Teacher and fitness trainer Susan Catherine Mannion, who is from Castlebar, Co. Mayo, but lives in Dublin, said her son was 'very seriously injured' in Magaluf. Victim Arran Mannion is in his mid-20s. In a statement posted on the Facebook page Magaluf 2025, his mother wrote: 'I am reaching out in the hope that someone may be able to help me.

Pic: Holger Leue/Getty 'He is currently being treated in a hospital in Majorca and has life-changing injuries,' she said: 'Any information, no matter how big or small, would be so appreciated at this time. Please help us.' Many people wrote comments of support under her post, with one woman writing: 'Absolutely awful, so sorry to hear this, when I was there two weeks ago, there was a ridiculous amount of fights every night and people with blood from head to toe, it was awful to see.' She added: 'Hope your son gets all the right help.' Teacher and fitness trainer Susan Catherine Mannion, who is from Castlebar, Co.

Pic: Facebook There has been concern about rowdiness and fighting in Magaluf for many years, as it often attracts a young crowd to its many nightclubs and bars. Spanish tourist officials and local police have worked together to crack down on street violence and loutish behaviour. Many tourist sites have commented that this year's crackdown has led to a significant drop in the number of young tourists visiting the town. On August 9, the Daily Star newspaper reported: 'This decline in visitor figures to the Spanish destination stems from tough crackdowns on unruly holidaymakers. 'The infamous Punta Ballena strip faced criticism when ex-Majorca official Jose Ramon Bauza condemned it as '500 metres of shame'.

Subsequently, in an effort to tackle 'boozy tourism', severe drinking restrictions were implemented.' Ms Mannion told last night that she would prefer not to make any media comment for the time being. Spanish police have yet to release any information about the stabbing. Ms Mannion previously appeared on The Late Late Show for the Irish Cancer Society to promote the Daffodil Day fundraising campaign to boost cancer treatment and research. In 2020, she was named as Connaught Mum Of The Year by Woman's Way magazine after she was nominated by her son Arran. 'I am so proud to be the son of a single mother,' he wrote in his nomination. 'She is a tower of strength and does everything with the utmost integrity… When I was six weeks old, Mum returned to school and completed her Leaving Cert as normal.' In the same article, Ms Mannion wrote: 'Arran is such a good kid and we didn't have it easy. It was so hard. I had him when I was 17 and in fifth year at school.' However, she added: 'There was never a moment when I thought: 'I can't go through with this' or I have to leave school or anything like that.' Ms Mannion later obtained her teaching and personal training qualifications.

Tommy Fury admits he was drunk when Molly-Mae walked out
Reality TV star Tommy Fury has said he does not remember what it felt like when his fiancée Molly Mae-Hague walked out on him with their daughter Bambi, as he was intoxicated. The boxer, 26, who met Hague on ITV dating show Love Island, speaks about his his struggles with alcohol dependency in his new BBC Three docu-series, Tommy: The Good, The Bad, The Fury. In episode one he says: "I've never even said this before, but when they'd actually left the house, I was actually drunk at that point, so I don't actually remember it that well, which was even more upsetting. "I woke up. I was like shit, and I was listening to probably the silence of the house for like an hour. I was like, f***. And that was the last time they've been here. "I'm not going to lie and say I knew the feeling of what it was like when they walked out, I didn't because I was intoxicated. "But no matter how drunk I was, as long as Bambi's routine stayed the same, I'd still be up in the morning, quarter past seven, making a bottle in the microwave, doing the milk, getting her up, bringing her down, making her breakfast. "I'm still doing all that and, in my mind, if I could keep my fatherly duties going everything else will be OK." Also in the episode, Fury denies allegations of cheating that were spread online, and emphasises that the breakdown of their relationship was because of his problems with alcohol. Fury, who is the half-brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, and Hague, 26, were runners up on Love Island in 2019, and announced their engagement in July 2023. In August 2024, they said that the relationship had ended, in separate social media messages, with Fury saying he was "heartbroken" to share the news. In an episode of her Prime Video docuseries, Behind It All, Hague spoke about how his drinking had affected their relationship, and in series two she gave an update on their future, saying that they have something "worth saving". In his new TV series the boxer "bares all about the demons that drove him to drink" and tries to prove to Hague that he is "a dependable father and partner once again", according to a description from the BBC. The series also looks at his boxing career, which took a backseat amid his hand surgery in January 2024. Fury said: "I feel like whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger and that year of 2024 was the toughest year by far. "It's a long way behind me now. I'm not that person any more, and I feel like everything's a lesson."
