Dozens of bikini-clad women rescued from sinking £3.6m Lamborghini yacht in wild Miami boat party
The sun-soaked party on a luxury Lamborghini yacht turned into a nightmare when the £3.6million vessel began sinking off the coast of Miami Beach — with around 30 bikini-wearing women on board.
The lavish trip took place on Saturday afternoon during Formula One weekend, as the 30 women piled onto the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63 — a boat designed to carry just five passengers — for a boozy, champagne-filled day at sea.
But things took a terrifying turn when the yacht suddenly began tipping and quickly started to sink, leaving stunned partygoers scrambling for life jackets, reports the MailOnline.
Videos shared by passenger Lauren Nicole showed the women passing around bright orange life vests as panic set in. 'F*** my life,' she could be heard shouting as pieces of the expensive yacht floated nearby in the water.
Emergency services raced to the scene and swiftly evacuated all 32 people on board, according to CiberCuba. Miraculously, no serious injuries were reported.
Despite the dramatic ordeal, the party spirit remained strong. Footage from social media showed the group still laughing and dancing on rescue boats as they watched the £3.6m yacht vanish beneath the waves.
One woman even clung to a bottle of Clase Azul Gold Tequila — worth a staggering £265 — cradling it as she beamed with pride. Her friends shouted: 'Baby is safe!' and 'The women and children are okay!'
Lauren, meanwhile, shouted into the camera: 'Why God, why? Why did you do this to us?' as she sailed away from the scene.
Crowds gathered on the shore, filming the dramatic scenes as the Miami Coast Guard swarmed the sinking yacht.
Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident, with the yacht reportedly overloaded far beyond its intended capacity. The Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63, a high-end collaboration between the Italian supercar brand and The Italian Sea Group, is only built to accommodate five guests and two crew.
Still, the perilous mishap didn't spoil the rest of the Miami girls' getaway. Later that day, Lauren shared more clips from a lively event at Jungle Island, showing the group partying on — seemingly unfazed by the near disaster.
The boat trip was part of the glitzy Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix weekend — a star-studded, three-day racing event that draws sports fans and celebrities alike to the Magic City.
That evening, A-listers including NFL star Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany were spotted enjoying a VIP Carbone Beach party, where they were seen mingling backstage with rapper and singer Jelly Roll, who later performed at the exclusive bash.

Formula Legends' ‘F1 across the eras' is so good, you wonder why nobody did it already
Gaming With a playable demo out now, TG checks in with one of our most anticipated racing games Skip 10 photos in the image carousel and continue reading Formula One's best asset isn't the Netflix show or the upcoming movie. It isn't even the audio library of Kimi Raikkonen's best team radio lines, which will surely sustain the next century of meme creation. It's the heritage. The 75 years of history, iconic machinery, immortal heroes and feats of unfathomable bravery. Odd, then, that indie simcade racer Formula Legends is something of an outlier for encapsulating the sport's various historical eras in one experience. When we first saw the reveal trailer and digested the concept – an accessible, cartoonised take on circuit racing featuring unlicensed takes on F1 cars from the 1960s to present – we got quite excited. Having taken a deeper look at the game, which now has a playable demo live on Steam from 6 June, that excitement is now veritably bubbling. Advertisement - Page continues below The first thing that stands out about the racing is the quality of AI opponents. They jostle with each other in braking zones and take varying lines through turns, which really shouldn't be a rarity in the modern genre but somehow is. 3D Clouds founder Francesco Bruschi explains: 'We don't have a learning AI. It's very simple, but very tuned for the feeling that the player's in a real race. What you've seen is our first pass at that, we're not at the finish yet. I want a clean race with maybe some [AI] mistakes and different strategies. My first priority is to bring my racing experience to our development.' You might like And that might be the secret sauce that makes Formula Legends stand out: this isn't a studio having a stab at what the community might want from a game like this. It's members of that community making the game they want to play. This might be a friendly and approachable looking title, but it's the hidden depths like tyre wear and pit strategies that elevate it, and they've found their way into this game because Bruschi has been modding racing games since the days of the venerable Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 2 in 1996. He's also a former racer who's competed against Sebastian Vettel in Formula Renault, among other accolades. Advertisement - Page continues below Structurally, it works like you'd imagine. Career mode takes you from the cigar-shaped deathtraps of the 1960s right through to modern energy-harvesting machinery, all in unlicensed but very recognisable form. There are over 100 different vehicles to span those seasons, and their liveries are instantly recognisable nods to their real-life counterparts. Likewise the drivers, whose names have had their letters jumbled in early '90s console racer style, but remain easy to decode. Each era of vehicle has its own handling behaviour and is built around a different physics model. The older cars will step out around corners and prompt your brain to provide a quick supercut of your life before the tyres find traction again, while the modern ground effect cars will reflect the greater downforce and turn-in speed. You really notice the sound differences between historical eras, too. The turbos sound like turbos, with that same musical roar that soundtracked many a Prost-Senna tussle. Details like that all contributed to Formula Legends ' warm reception when it was revealed, and that reception confirmed what Bruschi's team suspected: there's a gap in the genre for this exact experience. 'About a year ago we were thinking about Art of Rally ,' says producer Francesco Mantovani, 'which is our main reference at this point. Thank you for subscribing to our newsletter. Look out for your regular round-up of news, reviews and offers in your inbox. Get all the latest news, reviews and exclusives, direct to your inbox. 'It has received a big response from the market, and we wondered why nobody made this kind of game about the F1 world. We started working on it, we had some doubts along the way, but when we first saw the first prototype we realised there was something huge there.' That positive reception at reveal also spurred 3DClouds on, and fuelled the team's motivation to create a playable demo before launch. 'When we shared the trailer, says Bruschi, 'I knew that we had something good in our hands. We caused all sorts of praise and discussion, everybody was enjoying this game. We'll share something new in the next month, and also the demo.' Of course the hands-on experience will make or break Formula Legends , but with the team's experience on and off the track, it stands a better chance than most.

The Made In Chelsea star, 32, has undergone an impressiv journey transporting the Soccer Aid matchball 60 miles from London's Stamford Bridge to Manchester's Old Trafford ground. Sam took part in the challenge to raise money for Unicef, which provides aid to children, including health, nutrition, education, and emergency relief. He has battled through agonising pain to make it to the finish line, after a nasty injury on the first day when he tore his calf muscle. The podcast host made it to the end on foot, however, and was embraced by his sister Louise, her fiancé Ryan Libbey, and their three-year-old son Leo. Sam has raised a whopping £1,516,433 for Unicef, sharing his thanks to those who have supported him along the way. 'My legs have completely gone, but I feel good. I'm so grateful for everyone being here, I didn't think anyone would turn up,' he said (per MailOnline). 'To everyone who has donated, I've said it before, but I'll say it a million times, you are so heroic. The money will help so many children, I'm so grateful.' Speaking to MailOnline, he revealed how he was left 'crying into his physio' when he thought his leg injury meant he could not complete the marathon. 'And just 2km away from the finish line of the first marathon on day one, my calf popped, and when that happened, I remember crying,' he said. 'I was crying into the physio, whose a lovely guy, into his arms pretty much being like: 'I'm not going to be able to do this,' and he went 'I don't know what to tell you, this isn't go away, you're not going to be able to put any weight on it, it's a three-and-a-half, four week recovery period, so I don't know what to tell you, and I just burst into tears. That was a really bad day.' He has been supported along the way by several famous faces, including Chris Hughes, Jamie Laing, and Staying Relevant podcast co-host Pete Wicks. Speaking to Metro earlier in the week, Sam shared how he was determined to 'stop crying' when being surprised by his supportive pals along the way. 'I've decided I'm not going to cry anymore. I can't keep crying. I keep crying. I cried like, three times already, and we're on day three! 'It was, I don't know how to describe it. It's, it's one of those things where, because you just don't know it's coming, and you're in a world of pain, and you're just trying to think, 'one foot in front of the other, one foot in front of the other.' 'And then you see somebody who'd been your rock through everything, just at some random junction, like in the middle of the road. 'I can't explain the feeling. It's just like, it's like seeing home when you are miles away.' He also praised the support fellow reality TV star Laing gave him, who ran his own ultramarathon for Comic Relief. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 'I spoke to him a lot. He's a very good friend of mine. He's been messaging me throughout this, actually, as well. He's really been there for me, and he's obviously been through it himself,' he continued. More Trending 'So I'm so grateful to have him there as well.' He added that all the people who have come out to support him, along with the money he's raising for an incredible cause, are keeping him going during the tough moments. 'I'm just a vehicle – clearly a bad vehicle because I can't even keep one leg good – but I'm a vehicle for this journey. The journey is all about Unicef. It's all about the kids,' Sam said. 'It's the donors who donate, and the donations that are coming in. Any person who literally donates one pound is the hero of this story. And it's just, it has shocked me just how heroic people are to do this when times are obviously incredibly tough. It just, it's blown me away.' Got a story?

EastEnders star's emotional reaction to plot 'not done before' as fans reach out
EastEnders' Lauren Branning actress Jacqueline Jossa revealed all on her character's emotional new storyline about baby son Jimmy's health on the BBC soap, with fans reaching out online Amid an emotional few weeks on EastEnders for Lauren Branning, actress Jacqueline Jossa, who plays her, has shared her reaction to the plot that "hadn't been done before". In recent episodes Lauren has faced spiralling, almost relapsing and turning to alcohol following a sad diagnosis for her newborn son Jimmy. There was also the heartbreaking split with Peter Beale as the pair were torn apart, after Peter blamed Lauren's painkiller addiction on their baby boy being diagnosed with a severe sight impairment. Lauren knew there was something not right with her son days after his birth, but her loved ones were concerned for her and believed she was mistaken. Questioning if she had postnatal depression, her fears for Jimmy were ignored until she took him to hospital and he was diagnosed. In the aftermath, Peter has struggled with his son's condition, and it's pulled him and Lauren apart after his lack of trust in her and his cruel accusations. Lauren nearly relapsed and even cheated with Zack Hudson after Peter's action pushed her to the edge. This week we saw Lauren call Peter a "manipulator" and end their relationship for good, just weeks after they got engaged. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, Jacqueline spoke about the moving storyline with Jimmy and shared her "honest" reaction. Jacqueline has been left overwhelmed with the response to the plot, with fans heaping praise on her portrayal. But it was the messages she was inundated with after the episodes aired from people who have been through or are going through what Lauren is, both with Jimmy's diagnosis and postpartum struggles, that left her making a moving realisation. Being "totally honest", actress Jacqueline didn't realise the impact her scenes and plot would have on viewers until it transmitted leading to huge praise for the star. Jacqueline told us: "If I'm totally honest I was excited to do the storyline, but I wasn't aware of the impact until it went on TV. "I thought I was telling Lauren's story and then all of a sudden it felt like I was telling a lot of other people's stories that I didn't really realise. In a way I am glad that I didn't go deep in with researching, cos then there would have been loads of pressure and I would probably have overthought it. "But I was really excited do it. It's not really been done so it's exciting." On the feedback from viewers, Jacqueline revealed she'd been messaged by so many people. She revealed: "It's been amazing, really amazing. It's nice to hear from people and talk to people who have been through it or are going through it. Even the postpartum side of the storyline, people who have been through it or are maybe seeing the signs." Jacqueline also shared her thoughts over Lauren and Peter's split, amid fans saying Lauren deserves better. She told us: "It's EastEnders and it's also life. "That is the thing. These things happen and when things happen in life, they take different turns so who knows."
