JOAN COLLINS HOLIDAYS IN MAJORCA ALONGSIDE NEW LOVE PERCY GIBSON

Previously, her preferred holiday destination was the South of France, but this year Joan Collins has plumped for the Spanish island of Majorca. Alongside new beau Percy Gibson, the 68-year-old actress cut a dash on the Balearic paradise over the weekend on board the magnificent yacht Gemini.

Joan has made no secret of her quest to stay in shape – and it certainly showed. Wearing a white swimsuit with plunging décolleté and a sleeveless white shirt, topped off with a hat, the actress paid a visit to her close friend Valentino, the Italian fashion designer, who has been responsible for many of Joan’s show-stopping outfits.

The reason for the switch in Mediterranean countries could have something to do with Joan’s ex, Robin Hurlstone. Twelve years ago, the antique dealer spotted a pretty Spanish-style hacienda in the village of La Croix Valmer, close to St Tropez. The actress spent £2 million on it before she and Robin renovated it and filled it with antiques.

Last month, Joan put the property on the market for £3 million, perhaps feeling that the place held too many memories for her. Robin, who was reportedly devastated by the split, is said to be shocked that his ex-love has put the house up for sale.
