TALK OF THE TOWN: Britain’s ‘coolest royal’ Cassius Taylor crowned Britain’s most eligible bachelor
He may only be 50th in line to the throne, but Britain’s ‘coolest royal’ Cassius Taylor has taken the top spot on the list of the country’s most eligible bachelors.
The part-time DJ, who is the granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth’s first cousin the Duke of Kent, was born on Boxing Day and was named after Cassius Clay (later to become Muhammad Ali).
He recently performed at London’s top nightclub Fabric, but just a few months ago he attended a very different social event: the Royal Family’s annual Christmas dinner at Buckingham Palace.
In 2001, at the age of four, she was escorted by her great-great-aunt, the Queen Mother, to the balcony of Buckingham Palace to practice the royal wave to Join the Colours.
He is now the younger son of Lady Helen Taylor and her husband Timothy Taylor, an art dealer with galleries in Mayfair and New York. Hello! He was named Britain’s most flamboyant bachelor by.
In an interview at his family’s mews home in London, Cassius says his name was ‘the greatest gift to me from my parents’ and that it served as ‘the greatest icebreaker’.
Cassius is not a working royal but has forged a career as a music events ‘curator’. Their goal is simple: ‘Meet great people, throw great parties, stay healthy,’ says Hello!.
His passion for music began at the age of 12 when Lady Helen took him to see the Oasis at Wembley, where he recalled his mother embarrassing him.
He says: ‘I still remember sitting on the couches and getting weird because my mum wouldn’t stop dancing.’
The Taylors go to Glastonbury together, and Cassius has been making the pilgrimage for the past seven years.
It’s been his dream to perform at Worthy Farm, but he’s already achieved a goal by performing at Fabric last year for Rave To Save, a fundraiser supporting male suicide charity James’ Place.
He says: ‘I’ve had my struggles. And if I can help give back, then I will.’
He failed to agree to be the wedding DJ for royal cousins Lady Marina Windsor and Lady Amelia Windsor, who are both getting married next year.
Lila is doing Coachella’s shorts thing
Lila Moss and her tiny shorts made it to Coachella, although she recently told Vogue that her dream day involved nothing more than shopping, an early night, and lots of matcha.
Kate Moss’ recently single, thin daughter got rid of her ‘clean girl’ image and attended the California festival, where Madonna performed a duet with Sabrina Carpenter, with Stella Jones, the daughter of The Clash frontman Mick Jones.
Stella is dating Elliot Donald, grandson of Sir Paul McCartney, and the nepo tribe has emerged en masse to live up to their blue-blooded rock’n’roll ancestors. Or try…

King Charles whips out all kinds of whips, including bee hotels, at the Highgrove gift shop. Now word has reached me that he is even selling wallpaper with pictures of his own garden in Highgrove for £266 a roll. Socialite and former Vogue journalist Plum Sykes was less than impressed, saying: ‘There would have been a media storm if Meghan had done this but somehow, because she’s the King, it was all very chic.’
Supermodel Cara Delevingne is having a hard time calming down. In the two years since his Los Angeles home was destroyed in fires that engulfed the city, he has bought and sold two houses, both worth around £8 million, the second of which was previously owned by actress Jennifer Lawrence.
Now Cara has bought another £8 million flat in Beverly Hills from interior designer Austin Harrelson. The question is: How long will it stay?

Is Victoria Beckham on the warpath? I ask this because when Kim Turnbull, girlfriend of Lady B’s son Romeo, took to TikTok to detail her six-step skincare routine, there wasn’t a VB Beauty product in sight. Instead, Kim told her followers that her favorites came from Allies Of Skin.
