Liam Broady and Jack Draper both reached junior finals at Wimbledon in recent years but no British boy has won the title since Stanley Matthews, son of the famous league footballer, in 1962 league

Gracie is no stranger to finding herself somewhere new in the world, as she accompanied me to many film sets, some for months at a time, requiring completely new schools and sets of friends league

It’s only when you get to the Maldives that you understand its magnificence – and only when you leave that you understand the impact it has had on your soul league

league
league
I didn’t know the earth could look like this league
I am so happy league
It’s the happiest I could be league
league
league
It’s beyond beautiful league
”This deserved a toast; her first legal cocktail didn’t disappoint, thanks to our great mixologist, Prem (we still miss you), who shook up a spectacular and delicate concoction of complex botanicals mixed with a rarely seen rum league
Then there was the food league
I won’t forget those Vietnamese spring rolls, a symphony of flavours, enticing aromas and vibrant colours league
And the natural herbs: fresh ginger, honey, turmeric, and mint were waiting next to a steaming teapot when we arrived back in our room, after experiencing a breakfast that literally floats league
The attention to detail was truly impressive league

I could write endlessly about the sea as perfect as a dream, a coral reef extending majestically just a few metres from shore, where we swam for our first snorkelling experience league
So now we’re back, what am I feeling?Huge gratitude, but also grief and loss, knowing that the person I have loved the most for 18 years will no longer be filling this house with my favourite sounds and feelings and energy league
