Husband of missing Michele Ann Joy Bourda was LAUGHED AT as he begged for help

Chris Bourda woke to find his wife Michele Ann Joy Bourda had vanished from the sunbed beside him on the beach in Kavala, Greece, on Friday - and he's now very worried The husband of a Brit who vanished in Greece has told of how he was laughed at when he frantically pleaded for help. ‌ Chris Bourda, 66, dozed off on a sun lounger and woke to find 59-year-old Michele Ann Joy Bourda had gone. Her belongings had remained on the sun lounger, even her towel, but Michele was nowhere to be found on Friday afternoon. ‌ Chris is still desperately searching for his wife in Kavala, Greece, but, when he asked a waiter at a restaurant beside the beach if he had seen Michele, he was mocked. The panicked husband eventually convinced a shopkeeper to help him and call the police. It comes after a Brit who vanished in Paris was discovered safe some two weeks later. ‌ Speaking from Kavala last night, Chris, who is a pharmacist, said: "Unfortunately I fell asleep and when I woke up she wasn't there... I went back to the waiter to say my wife was missing, have you seen her and he started laughing." ‌ Chris, who lives with Michele in Glasgow, has slammed the Greek police for their lack of urgency in searching for his spouse. He said he did not see a single police officer on the beach they day she went missing - a claim echoed by a fellow hotel guest. "The police didn't do anything on the day. One guest who was there that day said she didn't see any police and I didn't see any police that day either, not one single policeman at the beach. The only thing I saw was a police car driving up and down the road to the beach. Not getting out of the car, just looking in the direction of the sea," Chris, who has a son with Michele, said last night. ‌ Recalling the day Michele vanished, Chris told the Daily Mail his partner was "quite happy" and he and his wife had been for a swim in the sea. Michele, who worked at BT before working at a local council, had flown out to Greece with Chris for a two-week holiday last month. But Chris is now despairing at the bleak situation. The dad, who met Michele at university 36 years ago, continued: "I have been searching without sleep or anything. Day and night, especially early in the morning. It was hard to see at night though as it was so dark. "For days and nights I have gone up down the coast, searched bushes, olive groves, empty houses, building sites, later I went to the hills, nothing... The whole night before she had been holding my hand and you would never think anything was wrong or something like this would ever happen." Michele is described as being 5ft 6in, of a slim build with blue eyes and shoulder-length hair. She was last seen wearing a rhinestone-embellished two-piece beaded swimsuit, yellow beach shoes and a pair of red horn-rimmed sunglasses.

They were reportedly asked due to investigators seeing if it involved potential domestic violence. But a family source revealed to the MailOnline the pair grew close to one another after they both split from their partners. They soon got into into a relationship and have now been together for the past two years, according to the source. They said: "Mark and Jasmine have been seeing each other for a few years, but they've never admitted it. "[The couple] do an awful lot together and they go away on holiday with the children a couple of times every year. "They went to Florida two years ago and have been to Budapest where she posted pictures of them together like a couple." Wyld - a hairdresser - separated from Gibbon's son Alex, 34, back in 2021 but the pair still share two young children together. Gibbon divorced his wife and lives alone at a £800,000 semi-detached home in Beaconsfield he purchased in 2023. The secret couple are alleged to spend a lot of time inside the large Buckinghamshire home together. Alex has had several major issues with his dad in the past including being jailed in 2024 for driving into Gibbon with an £80,000 Porsche Cayenne. The pair also became embroiled in a public row in 2023 after Alex left his dad's business for an unknown reason. The family source confirmed that Alex and Gibbon no longer speak. They added: "He feels an awful betrayal at how his dad has struck up a relationship with the mother of his two children." Gibbon is now behind bars over a separate family falling out with Wyld. The couple were on holiday at the Solterra Resort in Devenport, near Disney World, Florida with the two children. Gibbon and Wyld soon began arguing over the "stipulations of his will" around a pool, according to US police. The granddad then pushed Jasmine's head "under the water and held her down multiple times", according to the arrest affidavit. She told cops after the ordeal she "could not breathe and believed that she was going to drown," according to Polk's County Sheriff's Office. 7 Wyld and Gibbon's son Alex share two children together Credit: Facebook 7 The secret couple are alleged to spend a lot of time inside Gibbon's large Buckinghamshire home together Credit: Facebook 7 Wyld was saved by her daughter and two neighbours after Gibbon allegedly forced her head underwater Credit: Facebook According to deputies, Jasmine was forced to "fight Mark in order to get away from him and from under the water but he kept pushing her back under". Her nine-year-old daughter then tried to help despite having no idea what was going on as she leapt into the water to her mother's defence She tried desperately to intervene, but Gibbon allegedly kept pushing her away. Jasmine spotted some two women in the distance and screamed at them to call 911. Gibbon is said to have stopped only when the sisters said they were calling the sheriff's office. He now faces one count of attempted murder and two counts of battery. The family source admitted the pair had been through troubling times of late. They said: "But I have been told that Jasmine was unhappy that they have been in a relationship for a few years and she is not named in his will." When questioned, Gibbon allegedly admitted to pushing Jasmine underwater, but insisted he hadn't been trying to drown her. He claimed they had been drinking, began arguing and that she slapped him - which triggered the fight, reports Law & Crime. Gibbon is a lighting technician, who runs his own firm called MRG Lighting. He has worked on music videos for Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and Paloma Faith, according to his website, as well as on film and TV sets. He is also listed as the only director of Sage Hairdressing. The Sun has reached out to Gibbon for comment.

McLaren admit Lando Norris vs Oscar Piastri could turn into Lewis Hamilton 2007 nightmare

McLaren have two drivers battling each other for the F1 title again and in 2007 the last time that happened, it didn't end so well between Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso McLaren will let Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri race for title glory – but admit things could blow up as badly as the last time they had two drivers in a championship fight. The feud between rookie Lewis Hamilton and two-time champion Fernando Alonso in 2007 tore the team apart. ‌ It led to Alonso quitting after both were beaten to the Formula 1 title by Kimi Raikkonen, who remains the most recent champion to win with Ferrari. Max Verstappen is 97 points behind championship leader Piastri and so a repeat of that is highly unlikely to happen. ‌ And the Aussie has managed to maintain a strong relationship with Norris despite both hunting individual honours. But McLaren Racing chief executive Zak Brown admits that could all change as they remain committed to letting their drivers decide things on track. ‌ The American said: "We're comfortable with how we go racing. We also know we don't always get it right. We are and always will be, and I think we always have been, a two-car team. We recognise the consequences of that could be 2007. You got two drivers that tie and lose to Kimi by a point. "We could have won that drivers' championship, but who do you pick? And then you run the risk of the guy you don't pick, he's out of here. Our drivers are treated equally fairly. There's nothing in their contract that gives one priority over the other, nor have they ever asked for that. They just want fair and equal treatment. "We know that benefits the team. They accept that, they're cool with that, and we know the risk of that, if you'd like, from a driver point of view, is 2007. But I think the downside of favouring one or the other is that one then wants to leave, which is exactly what happened at the end of '07 [anyway].

You see other teams favour one, and that kind of is beneficial to the drivers' championship, but detrimental to the constructors'. Both championships are equally important to us." McLaren are 299 points clear at the top with 10 rounds remaining and are almost certain to retain their teams' title this year. But things between their drivers are remarkable tight with Piastri just nine points ahead after Norris' victory in Hungary last Sunday.

But that was a misjudgement on the Brit's part rather than two drivers going over the line, and Norris admitted as quickly as his apologies were accepted by both Piastri and the team. And Brown remains confident, adding: "I don't think they will properly fall out, because of the communication, trust and respect we all have, and they have for each other. We're very fortunate to have the two personalities that we have. We love the challenge - like, I'm looking forward to them racing each other. So we like it. It's not the elephant in the room."
