Coleen Rooney in Marbella, and LOADS of new openings!

As we head into the literal half point of the year, we are excited to bring you the latest episode of Marbella with Him & Her, your weekly podcast about Marbella, San Pedro de Alcantara and more. This week we speak about Coleen Rooney in San Pedro, Go Henry, The FTD Brothers, La Sala by the Sea and so much more.

Your presenters of Marbella with Him & Her are PJ Lopez (@pjlopez1marbella) and Hannah Murray (@radiohannah). In case this is your first time listening, they are an expat couple that live in San Pedro de Alcantara, Marbella who also run the popular San Pedro Guide. PJ is a marketing director, and Hannah is a radio and tv presenter. They speak each week about the many things going on in and around Marbella and the local area, with occasional information on other parts of Spain and the UK.

This week they start with their trip to Benahavis for the annual International Theatre Studio (ITS) Lark in the Park, an event that invloves a picnic, a theatre production and musical entertainment. Most previous years both Hannah and PJ have been involved in one way or another, but this year they were pleased to sit back and enjoy the event at spectators. Listen to hear more about the event and performances.

Hannah did her weekly Pilates on Monday, as she had a lunch date with a friend on Friday, but that meant she missed doing the session alongside Coleen Rooney who was at Studio 34. Instead of Pilates Hannah was at La Sala by the Sea with a friend enjoying a lovely Thai platter. She updates us on the revamp of the beach club and the fun vibe and atmosphere.

Some of Hannah's interview highlights this week from her Talk Radio Europe show included the entrepreneur of the week, Louise Hill who was on the India trip they did with The Sisterhood last year and who founded the successful children's debit card Go Henry. She also chatted to Julie Talbot who is 'Worldschooling' her children. The other highlight was a heartwarming and heart breaking chat she had one a young lad called Jordan Adams who is one half of the FTD Brothers, who both have inherited a gene that means they have a 99.9% chance of getting the same type of dementia that has already taken a number of their family members. Listen to hear more about their charity raising in aid of the condition.

They both went to Remy this week for eggs Benedict, although Hannah had been earlier in the week too for her weekly brunch with her dad. They popped out for drinks with Aoife and Meadhbh to The Hogan Stand before heading across the road for Chinese at Nuevo Siglo. At the weekend they also went for a chat with the owners of Cilantro in San Pedro who have just opened a Lebanese restaurant section in their establishment.

They have updates on more new openings in San Pedro too!

This week’s articles from their collaborators The Euro Weekly News include the number of tourists handled by Malaga Airport this year, and information on José Carlos Garcia shunning Michelin star dining to return to his food roots.
