SIR KARL CLAIM WAS MEG-A

A JURY found the sleazeball liable for sexually assaulting an advice columnist… yet he still plans to run for President and millions will vote for him. incompetence from the Portuguese and British police mean we may never get to the truth.

Maybe the most recent prime suspect, the convicted paedophile Christian Brueckner who is currently in jail for rape, holds the key.

But what is not in doubt is the impact this case has had on an entire generation. My own twin girls, both blonde and blue-eyed like Maddie, turn three next week.

We will be taking a trip abroad this summer. And, thanks in large part to the missing youngster’s legacy, I won’t be letting my girls out of my sight.

Not that I wouldn’t be guarding them with my life anyway. But Maddie will always be there in the back of mind – every time we go to the beach or go to dinner or when I tuck them into bed.

I will be super-vigilant and give them an even bigger squeeze and be thankful they are safe.

In a statement on her birthday Maddie’s parents Gerry and Kate said: “We’re waiting for you.”

We all are. The entire nation is waiting for answers. One day we hope this mystery is solved.

And we wish that Maddie herself will be the one to help explain it all.

MY highlight of King Chas’s deathly dull Coronation was composer Sir Karl Jenkins, who was there as a guest.

The moustachioed Welshman was forced to hilariously go public to debunk theories he was not, in fact, some shy American actress who’d sneaked into the Abbey.

Sir Karl admitted: “I was quite surprised that some people thought I was Meghan Markle in disguise.”

What a gloriously bonkers island we live on.

THE actor has proved age is just a number when it comes to having kids, after welcoming his seventh child at 79. Rob’s more Old Father than Godfather now.
