Oscar winners enjoy breaks in France, while royal jets off to Cape Town
Actress Penelope Cruz and Oscar-wining boyfriend Javier Bardem took a welcome break from their busy filming schedules to enjoy a restful Easter Sunday getaway in Nice, France this weekend.
The Spanish couple, who have been sighted together for about a year now, flew into the city and practically headed straight for a romantic promenade through the coastal Mediterranean city.
The scenic surrounds provided a perfect backdrop as the happy twosome cuddled and canoodled on the balcony of their luxury hotel as photographers snapped away. Cruz and Bardem were clearly in romantic bliss as they enjoyed their vacation.
On the following the Monday, the pair jetted into Madrid, Spain, where they did their best to navigate the gauntlet of the paparazzi's flashbulbs at the airport.
Meanwhile in the north of France another Oscar winner, actress Charlize Theron, was making the most of Paris while she was shooting an advert for Dior. Theron and boyfriend Stuart Townsend took in a visit to the Gallery of the Evolution and the Garden of Plants.
They then went on to St Suplice Church, before returning to the Ritz Hotel, where they are staying for the duration of their time in the French capital. Both donning sleek dark shades and looking tres chic, Theron and Townsend leisurely strolled down the Parisian streets as fans looked on.
It seems it was holiday time all around for Oscar winners, as veteran actress Jodie Foster was pictured enjoying the waves with her sons Charles and Kit on the tropical island of Hawaii.
The Silence of the Lambs star was seen splashing about and enjoying the surf with her boys just outside of their Maui resort, as they made the most of their much-anticipated Spring Break. Foster shunned a bikini in favour of a long-sleeved shirt and baggy knee-length board shorts.
The 45-year-old actress flew into Hawaii from Australia, where she attended the film premiere of her new family movie Nim's Island, co-starring Abigail Breslin and Scottish actor Gerard Butler.
Foster said she chose to do the film partly for her children and confessed it was "kind of like a summer vacation".
On a slightly more royal note, Prince Harry has been enjoying the South African sun in Cape Town with girlfriend Chelsy Davy. After his secret tour of duty in Afghanistan was leaked by the foreign press, the prince decided to wind down with Davy and her parents at their Cape Town home.
Pictures showed the pair enjoying the afternoon air on a balcony as the sun set. The couple had just enjoyed a romantic break in Botswana, a trip which sources say has "made them realise how much they want to be together".
