A Place in the Sun's Jasmine Harman has penned a heartbreaking tribute. Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the TV presenter told fans: "Some awful news. You may have seen on the news that Spain has been experiencing some terrible wildfires, and I was so sad to hear of the tragic deaths of several people in Bédar.

"Sending deepest condolences to those who have lost loved ones. Especially to Malcom, who previously appeared with his wife Annette on A Place in the Sun. I don't really have the words to say how very sorry I am for your loss, Malcolm. I know we have never met, I can't imagine what you are going through right now. Sending thoughts and prayers. RIP Annette and others."

Reacting to the news, fans paid tribute to Annette, Malcolm, and others affected by the wildfires.

"Really, really sad, condolences to all," wrote one. "I watched that episode. Absolutely devastating for everyone in Spain, particularly Malcolm who lost his beloved wife. Thinking of you and may she RIP," replied another.

Malcolm Timbrell, 70, and his wife Annette Kilgore, 69, had been living in the village of Bédar, which experienced devastating wildfires last week, leaving 13 people dead. In an interview with the BBC News at Six, which aired on Monday, Malcolm said: "We have had an amazing life together and now it's stopped.

"If we had done the sensible thing and gone the other way and let our cats die, we both would be alive. But when you've got animals, you don't think like that."

Malcolm concluded: "We are just waiting now for DNA clarification. And after that, I will probably just fall apart."

Annette and Malcolm, who appeared on A Place in the Sun, found their home in Bédar with help from Leah Charles-King in 2023. During the episode, the couple from Cornwall fell in love with a Spanish stone cottage, which was on the market for £215,746 at the time of filming. After making an initial offer of £175,000, Annette and Malcolm eventually purchased the property for a reduced price of £200,000.
