But can you work out who he is?

It is actor Daniel Day Lewis who was spotted with his wife Rebecca Miller at the Port of Andratx.

The popular star was seen leaving a van by the port as he hopped into a speedboat with his wife.

It is understood the couple were travelling via speedboat to join a yacht with legendary filmmaker, Steven Speilberg.

The pair famously worked together on the 2012 historical drama movie, Lincoln.

Daniel looked relaxed as he opted to cover up despite the Spanish sunshine.

He wore a long beige coat with matching trousers and kept his eyes hidden behind a pair of dark shades.

His wife Rebecca also appeared to keep things simple with a plain white t-shirt and a wide-brimmed hat.

Daniel has famously kept a low-profile and retired from acting but was encouraged by his son to dip his toe back into the game last year.

His son Roman convinced him to star in his directorial debut.

The father and son duo wrote the screenplay together, with the film described as an “exploration of the relationships between fathers, sons and brothers, and the dynamics of familial bonds”.

Along with Daniel, the movie has an impressive cast which includes Sean BeanSamantha MortonSamuel Bottomley and Safia Oakley-Green.

The triple Oscar-winner’s last film was the 2017 movie, Phantom Thread, based on the fashion world of 1950s London.

Announcing his retirement at the time, Daniel’s representative said in a statement: “Daniel Day-Lewis will no longer be working as an actor.

“He is immensely grateful to all of his collaborators and audiences over the many years.

“This is a private decision and neither he nor his representatives will make any further comment on this subject.”

It also saw the little girl’s 11-year-old sister rushed to hospital and she remains in critical condition.

This comes after it emerged the mother of the family had been on a trip when the tragedy unfolded.

Neighbours told The Sun that the mum-of-three was away on a religious pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, and she is returning home today.

Pictures of the scene show firefighters investigating what looks like a burnt-out tumble dryer.

The fire service is working with the police to establish the cause of the fire.

Emergency services were called to the scene, in the market town of Heckmondwike, at 6.19am on Sunday morning.

West Yorkshire Fire Service said it sent four crews and firefighters pulled a man and two young girls out of the burning building.

Despite the best efforts of paramedics, the dad died at the scene.

Both girls were rushed to hospital, where the youngest sadly died later that day.

The father, a taxi driver, was looking after their three children – two daughters and a son – as his wife was away.

Their eldest was staying with relatives on Saturday night so he was not inside the red-brick semi detached house in the quiet cul de sac when the fire took hold.

Cops said they don’t believe there are suspicious circumstances surrounding the tragedy.

Former neighbours Andy Boys, 30, and Mehvish Iqbal, 29, came to lay floral tributes outside the fire damaged house.

Mehvish said: ”My son used to play outside with her little girl, the one that has passed away. It is just awful.

“To know that the mother is away in Mecca and she is coming back to this, I don’t know how she is going to deal with it mentally.

“The girls are lovely little girls, I pray that her older sister pulls through.”

Andy said: ”They were lovely neighbours, we lived next door.”

A number of floral tributes have been left outside the house.

Another neighbour said: ”I heard sirens on Sunday morning and then looked out to see the smoke and the emergency crews doing CPR on the dad and kids.

“It seemed to go on forever, it was horrendous.”

Another neighbour said: ”The Mum was away in Saudi Arabia for Hajj. I’ve been told she is coming back today. My heart breaks for her.

“I know their eldest son was stopping elsewhere with a relative when the fire started.

“The Dad is a taxi driver and such a nice man. It’s is devastating for everybody and we just hope the other little girl survives.”

Detective Inspector Paul Greatorex said: “We are continuing to work with colleagues at the fire service to investigate this dreadfully sad incident which has resulted in a father and daughter losing their lives.

“Extensive enquiries have been ongoing since yesterday and we have been working to locate and support relatives of the victims both here and outside of the UK at what is clearly an awful time for the family.

“While our enquiries remain ongoing we do not believe there are any suspicious circumstances regarding the cause of the fire and will be preparing a file for the coroner in due course.

“Our support for the family involved clearly also still continues.”

The pair went on a boat trip together and Zirkzee also attended the Jouvert celebrations in Barbados.

Zirkzee, 24, went topless as he took part in the festivities, wearing only cargo shorts and Nike trainers.

He was approached by a woman who started to twerk on the United star.

Zirkzee had a surprise look on his face but began dancing with the individual.

He later posed raising two fingers for a peace sign.

After the whine Zirkzee had a cheeky look on his face and his shorts were soaking wet, with the Dutchman holding an empty water bottle.

Revellers continued dancing around Zirkzee who also took a sip from his bottle, seemingly worn out by the activity.

He also leaned against a wall and puffed out his cheeks.

BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS

Zirkzee has reportedly attracted transfer interest from Inter Milan this summer, which United have been quick to shut down.

However there is speculation the Red Devils could use Zirkzee in a swap deal to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli.
