Madeleine: Our daughter's disappearance and the continuing search for her

Gerry was quite keen on the Portugal idea, attracted by the sporting facilities, children’s clubs and activities on offer." The suspect has also been linked to a 1993 Jaguar XJR6 with a German number plate seen in Praia da Luz and surrounding areas in 2006 and 2007.

It was difficult for the restaurant to accommodate the nine adults alone, so “after having a word with the receptionist at the pool and tapas area”, the group were pencilled in for a table for the rest of their week.

Nancy joined Entertainment Daily in 2019 after working at OK! magazine for 18 years. Over the course of her career she has brushed shoulders with Princes William and Harry, interviewed Michael Bublé and enjoyed a G&T with Idris Elba. A true lover of celebrities, she has also freelanced at Heat, Closer and Hello. They favoured the same kind of holidays we did – we’ve never been interested in swanky hotels, preferring a reputable resort with good sports facilities and, since the arrival of the children, plenty for them to do, too. Gerry and I took the kids everywhere – in fact, I’d only ever been apart from them for one night – so they were used to travelling.” I couldn’t recall seeing it the night before and had no idea how it might have got there, but it looked like a tea stain.

Some people will know the man we're describing today, you may be aware of some of the things he's done. From people who had taken holidays in the Algarve, I gathered that it was a quite upmarket, family-friendly destination. Kate also detailed during the same book why their holiday apartment may have also been a “prime target” for a burglar. If something had happened to make her cry, it was pretty unlikely that she wouldn’t tell us about it, assuming she remembered what it was. Police also want to speak to the individual who called the suspect before Madeleine’s disappearance and have released details on both their phone numbers.She added: “Later, we were told by the British police that the ground-floor location, access to roads front and side, secluded entrance and partial tree cover made our apartment a prime target for burglars and criminals. If only foresight came as easily to us as hindsight. Within hours, the explanation for this would seem hugely important and so haunted have I been ever since by Madeleine’s words that morning.” But it was only after Madeleine vanished that Kate discovered what the person who took the booking wrote in the open reservation book at the restaurant’s entrance. And it was then that she realised it would have been clear to anyone working at the restaurant, or any curious member of the public, that the children would be unsupervised in their rooms. ‘We now bitterly regret it’ The series, presented by Julie Etchingham, will probe why it has taken more than a decade to link the new prime suspect to the case. Writing in Madeleine: Our Daughter’s Disappearance and the Continuing Search For Her, Kate shared that they requested the same table in the Ocean Club restaurant every night of their holiday. This is because it afforded Kate and Gerry – and their holidaying friends – the best view of the apartments where they left their sleeping children.
