Inside Brooklyn Beckham's 'financial flex' in feud with dad David as his £85m superyacht dwarfs family's £16m vessel
A spokesperson for the company said the concept is about creating freedom, travel, and comfort for those looking to retire in style or just live life on their own terms.
When can I retire?
IF you're wondering when you can retire, it's best to speak to your pension providers.
Firstly, use the government's tool to check your state pension age.
Next check retirement ages on workplace pension schemes - this can massively impact your windfall once you enter your golden years.
For advice, you can contact The Pensions Advisory Service for free online or on 0800 011 3797.
Luxury yachts
And it's not the only mega-yacht making headlines this season.
The 390ft superyacht Breakthrough, rumoured to belong to billionaire Bill Gates, is also set to make its grand debut at the Monaco Yacht Show this September.
The £476million ship has been billed as the first-ever hydrogen-powered yacht, and comes with jaw-dropping features including a cinema, basketball court, hospital, two offices, and enough staterooms to house an entire football team.
If Gates really is behind it, he's got competition from Brooklyn Beckham, who was recently spotted sailing into Saint-Tropez aboard his billionaire in-laws' 80-metre yacht, Project X, worth a cool £85million.
Meanwhile, his dad David Beckham was moored nearby on his own £16million vessel Seven, which looks like a dinghy by comparison.
From sci-fi style yachts to floating mansions with four-storey townhouses tucked inside, it's clear 2025 is the year of the mega boat flex.
And with VanDutch leading the charge in design, tech and speed, it might just be time to trade your retirement home for a vessel spot.

The Turkish hotel they usually stay at is the Regnum Carya in Antalya, where rooms start from around £1,000 per person per night. They have been there so many times, Stacey now refers to it as her "second home". The couple have a blended family of six children. They share three kids together – Rex, six, Rose, three, and Belle, two – while Stacey is also mum to Zachary, 17, and Leighton, 12, and Joe has 18-year-old son Harry with his ex Emma Sophocleous. However, in the family photo from their holiday fans were quick to point out that Harry wasn't on the trip. Stacey posted slew of sweet snaps of her and Joe with their other five kids and wrote: "Time to make some memories my whole world 🥹 can't wait for some special time with my babies. "Got one picture of us all the second one is every photo ever happy summer everyone from pickle cottage to our second home at this point." But while most followers pointed out what a lovely photos they were, some took to the comments to cruelly mum-shame Stacey over this. One fan wrote: "Lovely family pic. Wish Joe eldest son was included more." Stacey Solomon clashes with husband Joe Swash as they reveal relationship struggles in therapy While another added: "Why is Joe's eldest son never with them." This person said: "I agree would be nice for them to acknowledge they're missing one!" Their holiday comes just days after it was reported how Stacey and Joe have made a "vow" amid "silly bickering", according to a source. It comes after "tension" between the popular couple has recently been captured on TV. Stacey Solomon's career so far Stacey Solomon has been a familiar face on viewers' screens for over a decade. Let's take a look back at her career. The X Factor (2009): Stacey competed in series six of long-running ITV singing competition The X Factor. During her time in the show, she was mentored by Danni Minogue in the 'Girls' category. The star finished in third place, behind Joe McElderry and Olly Murs. I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here (2010); In late 2010, Stacey headed to the infamous I'm A Celeb Aussie jungle. After 21 days, she triumphed to win the tenth series. It was through I'm A Celeb that she met future husband Joe Swash - who'd won two years earlier and was hosting the ITV2 spinoff. Celebrity Juice (2011―2013, 2016―2019): The star appeared as a panellist on 21 episodes of the comedy panel game show hosted by Keith Lemon. Stacey was a regular in the 21st series, broadcast in 2019. Loose Women (2016 - present): Stacey has been a permanent panel member of the daytime show since 2016. She previously made guest appearances in 2011 and 2012. Sort Your Life Out (2022 -present): This BBC show sees Stacey, with the help of an expert team, transform participants' living spaces after removing clutter. However, according to a source, the couple have vowed to take time out to remember why they're so good for each other. During their BBC reality show, the pair shared a close-up look into the ups and downs of life at Pickle Cottage and their relationship. The source told New Magazine: 'There's tension in the air and there is a bit of bickering. But it puts a strain on any relationship. "You look at those on reality shows, such as the wives in The Real Housewives, with cameras in their houses 24/7, and a lot of their relationships crack under the pressure.' Despite this, the source maintained that a break away from the cameras, however small, is just what Stacey and Joe need. The source added: 'They're worried that if they don't have a break from the cameras and the limelight, it could affect what makes their relationship special. 'They're still very much in love and are really trying to focus on each other amid the silly bickering and moments of tension, and remember why they got together in the first place – and why they're actually so perfect together. "They have vowed to carve out some quality time this summer to do that."

The McDonald's that's one of the world's most beautiful with pretty outdoor courtyard and volcano views
Plus, one of the most unique McDonald's where you can sit in a disused plane CHIP IN The McDonald's that's one of the world's most beautiful with pretty outdoor courtyard and volcano views Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GOLDEN arches and red seating, it's safe to say that most McDonald's generally have the same look - apart from this one. In Guatemala there's a restaurant of the fast food chain that looks nothing like you'd expect, and has been called the 'prettiest in the world'. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 This McDonald's has standout views and even a fountain Credit: Tripadvisor 5 There are shaded areas in the courtyard too Credit: Tripadvisor Win one of 8 incredible holidays to the Caribbean, Mexico and Greece by voting in The Sun's Travel Awards - enter to win here McDonald's Antigua, Guatemala has ditched the usual McDonald's design for a beautiful courtyard, and incredible views. The restaurant is in the central highlands of Guatemala - so if you look out you get views of the enormous Agua volcano. It has a large beautiful cobbled courtyard full of lush green trees, bright flower, and tables with sun umbrellas surrounding a huge fountain. Some videos on social media even show off live music outside. You don't forget it's a McDonald's, though, when you spot a huge Ronald McDonald statue on a bench. It has made an impression with visitors too, one wrote on Tripadvisor: "I guarantee you won't have seen a McDonald's like it." Another said: "The McDonald's here is amazing. Because of the city's historical preservation rules, you won't know that McDonald's is there unless you happen to walk by and look inside." A third commented: "You can eat some burgers or ice cream with a beautiful view of mountains." It even has a swing set integrated into its design which has appeared multiple times on Instagram and TikTok. McDonald's new menu taste test 5 The McDonald's is the same as any other when it comes to food Credit: Tripadvisor 5 Visitors remember it's a McDonald's when they spot the statue of Ronald Credit: Tripadvisor McDonald's knows what they're doing, as there's one very quirky restaurant in New Zealand that's inside a decommissioned DC-3 plane. On the aircraft-turned fast-food restaurant in Taupō, New Zealand, you have to climb the original plane stairs that lead into the restaurant. Inside there's not a lot of room, but 20 diners can sit across 10 tables. There's also the cockpit, which has been preserved behind a glass wall. The outside of the plane has been repainted, and the previous airline name has been replaced with the McDonald's logo of course. The tail end of the plane features the classic McDonald's golden arches and outside, there's a playground for kids as well. Here are more of McDonald's restaurants around the world that are both beautiful and unusual, from former banks to UNESCO sites. Plus, inside the world's most tranquil McDonald's with Japanese-themed tea garden and serene river.
