Princess Alexandra Wears Grace Kelly's 1962 Givenchy Gown Days After Engagement Announcement

Princess Alexandra of Hanover recently wore a canary-yellow archival Givenchy gown previously owned by her grandmother, Grace Kelly. The dress, which Kelly wore to the 1962 wedding of King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofía of Spain, was featured in an Instagram post by Alexandra shortly after she announced her engagement to Ben-Sylvester Strautmann. The 27-year-old princess is the daughter of Princess Caroline of Monaco and Prince Ernst August of Hanover, and she is 13th in line to the Monégasque throne. This is not her first time wearing items from her grandmother's wardrobe, as she previously wore a vintage chocolate-brown suit for Monaco's National Day in 2024. The engagement ring, a custom 4.8-carat yellow diamond piece designed by Antinori di Sanpietro, was also highlighted in recent coverage.

Court blocks retroactive pit-lane tweaks, Gasly’s Monaco result remains downgraded

Court blocks retroactive pit-lane tweaks, Gasly’s Monaco result remains downgraded

An FIA court of appeal ruled that a retrospective change to the pit-lane distance parameter is not permissible, meaning the official measurement used to assess pit-lane speed must remain fixed and apply equally to all drivers. Although Alpine argued Gasly did not exceed the 60km/h limit under a shorter line—which had led to the initial penalty being overturned—the court concluded that the benchmark cannot be displaced for a single competitor after the race. The ruling preserves the established measurement and did not address penalties for Hamilton, Russell or Piastri; Alpine have sent the third-place trophy to Red Bull and are considering CAS as a further option.

Balogun's Everton Deal Falls Through After Last-Minute Medical and Handling Concerns

Monaco sporting director Thiago Scuro revealed that Balogun's proposed move to Everton collapsed on deadline day after a reported medical issue, which Everton later said was not a real issue; Balogun withdrew, citing discomfort with how the situation was handled despite paperwork being completed. Everton had been prepared to pay around £40m, but Monaco missed out. The club suggested other markets remain possible. Balogun's absence leaves Everton thin at striker after selling Beto, with Thierno Barry as the only natural No.9, and Moyes may have to wait until January for reinforcements.

Balogun's Everton transfer collapses as USMNT striker stays with Monaco

Everton’s deadline-day bid for Folarin Balogun collapsed after the USMNT striker decided not to proceed, even though a new deal had been renegotiated and a dealsheet submitted. Reported package was around €45 million plus €5 million in add-ons (about £38–£40 million). Balogun, who starred for Monaco this season, remains with Monaco for now, leaving Everton short of attacking options as they navigate squad needs ahead of January.
