EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Loved-up Poppy Delevingne takes new boyfriend Archie Keswick to meet her father in swanky Notting Hill restaurant

Poppy Delevingne’s romance with Archie Keswick, which I revealed two weeks ago, is getting serious. The model, 38, is already introducing the scion of the multi-billion pound Jardine Matheson empire to her parents.

Poppy was spotted with Eton-educated Archie at Dorian restaurant in Notting Hill, west London, where they were joined by her father, property developer Charles Delevingne, 74.

At lunch, Poppy went for a smoke and a canoodle with Archie, an ex-boyfriend of Hollywood star Sienna Miller, described as ‘the most eligible bachelor you’ve never heard of’.

Poppy Delevingne turned heads as she arrived on the red carpet for the premiere of The Count Of Monte Cristo at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday.

The socialite, 38, showed off her legs in a gray tulle dress with a sheer skirt, which showed a glimpse of her satin hot pants underneath.

Her ruffled dress also had a plunging neckline to show off her ample cleavage, and she made sure all eyes were on her with a dazzling diamond necklace.

Cara Delevingne’s sister completed her ethereal look with a pair of gold strappy high heels and yellow jeweled earrings.

Earlier in the day, Poppy looked typically chic in a black strapless mini dress as she left Hotel Martinez.

Cannes is the world’s largest film festival, first conceived in 1939 as an alternative to the then fascist-influenced Venice Film Festival.

It has been held annually since 1946, except in 1948 and 1950, when it was canceled due to lack of funds.

The festival is known for its carefully selected program of films that achieved Oscar success or launched the careers of directors such as Quentin Tarantino.

Cannes’ top prize is the Palme d’Or, or Palme d’Or, whose previous winners include Taxi Driver, Apocalypse Now, Pulp Fiction, The Pianist and Parasite.

Jane Campion became the first female director to win the award in 1993 with The Piano, followed by a gap of almost three decades until Julia Ducournau received the award for Titane in 2021.

Last year, Justine Triet became only the third female director to receive the award with Anatomy of a Fall.

There is also an honorary Palme d’Or, awarded in recognition of notable bodies of work, including Harrison Ford, Jane Fonda and Clint Eastwood.

There are two honorees this year: George Lucas of “Star Wars” and “Indiana Jones,” and Japanese animation legend Studio Ghibli, the first group to receive the award.

Other awards include the Grand Prix, Jury Prize, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Screenplay and Best Short Film.

The Cannes Film Festival officially kicked off on Tuesday evening as celebrities walked the red carpet to the luxurious Grand Theater Lumiere in honor of Hollywood actor Meryl Streep before settling in to watch this year’s opening film, The Second Act.

Almost as prestigious as winning the Palme d’Or, the top prize of the Cannes Film Festival, is being part of the jury that chooses the winner.

Artists from all over the world who have made a name for themselves in their field are chosen to serve on the jury, with one member appointed as jury chairman.

This year’s jury chairman, American director Greta Gerwig, comes to Cannes after the huge success last summer of Barbie.

She is the first female American director to serve as jury president, taking over from the head of the 2023 jury, Triangle of Sadness director and two-time Palme d’Or winner Ruben Ostlund of Sweden.

Lily Gladstone, the breakout star of Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, returns to Cannes after becoming the first Indian woman to be nominated for an Oscar and win a Golden Globe award for her performance.

Turkish photographer, actor and screenwriter Ebru Ceylan, one of the writers of the 2014 Palme d’Or-winning film Winter Sleep, is a familiar face at the festival.

Her first short film, On the Edge, was selected for entry into Cannes in 1998, and she has co-written several main competition films, including About Dry Grasses, Three Monkeys and The Wild Pear Tree.

As one of the few women to have starred in a James Bond film, French actor Eva Green is also on the jury.

She has an eclectic resume with Ridley Scott’s Kingdom of Heaven, small-scale projects like Nocebo and TV series Penny Dreadful.

Spanish director Juan Antonio Bayona, twelve-time winner of the prestigious Spanish Goya Awards, is on the jury.

He rose to international fame in 2007 with his first feature-length horror film The Orphanage, produced by award-winning Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro.

His latest, the survival drama and Netflix hit “Society of the Snow,” earned the director an Oscar nomination for best international feature film at this year’s ceremony.

After making a name for herself with 2018’s Capernaum, which earned her Golden Globe, BAFTA and Oscar nominations, Lebanese director and screenwriter Nadine Labaki, who has long had ties to Cannes, adds jury member to her list of accolades.

Pierfrancesco Favino, one of Italy’s most famous actors with a parallel Hollywood career, is no stranger to Cannes. He appeared in the competition films The Traitor, directed by Marco Bellocchio, and Mario Martone’s Nostalgia and is now on the jury.
