Finally, I managed to see Michael – the long-awaited music biopic about the one and only King of Pop. And let me tell you, London Mums, it was worth every single minute of the wait.
Anything Michael Jackson excites me. His music was the soundtrack of my childhood, my teenage years, and honestly, still pops up on every cleaning-the-house playlist I make. But this film?
Happy national herb day! There’s no better date than Saturday, 2 May, 2026 – the first Saturday of May, and officially national herb day – to enjoy a book that celebrates the very green, growing things that heal, flavour, and enchant our lives. And what a glorious invitation to the party Adele Nozedar has written. Foraging for Healing Herbs is not a dry botanical directory. It’s a ramble…
On 26 April 2026, a small army of chefs, volunteers, and passionate food lovers gathered at Chelsea Old Town Hall with one goal: to break the Guinness World Record for the longest tiramisù in history. And they succeeded – beyond anyone’s wildest dreams.
As Editor of London Mums Magazine, proud official media partner to this initiative, I was there not just to report but to take part. I had…
I went to see Heartsink – a new play by a former GP, no less – and came out feeling like I’d been poked in the ribs and punched in the gut. In a good way. Mostly.
The setup is simple: four actors, two doctors (one old, one young), one patient, one hospital secretary. The set? Minimalist. Same desk, same chairs, just spinning round to remind you that you’re still in a doctor’s surgery.
You don’t get to sit down with the world’s most celebrated pastry chef every day. Iginio Massari – undisputed master, crowned best pâtissier in the world in 2017, and again last year in Paris – says with ironic modesty: «We can say that’s how it is.» But behind the legend lurks a man who, at four years old, fell into a bowl of cream – and never really got out. A proper Obelix, but…
A week before meeting Italy’s most famous contemporary film director Ferzan Özpetek, I wrote my review of Diamanti and I gave it a rating of ten out of ten stars.
For me, it is the most beautiful film of the past decade. It moved me deeply. On impulse, I wrote to him on Instagram. And he replied with a humility you do not expect from someone of his stature. With gratitude. With…
As a film enthusiast and an Italian mother raising a family in London, I am constantly searching for stories that resonate with the complex tapestry of modern womanhood. Between the school run, the pasta boil, and the bedtime stories, there is little time for the cinema. But every so often, a film comes along that doesn’t just deserve a babysitter and a night off – it demands one.
Few films…
Getting a teenager to put down their phone and pick up a book is harder than convincing them your 2005 playlist is “iconic”. But every so often, a story comes along that does the job for you. The Diary of Catherine Cunningham is one of those books.
And here’s the kicker: you’ll probably read it before they do.
What’s it about?
Meet Leona. She’s a teenager from the busy…
Move over, flying and laser vision – there’s a new superhero in town, and her name is Uma. She doesn’t wear a cape (well, not always), but she does something far more powerful: she listens, she cares, and she solves problems with kindness. Super Uma! – the dazzling new picture book from award-winning author Rashmi Sirdeshpande and debut illustrator Nakul P – is a love letter to every…
