That’s the way to do it! Helena Bonham Carter shows Elle Macpherson how to do the school run on a trike.

When Elle Macpherson pedalled her young son to school this week perched on the handlebars of her bike, safety campaigners were horrified.

Perhaps she should have taken some lessons from Helena Bonham Carter.

The actress, 42, and her son Billy Ray, four, are the proud new owners of a midnight blue £750 Trikidoo trike for their daily trips to nursery in Primrose Hill, north London.
It has a double seat over the back wheels with straps to keep the passenger safely in place.

Take note Miss Macpherson.
The supermodel provided no such precautions for five-year-old Aurelius Cy as they wheeled through Notting Hill.

Billy Ray is Miss Bonham Carter’s oldest son by film director Tim Burton.
They also have a nine-month-old daughter, Nell.
No doubt she will fit snugly in the cradle fitted behind the handlebars of the family’s new trike.

Welcome back to the new and improved Helena Fan! A huge thankyou to the very talented Laura of Raspberry Crush Designs for making this beautiful layout - I can’t stop looking at it!

Firstly, our condolences and thoughts go out to Helena and her family after the news of the shocking car crash. Our thoughts are with her and her family at this time.

In slightly lighter news, the first few production stills from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince have been released! Despite the release date being pushed back to 2009, the buzz is already starting, and I’ve managed to find a few snaps of Helena as the evil Bellatrix Lestrange - check those out in the gallery.

I’m also working hard on a new media section, so if you have anything Helena-related to donate, please email me!

Latest: Helena Bonham Carter has halted filming on the new Terminator movie to fly back to Britain after four members of her family were killed in a horrific car crash in South Africa.

Bonham Carter’s relatives were on a safari holiday in the country when a minibus they were travelling in on Wednesday spun out of control and flipped over after a tyre burst.

The actress’ cousin Fiona Bonham Carter, 51, escaped with a broken shoulder. But Fiona’s son Marcus Egerton-Warburton, 14, her mother Brenda, 74, and stepfather Francis Kirkwood, 75, all died.

Fiona’s sister-in-law Kay Boardman, 54, also perished in the crash, in a remote area six hours’ drive from Johannesburg.

Bonham Carter has now been granted indefinite leave from the set of Terminator Salvation in Albuquerque, New Mexico to fly back to the U.K. to comfort her distraught family.

A source tells British newspaper the Sunday Express, “Everyone here was in a state of shock when the news came through. I saw an assistant of Helena’s who told me she is absolutely stricken with grief. She can’t believe what happened.”
