In a momentous collaborative event, Governor Chadchart joined forces with H.E. Mr. Robert F. Godec, the US Ambassador to Thailand, and some remarkable experts from the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), including Professor Miho Mazereeuw and Dr. Sai Ravela.

The first 100 shoppers will receive a special goodie bag of products.

The new store will bring KIKO’s trendsetting, high-quality makeup, skincare, and beauty products to even more beauty enthusiasts in the heart of the city centre.

The new Grafton Street store will continue to deliver an immersive and modern beauty retail experience, offering the brand’s extensive product range from vibrant cosmetics to essential skincare rooted in the latest beauty trends. 

Managing Director of KIKO Milano, Paul Devin, said: “We are thrilled to open our third Irish store, this time on the iconic Grafton Street. 

“The response to our first two stores has been phenomenal, and expanding to such a prestigious shopping destination allows us to reach even more customers.

Meanwhile, Lidl Ireland opened a new store in Galway recently in a major boost for shoppers.

Located in Claregalway, this is the retailer’s 100th store to feature a solar PV system that will generate more than 20 per cent of the building’s energy requirements.

And it is set to create 30 new jobs in the local area in a boost to residents.

It represents a €7million investment into the community by the retailer, and is located right in the centre of the village.

EASTENDERS actress Clair Norris has broken her silence on her soap exit.

The star has played the role of Bernadette Taylor in the BBC soap opera for eight years but her final scenes are now playing out today.

She is leaving her role as Bernie Taylor[/caption]

It marks the end of an era for the Walford-based soap, as her exit brings an end to the Taylor family, with all characters from the show having left or been axed by show bosses.

Actress Clair has now shared a heartfelt message about her time on the show as she bids farewell to Albert Square.

Taking to social media, the star penned: “My last ep airs tonight
& with that comes a flood of memories…

“EastEnders was my first audition, and my first job.

“Having come from college & having no experience in this industry, Julia, Wayne & Sean all took a chance on me to play Bernadette Taylor & for that, I can’t be thankful enough.

“8 years later and honestly this job, has changed my life.”

Clair continued: “It’s true what they all said at the beginning, EastEnders is one big family & I’m so lucky to have met and worked with some amazing people.

“I will always have an attachment to Bernie, she represents so many girls out there who wear their heart of their sleeves and don’t quite fit in…no offence to anyone who wear purple coats…

“I have adored playing her and she will forever hold a special place in my heart.

“This has been the best first role ever!!!”

Bernie departed on-screen alongside her cousin Felix Baker.

Viewers discovered last week how Bernie had been stealing from the Panesars after being left over-all control of the business empire by Nish after his death at Christmas.

Realising what was going on, Ravi and Vinny set a trap for Bernie to expose her as the thief – giving her another chance to steal from them.

But they had no idea Bernie wasn’t planning to stick around to face the consequences.

Now, her time is up[/caption]

She packed her bags and convinced Felix to come with her

Having fallen for Ravi and Vinny’s trap and taken another £25,000 from the Panesar businesses, Bernie and Felix were set to leave.

But as they headed to the cab, Suki got in the way and stopped them with other members of The Six watching.

“She stole from me,” said Suki.

“No, you did,” hit back Bernie. “You all did. You stole from me and my family. Something that I can never get back.”

Kathy and Linda begged Suki to let Bernie go with the cash, and she stepped aside.

Bernie and Felix climbed into the cab and drove off – just as Ravi emerged to watch the shocking development.

A DISTURBING epidemic is sweeping through Germany with hundreds of people reporting sexual assaults in public swimming pools.

In one of the worst hit regions, 74 alleged attacks have been recorded recently with several involving children – including eight young girls in one day.

Barbarossabad

Just last weekend, four men were arrested over sexual assault claims at the Barbarossabad swimming pool in Hesse[/caption]

The issue has started to raise questions across Germany after a concerning number of reports were made last weekend.

Cops arrested four Syrian suspects, aged 18 to 28, and accused them of sexually assaulting up to eight girls in a public swimming pool in Hesse.

They were aged between 11 to 16 and had all been at the Barbarossabad pool on the same day. 

And now further stats have shown a total of 74 cases of sexual violence were registered in Hesse’s swimming pools alone in 2024.

The study, done by the State Criminal Police Office (LKA), marks a worrying trend in the region with the number rising from 2023.

It also provided an insight into the main culprits of the alleged assaults.

In 60 per cent of cases, the suspects were not born in Germany.

And out of the 57 people questioned by cops over the allegations, only two were women.

Hesse’s Interior Minister Roman Poseck has made it clear that any formal complaint must be taken seriously so any recurring fiends can be taken off the streets.

He demanded: “The incidents at the swimming pool in Gelnhausen must be investigated swiftly and comprehensively.

“We must not allow our swimming pools to become sites of sexual assault.”

Elsewhere, Cologne has been forced to put up makeshift posters raising awareness of potential poolside dangers.

The sign shows a blonde man grabbing a young woman from behind as they both swim.

The heading reads: “Stop! No groping!”

There are said to be dozens of the posters spread across the city.

Despite the concerning national rise, German police are refusing to say swimming pools have become a hotspot for sexual crimes.

But Peter Harzheim, the president of the Federal Association of German Swimming Masters (BDS), says the numbers are worrying.

He said: “Many people are getting out of control because the sun is shining on their brains.

“The number of skilled workers is decreasing, which creates the risk that we will no longer be able to keep an eye on everything and intervene accordingly.”

The issue has been a long-standing one for many Germans.

Back in 2016, a town banned male asylum seekers from a public swimming pool after several women complained of harassment.

A government official in Bornheim said the men would be barred until they “got the message” that such behaviour will not be tolerated.

LOVE Island’s newest bombshell Ryan Bannister is used to a jetset lifestyle which includes beach club visits and a month long holiday in Ibiza.

As well as workout videos and fitness tips, gym enthusiast Ryan’s Instagram is packed with trips abroad to sunny locations.

One place he appears to REALLY like is Ibiza.

In fact the hunk in trunks stayed on the Party Isle for a month as he soaked up the sun with pals.

Sharing pictures from his four week trip, Ryan wrote: “Honestly could write a book with everything that’s happened in just 1 month in Ibiza.

“Met the most amazing people and only lost/broke 6 pairs of sunglasses. Vamosssss.”

In the slew of holiday snaps he shared, Ryan did what all Love Island stars do, and made sure to make a trip to Wayne Lineker’s famous Ocean Beach bar.

Earlier today the Sun revealed how Ryan is one of two new bombshells going into the villa for a summer of love.

A source told us: “The Islanders have been crying out for some bombshells with so many of them currently single.

“It’s only really Meg and Dejon who are in any way settled which is bonkers at this stage of the game.

“The villa is a bombshells paradise right now and it’s everything to play for.”

Quizzed by ITV but his ideal girl, Ryan said: “A tanned brunette with a good body, bubbly personality, a joy to be around.

“They’ve got to be funny and someone I just love spending time with. I also like a bit of a fiery side.”

Asked about his dating rules, he revealed: “A red flag would be someone who jumps from relationship to relationship and isn’t happy on their own.

“A green flag is when people have good things to say about you, having a good family and set of friends.”
