EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: When Mel Coleman died last year only weeks after being diagnosed with colon cancer, his wife, Annabel Croft, was comforted by their only son, Charlie, 27.

When Mel Coleman – a vigorous 60-year-old, seemingly in impeccable health – died last year only weeks after being diagnosed with colon cancer, his wife, the tennis star-turned-television presenter Annabel Croft, was comforted by their only son, Charlie, 27. The Princess of Wales and her sister, Pippa Matthews, have attended the Boodles Boxing Ball where friends including Hugh van Cutsem have fought in charity fundraising bouts. Londoner Suki, 32, wore a peach-coloured ruffled gown by Chloe for the show, which was watched by pals including fellow model Georgia May Jagger, actress Eiza Gonzalez, TV presenter Poppy Jamie, socialite Jack Guinness and singer Lilith Ai.
