The Beckhams are reportedly staying at the Nihi resort on Indonesia's private island of Pulau Sumba, after narrowly escaping two earthquakes in nearby islands Bali and Lombok that took place earlier this week (inset).

It is reported that bosses of the lavish resort – which has been dubbed ‘the best hotel in the world’ and boasts tropical-themed rooms and infinity pools for £5,000-a-night - offered the £25,000 visit for free in a bid to profit from the family's stay.

RICHARD EDEN: The Duchess of Cornwall has intervened to thwart her Wiltshire next-door neighbour's plans to build a flat for his mother. Her neighbour applied in March to demolish an outbuilding at his property 70 yards away (pictured right.) Camilla instructed Charlie Craven the head of Charles’s Highgrove estate 18 miles away and in a different county to send a headed letter to the council objecting the plans. In the letter he writes 'I believe it will have a negative effect on the flow of water from the river during periods of flooding.’ Wiltshire council has now rejected the proposal.

Coleen Rooney has slammed a passenger who claimed his family were relegated to seats next to the toilets on a flight back from Portugal, so the WAG could be with everyone in her group (left) Mark Cassin (pictured right, in the centre) paid a total of £2735 for return flight from Manchester Airport to Faro in Portugal for a family holiday - including £60 to secure their preferred seats. But the father-of-one was stunned to find he had been moved when a member of cabin crew allegedly told him Coleen Rooney (pictured left) needed to sit with everyone in her party. When they boarded their flight, they were shocked to discover they had been shunned to the back of the plane - right outside the toilets. He now alleges he, along with Lynn, his son Joshua, 15, dad Tom, 75, Lynn's sister Kathryn Pullar, 48, and her partner Richard Townend, 45, were treated differently to Coleen purely because he does not enjoy her celebrity status. But Coleen Rooney has taken to social media to refute these claims, insists she was given the seats on check-in and told Mr Cassin to 'get a life.'

Lord Tebbit, a former Tory chairman, accused party chiefs of inflaming the row and allowing Jeremy Corbyn to escape scrutiny over allegations of anti-Semitism. His intervention came as allies of the former foreign secretary expressed fresh concerns last night about how the matter has been handled so far by party chairman Brandon Lewis. They accused Mr Lewis of discussing the case with Tory MPs, which they said breaches a requirement for complaints to be handled confidentially. The Tory party launched an investigation into Mr Johnson on Thursday after it received a number of complaints about a newspaper article in which he compared Muslim women who wear the burka to letter boxes and bank robbers. There are suggestions he could be sent for diversity training as punishment.

Frank Bruno's hands may have knocked out 38 heavyweights over the course of his legendary boxing career, but they look so very delicate as he cradles his precious first grandchild. Just four weeks old, Amaya Georgina Bruno-Hardy nestles into the former world champion’s protective embrace as his hands gently curl around her. Amaya was born on July 14, weighing 8lb 5oz, to Frank’s younger daughter Rachel and her husband Bobby Hardy, a 34-year-old company director.

Sam Urhie’s life of crime may yet hold the key to the death his younger brother Joel (left), who died in an arson attack (inset) on his home in Deptford, South London, in the early hours of Tuesday. In 2016 the 21-year-old (top right) was jailed for four years and four months for possessing cocaine and heroin with intent to supply. One picture shows him defiantly raising a middle finger to the camera from what appears to be his prison cell (bottom right). A childhood friend has claimed the arson attack was payback for something Sam did. He told the Mail: ‘After he lost his direction and he got in with the gangs, they became his family. He no longer relied on his family. He believed in the gang. Sam did something, somewhere to someone and this [the fire] was payback.’

Since leaving the village of Lyonshall, just outside Hereford, dropping out of university in her final year, and being signed by record label Polydor, Ellie Goulding has come a long way. But it was a black and white announcement in the Births, Marriages and Deaths section of The Times newspaper earlier this week that served to illustrate just what a remarkable journey Ellie Goulding, 31, has travelled. It was headed Mr C.W.F Jopling and Miss E.J. Goulding and read: ‘The engagement is announced between Caspar, son of The Hon Nicholas Jopling of Yorkshire and Mrs Jayne Warde-Aldam of Yorkshire, and Elena, daughter of Mr Arthur Goulding of Herefordshire and Mrs Tracey Sumner of West Midlands.’

Jamie Oliver’s latest cookbook, Jamie Cooks Italy, includes a dish worth 638 calories and 26g of fat per slice. Called ‘carnival lasagne’, the meal, which the chef describes as ‘flamboyant and fun’, includes meatballs, uses spaghetti rather than pasta sheets and is finished off in a pie dish with a lattice of pastry. Despite being based on Italian cuisine, the book also includes a recipe for ham, egg and chips – which contains a shocking 45.9g of fat. The NHS recommends a woman eats no more than 2,000 calories a day.

England cricketer Ben Stokes (left, pictured with his wife Clare arriving at Bristol Crown Court today) has told his affray trial that he had found it difficult to remember what happened when he was involved in a street brawl. The 27-year-old has already claimed that he fought off an 'attack with weapons' after coming to the aid of two gay men being abused in the street in Bristol. The all-rounder said he was acting as peacemaker to protect two men he had just met when he feared for his safety. Stokes lashed out at Ryan Ali (right), 28, and Ryan Hale, 27 - knocking both men unconscious - in an act of self-defence, he told a jury, having confronted them over their 'nasty' homophobic language towards Kai Barry and William O'Connor. Today, prosecutor Nicholas Corsellis said: 'Mr Stokes, you seem to have a really significant memory blackout.' He replied: 'You could say that, yes.’

Just three days ago Britain was basking in 92F (33C) temperatures as the longest heatwave since 1976 continued. But the UK faces showers and winds sweeping across the nation from the west for the next 15 days after the remnants of Tropical Storm Debby halted the heatwave (pictured, top stormy skies above London). Today you could be forgiven for thinking the country has fast-forwarded several months, with the mercury set to peak at 70F (21C) as heavy rain, thunderstorms and winds gusting at up to 40mph strike across Britain (bottom-right, new police recruits pass out in the rain). The remarkable turnaround in conditions that began yesterday has ended a 47-day consecutive run of somewhere in the UK getting to at least 75F (24C), as Britons swap their sun cream and hats for umbrellas and coats (bottom-left, the River Cam in Cambridge).

Jay Darrell (right, pictured bowling), who was batting for Minehead Second XI, was on 98 not out with his team needing five more runs to win against Purnell Cricket Club in Paulton, Bristol, on Saturday. The game ended in controversy when Purnell's bowler threw the ball over the boundary to concede five extras and end the game, leaving the batsman stranded two runs short of his hundred. Yesterday bowler Decland Redwood (left) revealed himself as the bowler in question and broke his silence, saying in a statement (centre): 'I take sole responsibility for the incident and emphasise that no other person was aware of my intentions in the build up to the delivery. 'I acknowledge that I made an ill-judged and impulsive decision on approaching the wicket to bowl a no-ball, which resulted in a boundary and gave an unnatural ending to what was otherwise a competitive game of cricket.'

She's been busy exploring her new home of Washington, after jetting into the US capital this week following husband Wayne's move to DC United.  And Coleen Rooney insisted it was an easy decision to uproot her life in Manchester to move overseas, claiming there was 'no doubt' that she would go with Wayne.  The 32-year-old WAG - who shares four sons with the footballer - did, however, admit that she was 'gutted' to take five-year-old Klay out of school. 

In the clip, filmed from inside the restaurant Tex Bites in Leytonstone, east London, a woman on crutches can be seen smoking as she stands with the boy and another woman. The boy animatedly jumps up and down before the woman holds out her hand and the child grabs the cigarette from her. He then puffs on the cigarette as the woman berates him and tries to take it back from him. The boy then finishes smoking and throws it to the ground being stubbing it out with his shoe.

Travellers who have set up temporary residence in the Surrey stockbroker belt have once again moved on to set up another illegal camp. Dozens of caravans have parked up at Ashtead recreation ground after the travellers were moved on from Thames Ditton - and, prior to that, Cobham. Residents in Thames Ditton had said their lives were blighted by anti-social behaviour and alleged thefts since around 40 caravans arrived over the weekend. But the travellers left Long Ditton Recreation Ground in the village yesterday, before the council had been due to get an eviction order from a magistrates’ court. That followed travellers being forced out of another green space six miles away in Cobham last Friday, after the council obtained an eviction order from court.

David Gaut, 54, was jailed for life after brutally killing 17-month old Chi Ming Shek in South Wales in 1985. He was found dead with serious head and facial injuries on Saturday in his rented council flat in New Tredegar (right) - 11 miles from where he killed Chi in Caerphilly. David Osbourne, 51, (left) was Gaut's next-door neighbour since he moved six weeks ago and was arrested with Darren Evesham, 47, and Ieuan Harley, 23, who are also from New Tredegar area. Last night they were charged with his murder and appeared at Newport Magistrates' Court this morning. Chi's mother Jane Pickthall was shocked by the news Gaut had been murdered and told MailOnline she had no idea he had been killed. Mrs Pickthall found Chi’s battered body under a chest of drawers the day after Gaut murdered him.

Between 30,000 and 50,000 people turned out to protest in Romania, included many expatriates who returned home especially to show their anger at the levels of official corruption. Shocking photographs of today's mass demonstration in Bucharest show an officer gripping an elderly man around his throat, a policeman preventing a man from helping a woman in a wheelchair, and water being blasted from police trucks into people's faces (above).

Locals have been left scratching their heads by a sea creature that washed up on shore in Kien Giang province, southern Vietnam. Du Nam Du, the man who spotted it, put it on a green table to get a closer look with other beachgoers who were equally intrigued by its unusual shape and movements.

An investigation has been launched into a nursery in Astrakhan, Russia after a former nursery assistant revealed pictures showing children with their hands and legs tied with diapers. Newly appointed nursery assistant Natalia Dyachenko acted as a whistleblower to reveal the scandal which has horrified parents. It is claimed, in one case, a boy had tethering around his neck 'so he could easily suffocate', Mrs Dyachenco said. The state prosecutor's office is investigating evidence gathered by Mrs Dyachenco. Left an investigator outside of the nursery. Right pictures showing children with their arms and legs tethered.

Cruz, 19, was interviewed by police just hours after the February 14 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. During almost 12 hours in the Broward Sheriff's interrogation room, Cruz confessed to the mass shooting, and told officers he wanted to die aiming his fingers like a gun at his head and repeatedly asked for his brother Zachary, 18. Footage shows Zachary sitting across from his brother, who is handcuffed and in a hospital gown, begging him to explain why he'd gone on the killing spree before Cruz breaks down.
