- From Emine Sinmaz in Barcelona THE AMERICAN CELEBRATIN­G HIS WEDDING ANNIVERSAR­Y

FEARS were growing last night for a Brit- ish-born boy aged seven who was separated from his mother in the attack.

There has been no sign of Julian Cadman, who grew up in Kent but now lives in Sydney, since the terrorists struck.

His mother Jumarie was understood to be in a serious condition in the Vall d’Hebron Hospital yesterday.

Julian’s father Andrew, who is Australian, last heard from the pair – reportedly in Barcelona to attend a wedding – hours before the attack. He was flying to Spain last night to try to find his son.

Family members posted a picture online of the schoolboy wearing a jumper from the Chiddingst­one Nursery in Kent. It is understood they moved to Australia four years ago. Family friend Norma Canaveral, of London, said: ‘We are just so worried. I am just waiting for news, hoping for good news.’

The 66-year-old added: ‘His mother is in the hospital, she’s OK, but she became separated from Julian and we don’t know where he is. All we can do is wait.’

Family friend Norie Brown said Julian was ‘a typical boy’ who loves cars, adding: ‘We are kind of just thinking the worst.’ Constructi­on worker Jared Tucker and wife Heidi Nunes had been celebratin­g their first wedding anniversar­y on Las Ramblas an hour before the attack.

The 42-year-old has not been seen since he popped into a restaurant while Miss Nunes, from California, looked at a stall.

The 40-year-old told NBC News: ‘He left me to use the restroom and within seconds there was screaming and yelling and people running.
