Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank appear to have settled into life in Portugal with a simple habit that has made a lasting impression on locals

Princess Eugenie has been given a glowing verdict by locals in the Portuguese town where she has quietly built a new life with husband Jack Brooksbank.

The royal couple are regularly spotted out and about near their luxury home, but despite their famous status, they appear to have found a way to blend into the community.

And one tiny gesture in particular has reportedly left locals impressed.

A councillor living near the couple told the Daily Mail that Eugenie and Jack are frequently seen around the area, including during walks and trips out in their Range Rover.

“I see Eugenie and Jack quite often. We live very close and I knew she was pregnant as I saw her bump. I would often see them in their Range Rover as well,” he said.

But it is not their luxury lifestyle that has caught the attention of neighbours.

“They are very friendly and always wave to say hello and they both also speak a little bit of Portuguese, which has really impressed everyone in the village,” the councillor said.

“They go for a walk on the main street and go to the restaurant and no one bothers them.”

The local said residents are careful not to invade the family’s privacy, despite knowing exactly who they are.

“It’s mainly locals here and not many foreigners, so no one really knows who she is – but of course the people in Melides know but we don’t bother her. We leave her alone to get on with her life.”

Now Eugenie’s Portuguese connection has taken on an even more special meaning.

The princess and Jack have welcomed their third child – a daughter – after she was born at a hospital in Lisbon on Monday, August 3.

Buckingham Palace confirmed the baby arrived at 6.20pm, weighing 6lb 9oz, with both mother and daughter said to be doing well.

The little girl is also believed to be the first of Eugenie’s children to be born overseas.

Locals were quick to celebrate the news, with the councillor saying: “I heard on the radio their new baby was born in Lisbon, so she is Portuguese by birth, which is wonderful for us here. Everyone is delighted for them.”

The family have a £3.6million oceanside villa at the exclusive Costa Terra resort, where homes are hidden among pine trees and sand dunes.

The development offers a mile-long stretch of beach, multiple restaurants, a wellness spa, an equestrian centre and an 18-hole golf course.

And nearby Melides has plenty of celebrity glamour of its own, with Christian Louboutin’s five-star Vermelho hotel offering rooms for as much as £919 a night during high season.

Jose Santos, president of the local tourist board, said the presence of the royal families was proving a huge boost.

“For us to have Harry and Meghan and Eugenie and her family as guests and residents is such a fantastic advert for the area,” he said.

The locals’ discretion appears to be part of the appeal, with Santos adding: “Costa Terra where they live is very exclusive and the security is very tight.”

Meanwhile, Sarah Ferguson is also rumoured to have returned to Melides following her daughter’s birth.

Staff at O Fadista restaurant said Eugenie and Jack are regular visitors, with one waiter saying: “Eugenie and her husband are regulars and have been here quite a few times with friends.”

Spain has imposed border controls on all air and sea travel from Italy as a row between the two EU countries intensifies.

The measures – which started at midnight (22:00 GMT) and will last for a month – come a week after Italy introduced similar restrictions following an influx of about 78,000 migrants from Morocco into the Spanish exclave of Ceuta.

Spanish officials said the documents of 5%-10% of passengers were being checked before they were allowed to disembark planes. Italy has also said its border controls are random.

The crisis has pitted Spain’s socialist leader Pedro Sanchez against Italy’s conservative leader Giorgia Meloni – who has long called for stricter EU migration rules.

Italy does not share a land border with Spain. Its government said last week that decision to temporarily suspend the ​border-free Schengen arrangement was to prevent any of the migrants who had entered Ceuta from travelling on to Italy.

Madrid dismissed this position, saying it was based on “spurious arguments” that lacked any basis in fact because the migrants who entered Ceuta had no way of entering the Schengen area.

On Friday, Spain demanded Italy reverse its checks by Sunday. Rome said they would stay until at least 15 August – when, it said, Spain “expects a new wave of migration” to hit Ceuta.

Italy has said that Spanish and EU citizens are exempt from additional checks when arriving in Italy, with these extra steps only for non-EU residents.

However, it is not clear how border officials were meant to distinguish between EU and non-EU travellers and El Pais has reported that several Italian airport terminals have seen long queues and waiting times in recent days, with passengers arriving from Spain directed to a specific line for checks.

As for Spanish controls, the authorities insists the immigration checks are random. However, a passenger arriving in Madrid on Saturday told national broadcaster RTVE that all passengers on her flight had had to show their passports.

“They told us we couldn’t get off the plane without showing our documents,” Elisa said.

Another passenger said “we were stopped and asked for identification, which the police seemed to approve of”.

Spain says its checks will stay in place until 7 September “unless a change in the circumstances that led to its adoption warrants modifying that period”.

David Sullivan has defiantly attended West Ham‘s first game of the season at the London Stadium, despite being advised to stay away from home matches after being accused of multiple counts of sexual misconduct.

The club’s co-owner and largest shareholder, 77, resigned as co-chair in June ahead of the airing of a BBC Panorama and Times investigation in which seven women accused Sullivan of predatory behaviour, which he strongly denies.

Daily Mail Sport reported on Friday that Sullivan believes he is being ‘bullied’ into missing West Ham’s Carabao Cup clash against Portsmouth on Saturday by ‘keyboard warriors’, after operators of the London Stadium advised against him attending over fears of potential fan unrest.

West Ham’s fan advisory board warned that his presence would cause ‘offence and upset’, while many inside the club were left staggered upon learning that Sullivan planned to defy the advice and attend.

Sources close to the co-owner told Daily Mail Sport that Sullivan is concerned about the state of the team heading into their first season in the Championship in 14 years and also over the lack of transfer activity in the summer window.

As a result, Sullivan felt he needed to watch the first game of the season, according to sources.

Sullivan was accused in June of preying on a string of women, some in their teens, during his time as a newspaper chief stretching back to the 1980s as seven women came forward to give detailed accounts of predatory behaviour they had experienced, including pressuring them for sex or oral sex by suggesting it would help their careers. Sullivan described the allegations as ‘factually incorrect and entirely false’. 

Sources close to Sullivan also claimed he’s received numerous messages from fans urging him to attend despite his presence at matches last season sparking continued protests from spectators against his ownership, including marches, boycotts, sit-ins, black balloons and thousands of fans brandishing red cards.

The Panorama investigation revealed that Sullivan had been banned from contact with West Ham women’s and youth teams for the past three years.

Prior to Sullivan’s attendance today, London Stadium’s operator asked to be made aware of any planned visits from the co-owner so it could implement its own safety measures.

West Ham are said to have told the operator that they do not consider there to be an ongoing safeguarding risk associated with Sullivan attending the stadium. 

Until recently, it appeared as though Sullivan’s grip on West Ham was loosening when it was announced in June that Vanessa Gold, daughter of former co-owner David, had agreed to sell part of their stake in the club to fellow shareholder Daniel Kretinsky. The move that would have seen the Czech billionaire overtake Sullivan as leading shareholder.

Sullivan, with Karren Brady in 1993, resigned as West Ham’s co-chair in June ahead of the airing of an investigation in which seven women accused Sullivan of predatory behaviour

Last week, however, a new announcement confirmed that Gold had accepted a new offer from a consortium led by former Newcastle co-owner Amanda Staveley for her shares. Staveley agreed to buy a 25.1 per cent stake for £150million, which values the club at around £600million, and would still leave Sullivan as the leading stakeholder.

Staveley, though, has reportedly also made an offer to Sullivan, who is believed to be open to selling his stake in the club but values it at much more.

The Irish Government jet is on its way to Dubai for the extradition of alleged gangland figure Daniel Kinahan.

It comes after several months of preparations following the arrest in April in the United Arab Emirates of the Dublin boxing promoter who is an alleged leader of the Kinahan organised crime group.

Kinahan, aged in his late 40s, was detained on foot of an arrest warrant issued by the Irish courts in relation to alleged serious organised crime offences.

The Irish Government jet took off from Casement Aerodrome in Baldonnel on the outskirts of Dublin on Saturday morning.

It is expected to touch down in Ireland on Sunday evening.

Kinahan’s arrest was carried out in accordance with a bilateral agreement on extradition between Ireland and the UAE.

The High Court in Dublin previously named Kinahan, who has recently been living in the UAE, as a senior figure in an organised crime gang involved in international drug trafficking and firearms offences.

The Kinahan cartel was involved in a feud with the rival Hutch crime gang in Ireland, which began in 2015 and resulted in 18 deaths.

In 2016, an attempt was made on Daniel Kinahan’s life at a boxing weigh-in at the Regency Hotel in Dublin.

In 2022, US authorities issued a reward of up to five million dollars (4.3 million euro/£3.7 million) for Kinahan’s arrest.

Pending his arrival, the Irish Prison Service has purchased a bomb-proof van to transfer him between locations should an attack take place either to kill or attempt to free Kinahan.

The cartel is considered to be one of the most powerful criminal groups in the world and has close links to Iran and Hezbollah.

Kinahan, along with other members of the criminal group, had been living openly in Dubai, following a gangland feud that claimed 18 lives on the streets of Dublin and Spain’s Costa del Sol.

His transfer to Irish custody comes after years of international diplomacy and legal battles to have Kinahan arrested.

It comes as Kinahan recently spoke from Dubai’s Al Awir Central Jail with podcaster James English. Excerpts of the phone interview were released on social media.

In the interview, he admitted he has ‘not been an angel’ but insists, without irony, that he has been used as a ‘scapegoat’ by both the media and the Garda (the Irish police).

Of his imminent extradition to Ireland on charges of directing organised crime, he said: ‘I’m happy now today to get on an Emirates flight or whatever flight they want, in baggage class, economy class, any class they want.’

Then he added conspiratorially: ‘So if I happen to fall and bang my head when I have handcuffs on me, I didn’t fall. If I end up hanging myself, killing myself, poisoning myself, it didn’t happen. I’m not suicidal.’

Ronald Araujo is set to join Liverpool on a season-long loan from Barcelona, where one of his lows came in a Champions League quarter-final loss against Luis Enrique’s Paris Saint-Germain

Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique once described Ronald Araujo as Barcelona’s biggest weakness in a brutal piece of analysis. A clip of Enrique’s criticism has resurfaced after Liverpool agreed a deal to sign Araujo, 27, on a season-long loan.

The deal includes an option to buy for €55million (£47m), with the Reds covering his wages in full. Liverpool supporters are keen to get the lowdown on their newest signing, who is set to have a medical on Sunday before linking up with his team-mates.

But they won’t be enamoured by listening to what Enrique told his players about Araujo in 2024, especially since PSG have knocked Liverpool out of Europe in each of the last two seasons. The PSG manager was preparing his side to face Barcelona in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final, as they trailed 3-2 on aggregate after losing the home leg.

Firstly, during a staff meeting which was later shown in a documentary about Enrique, he said: “Let Araujo come with the ball. When he comes with the ball, when he releases it, we pressure him.”

When it came time to address his squad, the Spaniard explained: “Let this gentleman (a magnet on a board) be Araujo, who is a high-level player, no doubt about it. But he is the player with the most problems. Every time the ball gets to Araujo – whether it’s a support, a pass and so on – when the ball comes in motion, cover the passing line and go.”

Enrique’s game plan looked to be out of the window when Raphinha gave Barcelona the lead on 12 minutes, extending their advantage. But then came the turning point, as Araujo played a misplaced pass after being pressed by Bradley Barcola exactly in the way Enrique had instructed him to.

Scampering back as Barcola raced away, Araujo clumsily fouled the French winger and got himself sent off, paving the way for PSG’s comeback. Enrique’s team ran out 4-1 winners on the night and progressed to the last four.

Will Ronald Araujo prove his doubters wrong? Give us your prediction in the comments section.

The incident has haunted Araujo’s career at Barcelona ever since, and he was also culpable for a crucial goal in their Champions League semi-final defeat to Inter Milan in 2025 when Hansi Flick’s men were seconds away from going through. The Champions League has been a particular source of frustration for Araujo, who was also sent off against Chelsea last season.

That red card prompted him to take a mental health break which Barcelona granted him, telling Mundo Deportivo: “I’d been dealing with anxiety for a year and a half that turned into depression, and I was playing like that. That doesn’t help, because on the field you don’t really feel like yourself.”

Barcelona faced PSG in the Champions League again last season, and when Enrique’s comments were put to Flick, he replied: “What happened in the past is no longer valid; now is different. I have full confidence in all my players. He’s incredible and has proven it in recent games. I’m very happy with him.”

Araujo will hope that his move to Anfield serves as a fresh start. Blessed with pace, strong and boasting a towering 6ft 3in frame which makes him a threat in both boxes, Andoni Iraola likes what he sees from the Uruguay international, who didn’t feature at the World Cup due to a calf injury.

His ability to play at right-back should also come in handy for Liverpool, who need cover in the position due to Conor Bradley’s injury. Last month, centre-back Joe Gomez suffered an injury, making it a bigger priority to recruit a defender.

The nine-year-old died at Ninewells Hospital in Dundee after she was found seriously injured at Elliot Industrial Estate in Arbroath in the early hours of Monday August 3.

Arbroath FC will hold a minute’s silence today in memory of tragic schoolgirl Minnie Merriman after her alleged murder in the town.

The nine-year-old died at Ninewells Hospital in Dundee after she was found seriously injured at Elliot Industrial Estate in Arbroath in the early hours of Monday August 3.

The youngster and her family, from West Yorkshire, were camping in the area at the time. Three other members of Minnie’s family were also taken to hospital.

Christopher Rice, Minnie’s father, appeared at Forfar Sheriff Court last week, where he faced a single charge of murder.

The Red Lichties announced that it would hold the tribute in her memory before their championship match against Inverness at Gayfield.

A statement read: “We ask all fans to join us in observing a minute’s silence before kick off in memory of nine-year-old Minnie Merriman, following her recent passing and those affected by the recent events in Arbroath.”

The club paid tribute after it emerged a health board is investigating a potential data breach after the youngster’s heath records were allegedly accessed by a member of staff.

NHS Tayside confirmed an investigation has been launched after Minnie’s health records were allegedly accessed without permission or a clinical need.

Laurie Merriman, Minnie’s mum, also paid tribute to her “first true love” in a heart-breaking message this week following her daughter’s death.

She wrote: “You have always and will continue being my strength, we are connected eternally, I have never felt a love so deep and a connection so strong.

“My first true love, my twin, I am connected to you in life and in death, and my girl that cannot be broken, I will fight to stay strong for your little brothers.

“I will hold my head high, knowing you will always be holding my hand for the rest of my life. I will see you again, that I know for sure. I love you eternally.”

In another tribute, headteacher of Hendal Primary School in Wakefield, Kelly Ashton, described her as a “kind and thoughtful girl”.

Hundreds of tourists have fallen ill after visiting UK beaches, new figures have revealed. 

Marine conservation charity Surfers Against Sewage (SAS) received more than 700 reports of sickness across 406 locations this year alone, including from ‘Blue Flag’ beaches which must pass strict tests for cleanliness. 

While more than 15,000 days – equivalent to 41 years – have been taken off work due to sickness contracted from the UK’s waters since 2019. 

The polluted water, the charity said, has caused swimmers to suffer from illnesses such as gastroenteritis and ear infections, which has led to hospitalisations and time spent off work. 

Some 765 people contacted SAS about their illness in 2026, with nearly half – 322 – reporting sickness since the UK’s temperatures rose on May 1. 

This prompted Britons to flock to the nation’s coast and beaches to cool off from extreme heat. 

The findings come as the UK faces its fifth heatwave this year, with highs of 36C (97F) expected next week – and a prediction that the annual record for days exceeding 30C (86F) will be broken.

Bournemouth was the most reported location in the study, with 16 reports of illness, as thousands have visited the coastline during this year’s unprecedented UK summer.

Three of the reports came from Durley Chine beach, which won the Blue Flag status in 2026.

While 13 people reported sickness from Croyde Bay in Croyde, north Devon, and from the popular Polzeath in Cornwall. 

Polzeath – nicknamed the UK’s ‘poshest’ seaside town – has been a favourite of the royals, with Prince William and Prince Harry favouring it for a summer retreat in 2012. 

The small resort town has an average house price of £1.25million, while it is understood 43 per cent of properties are valued at more than £1million. 

Former prime minister David Cameron, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and TV chef Gordon Ramsay have also owned property in the Cornish town. 

In the charity’s rankings, Rest Bay in Porthcawl in Bridgend, Wales, followed Polzeath with 12 people reporting they were unwell to SAS. 

Some ten people reported illness from Exmouth in Devon, as nine said they became unwell after visiting a beach in Portreath, a north Cornwall coastal town.

While eight people suffered after visiting Saunton Sands in north Devon, Swanage Central in Dorset and Ogmore in Barry, Wales. 

The charity received seven reports from people who had visited Woolacombe Village, north Devon.

SAS said sewage dumping by water companies is ‘making us sick’, which it said has been going on for ‘decades’, adding the new data reveals the scale of the illness. 

In 2024, water companies in England recorded 2,487 pollution incidents, while 4.7million hours was spent dumping sewage into UK waters.  

This comes as the charity’s findings revealed 15,362 days were taken off work due to sickness ‘contracted’ from the UK’s waters since 2019. 

The most reported location – of 1,014 days – was St Mary’s Bay in Kent.

Notably, there is no indication what could be behind sickness at the Blue Flag locations. 

The ‘Blue Flag’ is awarded to beaches with high water quality, minimal waste, good biodiversity and are both safe and accessible. 

SAS has received 8,313 reports of sickness from Britain’s beaches since 2019. 

Jo Morley, head of campaigns at SAS, said: ‘Thousands of water users are reporting this to us, and this is likely just the tip of the iceberg. 

‘From gastroenteritis and ear infections, to weeks off work and hospitalisations. This is a public health crisis. 

‘We know that sewage is pouring into our waters, even during this summer’s exceptionally dry weather, and it’s totally unacceptable that people are getting ill in any case, especially after using bathing waters rated as “excellent”.’

‘There is no official Government data, and no legal protections for people using the water,’ Ms Morley added.

‘This is symptomatic of a totally broken system that has put profits first for too long, allowing polluters to cash in whilst dumping sewage without punishment, and this has to change.’

SAS urged Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s Government to end the privatised water industry, adding: ‘The PM must take back control of failing water companies and remove the profit motive and restructure them, starting with Thames Water.’

Vitor Matos insists Zan Vipotnik’s future at Swansea City has not been affected by Ross Stewart’s arrival – and says he’s happy to accommodate three senior strikers for the new season.

Stewart completed a free transfer to the Swans on Thursday, becoming Swansea’s sixth new signing of the window.

He has signed a three-year deal at the club, and his capture will be seen as a huge statement of intent given the player’s Championship pedigree.

Stewart scored 11 goals in 33 appearances in all competitions for Southampton last season, and his arrival will inevitably spark further questions over Vipotnik’s future at the club, with clubs in England and Europe taking an interest.

As things stand, however, there is nothing on the table from anyone, and Matos clearly hasn’t ruled out the possibility of keeping all three strikers on board.

“I think one thing we tried is to increase the competition or the healthy competition inside of the squad,” he said.

“I think that’s what we’ve done. There’s a lot of challenges, a lot of games to come, a lot of competitions as well to participate in and I think having a squad with depth in all positions was quite important for us.

“It’s something that we felt last season in some moments was a little bit tricky.

“I still remember when I was sitting here in December everyone asked why we only had Zan Vipotnik as a striker and I needed I think maybe three press conferences to try to justify it.

“I think it’s important to have that depth, of course, and then with that trying to squeeze the best out of the squad and that’s what we will do as well.”
