Gina Schumacher, daughter of Formula 1 world champion Michael Shumacher, has married fiancé Iain Bethke, in an informal ceremony at the family´s holiday property in the mountains near Port d´Andratx. 27-year-old Gina and 28-yearold Iain have been dating for seven years and got engaged last summer. The couple bonded over their shared love of horses, with Iain being a former showjumper and Gina competing successfully in major western riding competitions. They now spend much of their time in Texas, at the family ranch, and Iain has swapped his English jumping saddle for a western saddle in order to adapt to his new life. According to German newspaper, BILD, the ceremony took place at 16:00 and was celebrated with family and friends. Gina looked stunning in an ivory-hued wedding dress decorated with floral lace, from designer Enzoani´s `Blue´ collection, whilst Iain looked handsome in a dark pinstripe suit, matched with a grey waistcoat and tie.

Catering was provided by Jardines Events, headed by top chef Macarena de Castro, who runs three highly acclaimed restaurants in Mallorca as well as one in Düsseldorf, and has provided personalised menus for the Spanish royal family as well as tennis star Rafael Nadal at his wedding to fellow Mallorquína, Maria Francisca Perello.

The Schumachers have owned the Andratx property since 2018. It is equipped with its own private landing strip, to facilitate access for Gina´s famous father Michael, who spent six months in a coma after suffering a serious brain injury in a skiing accident in 2014, and who remains affected both physically and mentally by the brain trauma inflicted.

Capturing Team Spirit The Real Mallorca football team posed for their annual squad photograph on Monday, in a photo shoot taken at the emblematic Castell de Bellver, on the outskirts of Palma. The footballers, who are more accustomed to playing sport than posing for photos, gathered together within the grounds of the Castle, which dates back to the year 1311. The Castell de Bellver is highly representative of Mallorcan culture and heritage and was the perfect location for the team mates to show off the new 2024/2025 season´s first squad sports kit and make an updated photo to include newer staff members as well. CEO of Business, Alfonso Díaz, and CEO of Football, Pablo Ortells, lined up for the photo alongside players and coaching staff, with Jacoba Arrasate in prime position and newcomers Bittor Alkiza and Sergi Pérez. The team recently celebrated three consecutive wins.
