glimpse at work behind-the-scenes of her latest musical offering.

She told followers alongside the footage: “Little SWEAT shoot BTS clip now live on YouTube.”

Jumping around on an exercise bike, the sports-lover showed off her enviable muscles in a variety of show-stopping outfits and shades.

She looked pumped in a selection of wardrobe changes including a string-tied bra top and cut-out bikini-style cover up with black trousers.

Proving she still lives up to her Sporty Spice persona, the singer looked incredibly toned, while exuding girl power in her ab-flashing workout gear.

Mel B reveals she’s been kicked out of Spice Girls group chat AGAIN

The mum-of-one’s new track Sweat is an electro-house single that samples Diana Ross’s iconic hit Work That Body.

It’s set to feature on Mel’s upcoming ninth studio album due to drop on May 1, 2026.

Speaking of her dance single Sweat, she wrote: “I’m so happy this track is finally all yours. Dance to it. Run to it. Lift to it. SWEAT to it.”

Although the singer missed her fellow bandmate’s wedding in July, Mel C issued a sweet message to her friend Mel B.

The popstar was absent from Mel’s happy day at St Paul’s Cathedral on Saturday, which saw Emma Bunton, 49, the sole other girl group member in attendance.

The Sun revealed earlier in the year how the Spice Girls are planning a massive tour in 2026 to celebrate 30 years since debut single Wannabe was released.

Sporty Spice had her say, revealing certain members needed more “convincing” than others, with Victoria Beckham currently not set to take part.

She is expected to keep out of it just like she did with their sell-out 2019 reunion tour, while Geri Halliwell-Horner may also need some persuading.

The Liverpudlian previously appeared on the No Filter with Kate Langbroek podcast and Mel said: “Next year is a big year for us and we have to acknowledge it in some way.

“So we are talking about what that’s going to look like and for me, Melanie, I know for sure, and Emma [Bunton], we’d be back on stage. But sometimes other people need a little bit more convincing.”

On the prospect of all five members being back on stage together for the first time since 2012, she said: “It would be the best thing ever, ever, ever. And sometimes it feels like a duty to the world.

“When we did the shows in 2019, it brought so much joy to so many people. Not everybody likes the Spice Girls but loads of people do.

“We’re living in this weird world right now. There’s so much negativity and mad s**t going on. Let’s all spice up our lives.”

And talking about Mel B, she added, ironically: “We’ve decided now we’re not going to tell Mel anything because she can’t keep her mouth shut.

BRIDGERTON’S Simone Ashley is in pole position to feature in the sequel to Brad Pitt’s movie F1.

A source said: “A script is already in the works with early plans to go into production next year.”

As well as appearing in Sex Education, Ashley has also lent her acting chops to suspense drama Thriller.

Simone has spoken about coming from a traditional Indian family, who finds her acting career “quite scary and unsettling”.

She told Veylex: “My parents are incredibly protective over me, and sometimes I found it quite stifling.

“It made me want to escape and do things my own way. I’ve always been a bit rebellious in that sense.”

“I am incredibly privileged to be apart of a generation where young women from all over the world have more opportunity than ever before, where we are being less stereotyped and walls and being broken down slowly.”
