Brit & her fiance were ‘poisoned by methanol-laced limoncello’ mysteriously sent to Vietnam hotel as final text revealed

A BRITISH woman and her fiance were allegedly fatally poisoned by methanol-laced limoncello mysteriously delivered to their Vietnam hotel.

Newly engaged couple Greta Marie Otteson, 33, and Arno Els Quinton, 36, are believed to have received two bottles of the “homemade” liqueur from a local restaurant on Christmas Eve.

But the couple’s bodies were tragically found in separate rooms inside the Hoi An Silverbell Villa two days later on Boxing Day – three weeks after their engagement.

Cops launched an urgent probe into their deaths with officers saying they found empty bottles inside the rooms of the villa they were managing for 10 months.

Now cops say the couple’s deaths were caused by methanol poisoning from contaminated alcohol, believed to be “homemade” limoncello purchased from a local restaurant on Christmas Eve.

Greta’s mother, Susan, had recently visited the couple in Vietnam, where they had moved in February last year.

In one of Greta and Arno’s final photos, taken December 23, the couple stood proudly next to a newly purchased moped that was “red for Wales”.

The following night, two bottles of limoncello were delivered to the hotel reception from a different restaurant.

A source close to the family told The Times: “Police forensics established the limoncello, which had been delivered, was the source.”

The next morning, Greta messaged her parents, describing “the worst hangover ever” and seeing “black spots” in her vision.

Despite these alarming symptoms, the couple decided to “sleep it off.”

A concerned local bar owner offered to take them to the hospital, but they declined.

Tragically, both were found dead hours later — Greta in her bed and Arno in a nearby room.

Methanol, a toxic industrial chemical, is often found in counterfeit or home-brewed alcohol.

Even small amounts can lead to blindness, brain damage, and death.

Greta’s devastated parents, Susan and Paul, said in a statement: “Greta and Arno were experienced worldwide travellers.

“They found their perfect home and were incredibly happy.”

Paul, originally from Swansea, shared a photo of the couple, smiling at each other during their engagement photoshoot, and described Arno as “a lovely boy…a great musician, composer, and lyricist.”

Greta and Arno had been living a dream life in Vietnam.

They had met in the Middle East while travelling before deciding to spontaneously move to the Asian country.

Social media marketing manager Greta had been living in Dubai and backpacked around Asia before meeting barista and musician Arno.

He described the move to Vietnam as “fun”, “crazy”, and “insane” in a heartwarming clip he posted on social media.

Instagram posts showed them exploring local beauty spots, rescuing a dog named Bambi, and running the Silverbell Villa, which guests praised as “beautifully kept” with “fabulous hosts.”

The luxury villa with its own pool has a 4.5-star rating and is located just 4.5 km from Hoi An Ancient Town, making it a popular tourist destination.

An Instagram post on December 3 made their engagement official and this was followed by a romantic YouTube video on December 11, two weeks before they died.

The video production company Red Eye Studios shared the video saying: “This shoot was charged with so much emotion, reminding us how powerful the union of two souls can be. We will miss you great souls.”

Greta donned a white dress and was filmed walking hand-in-hand with her husband-to-be before the pair danced and laughed on the beach.

Friends have since paid tribute to the loved-up couple following their shocking deaths.

One said: “Greta loved Arno unconditionally and was his bedrock, giving him the freedom to do what he needed to without a faltering foundation.

“There are two distinct things that are so prominent in my thoughts and that is her laugh and how much love they constantly [threw] at each other, regardless of who was around.

“They celebrated each other there and I know they will continue doing that, wherever they are.”

Arno’s friend Dayle Visser thanked his “fierce friend” saying: “You were real and lived life harder than most people could ever dream of.

“I love you and I will always miss you.”

Their deaths have raised urgent questions about alcohol safety in the region.

While no arrests have been made, the restaurant believed to have supplied the limoncello remains open, The Times reported.

The families are now calling for justice.

“Our aim is to bring the people who supplied the alcohol and killed Greta and Arno to justice,” Paul said.

The couple’s ashes have been returned to Bahrain, where Greta’s parents live, following a cremation in Vietnam.

“At some time in the future, we will have a memorial service for them both,” Paul added.

“Arno’s family expressed a wish that they should be together, which we wholeheartedly agree [with].”

In a joint statement, the families said: “Whilst the investigation is under way, procedural requirements and due diligence are being followed.

“Both families are aligned with the authorities in our shared goal of holding those responsible accountable.”

The UK Foreign Office confirmed it is supporting Greta’s family and is in contact with Vietnamese authorities.

The tragedy echoes a similar incident in Laos just five weeks earlier, when six people, including British lawyer Simone White, 28, died after drinking contaminated vodka shots at a hostel.

Linda Robson breaks silence on friend Pauline Quirke’s dementia diagnosis with emotional statement

LINDA Robson has broken her silence on her friend Pauline Quirke’s diagnosis with dementia.

Last week actress Pauline‘s husband Steve Sheen revealed she would be stepping back from her 50-year career after living with the syndrome since 2021.

Now Linda, 66 – who has known Pauline, 65 since they were 10 – has spoken out in a post on Instagram.

Sharing some snaps of them together, Linda wrote: “This will be the only time I speak on behalf of my best friend, Pauline.

“For the past three years, I’ve been in close contact with her husband, Steve, and have spent time with Pauline.

“It breaks my heart to see her endure such a terrible illness.”

Linda added: “Out of respect for her family and her privacy, I will not be discussing this matter further.”

Pauline and Linda starred together in Birds of a Feather as Sharon Theodopolopodous and Tracey Stubbs.

The sitcom ran on the BBC and then ITV across nearly 30 years.

A statement from Pauline’s husband Steve last week read: “It is with a heavy heart that I announce my wife Pauline’s decision to step back from all professional and commercial duties due to her diagnosis of Dementia in 2021.

“Pauline has been an inspiration through her work in the film and TV industry, her charity endeavours and as the founder of the very successful Pauline Quirke Academy of Performing Arts (PQA).

“Her talent, dedication, and vision have touched countless lives and will continue to do so through the legacy of her work and through PQA where her vision and guidance has facilitated many young peoples’ progression and interest in the Arts and enhanced their self-confidence.”

In 2007 Pauline launched the Pauline Quirke Academy of Performing Arts.

The academy now has 250 sites with 15,000 students across the UK.

Pauline and Linda starred in Birds of a Feather alongside Lesley Joseph.

The trio had a falling out in 2020 but their rift was healed when Pauline shared her heartbreaking diagnosis with them over lunch.

An insider said they had a “pretty acrimonious falling out in 2020”.

The source went on: “Slowly they started speaking again, and then went out for one or two lovely long lunches.

“Pauline opened up to them both after her heartbreaking diagnosis, and it was very emotional.”

Is it ageing or dementia?

Dementia – the most common form of which is Alzheimer’s – comes on slowly over time.

As the disease progresses, symptoms can become more severe. 

But at the beginning, the symptoms can be subtle or mistaken for normal memory issues related to ageing.

The US National Institute on Aging gives some examples of what is considered normal forgetfulness in old age, and dementia disease.

You can refer to these above.

For example, it is normal for an ageing person to forget which word to use from time-to-time, but difficulting having conversation would be more indicative of dementia.

Katie Puckering, Head of Alzheimer’s Research UK’s Information Services team, previously told The Sun: “We quite commonly as humans put our car keys somewhere out of the ordinary and it takes longer for us to find them.

“As you get older, it takes longer for you to recall, or you really have to think; What was I doing? Where was I? What distracted me? Was it that I had to let the dog out? And then you find the keys by the back door.

“That process of retrieving the information is just a bit slower in people as they age.

“In dementia, someone may not be able to recall that information and what they did when they came into the house.

“What may also happen is they might put it somewhere it really doesn’t belong. For example, rather than putting the milk back in the fridge, they put the kettle in the fridge.”

Charlotte Crosby puts mansion on market for £1.4million after machete raid – just days before giving birth

CHARLOTTE Crosby has put her mansion in Sunderland on the market, just days before she is due to give birth to her second child.

The home of the MTV star, which she had built in 2015 and began updating in 2020, has been put up for sale for £1.4 million after it was broken into by masked robbers in November 2024.

The break in happened while the Geordie Shore lass was upstairs with her young daughter, and while she was pregnant – and now she is keen to move on.

The five-bedroom detached home, which is beautifully decorated, is located in the Houghton le Spring area of Sunderland.

The advert for the mansion, which is now up for sale, reads: “Nestled behind private gates, this extraordinary property has been meticulously transformed with a stunning contemporary design and luxurious finishes.

“Spanning three beautifully light-filled floors, this impressive home offers spacious and well-proportioned accommodation, perfect for modern family living.

“Located in the sought-after area of Primrose Hill in Houghton-le-Spring, this magnificent residence boasts five bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool, gym area, cinema room, and a large, landscaped garden.

“The double garage and expansive parking offers substantial space for multiple cars. There is so much to explore and admire in this remarkable home.”

The Geordie Shore star was eight months pregnant and at home with her two-year-old Alba when masked thieves broke in last year.

Charlotte’s fiancé Jake Ankers said he tried to chase the four robbers, who were armed with a machete.

Writing on Instagram at the time, Jake said: “I can’t believe I’m saying this but some little c***s have tried to rob my house with my two-year-old and my partner who is nearly eight months pregnant, armed with a machete.”

BREAK-IN HELL

He said he chased the four robbers but wasn’t able to catch them.

“One of them who was in the house at the top of the stairs had a red balaclava on,” he explained.

“He is the one that had the machete. Me little girl’s in the house. Me partner’s in the house,” Jake added.

Charlotte then later broke her silence on the break in, with her sharing how she had been taken to hospital.

“As I’m typing this I’m laid in hospital. Baby is all fine thank you for all the messages,” she said on Instagram.

Charlotte Crosby and Jake Anker's relationship timeline

The pair met back in 2021 while Charlotte was getting over her break-up with ex-boyfriend Liam Beaumont.

They were introduced by mutual friends.

Charlotte and Jake then went official with their relationship in January 2022.

The following month the Geordie Shore star found out she was pregnant.

Charlotte and Jake revealed they were expecting in April 2022.

They welcomed baby Alba-Jean into the world in October that year.

In November 2023 the couple got engaged.

This comes after Charlotte announced her pregnancy with baby number two in September, telling fans online: “In my babies and business ERA.

“Delighted to announce baby Ankers number 2 is due January 2025 and also delighted to announce @peppergirlsclub AW collection is live now RIGHT NOW!!!!

“I really wanted to combine these 2 moments as everything I’ve been building with Pepper over the last few years is for my family and im so proud of it!! We are so excited to be a family of 4!”

DOCUMENTING SECOND BIRTH

This comes after Charlotte, who is just days away from giving birth to her second child, revealed that she has decided to let the cameras in to document the experience.

“I had a C-section with Alba, and it was such a good experience,” she told The Mirror.

“I like to be in control – especially after my ectopic pregnancy [in 2016].

“Waking up from that operation and being told I almost died and lost two reproductive organs was awful.

“I never want to feel out of control like that again.

“I would always only have a C-section anyway, I have absolutely no desire to push a baby out of my vagina as it is too hard,” she told the publication.

Speaking about filming her second birth, she said: “The cameras will be there for the birth, just like with Alba.

“It was actually really fun last time. We had a playlist.”

Newcastle to reward Alexander Isak with long-term contract offer and make him top earner amid Arsenal transfer links

NEWCASTLE are looking to reward Alexander Isak with a huge new contract amid interest from Arsenal, according to reports.

The 25-year-old scored his 16th and 17th Premier League goals of the season in a 3-1 win over Southampton yesterday.

Newcastle are desperate not to lose their star striker and are willing to make him the club’s highest earner.

Isak has three-and-a-half years left on his contract and talks over an improved deal were halted last year.

But The Telegraph report that discussions over an extension are set to resume at the end of the season.

Qualification for the Champions League would supposedly “sweeten the talks” and would remove a reason he could have for leaving.

They also claim the player is happy at Newcastle and he has told team-mates that he is not thinking of playing elsewhere.

Toon chiefs reportedly wanted £150million for Isak in the summer.

Arsenal have continuously been linked with Swedish international.

But The Telegraph understands that the Gunners cannot afford him at that price, nor can anyone in Europe.

JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS

Isak has the chance to show Arsenal what they are missing in the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg on February 5.

Newcastle won the first clash 2-0 and are hopeful of winning a first trophy since 1955.

I lived underwater in tiny steel pod for record 120 days with no shower  – this is what I did first when I got out

A WORLD record holder who spent 120 days underwater – without a shower – revealed the first thing he did when he came back to land.

German aerospace engineer Rudiger Koch, 59, subjected himself to four months in a 320-square-foot capsule.

Koch started his shock adventure on September 26, 2024, just off Puerto Lindo in Panama.

His underwater home – called the SeaPod Alpha Deep – resembled the inside of a soulless chamber but the engineer managed to include some essentials in his space.

Koch managed to fit a TV, computer, exercise bike, portable toilet, and fans in the tight space.

Despite living underwater in the Caribbean Sea, the engineer was able to use internet through satellites.

Solar panels and a backup generator supplied electricity into the space.

His underwater home was connected to another chamber above water through a vertical tube – which was how food would have been brought down to him during that time.

He even had his family, doctor, and journalists come into the special home to visit him.

Koch joked about this in December when he said: “The last time I checked, I was still married.”

On Friday he reached 120 days in the steel pod, setting a new world record for the longest time living underwater without depressurisation.

The first thing he did was celebrate with a bottle of champagne and a cigar before leaping into the Caribbean Sea.

During his time underwater, Koch revealed he missed having a real shower.

While underwater, he said he would be jumping in for a good wash when back on the ground.

Koch was met outside of his temporary home by Guinness World Records adjudicator Susana Reyes to confirm his astonishing achievement.

The record was previously held by American Joseph Dituri, who spent 100 days living in an underwater lodge in a Florida lagoon.

When he left the capsule, Koch said: “It was a great adventure and now it’s over there’s almost a sense of regret actually.

“I enjoyed my time here very much.”

His chamber has several circle windows that gave the record-holder a view into the sea.

He revealed the beauty of this feature in his tiny but temporary home.

He said: “It is beautiful when things calm down and it gets dark and the sea is glowing.

“It is impossible to describe, you have to experience that yourself.”

He added: “In the night, you can hear all the crustaceans.”

“There’s the fish out there, and there’s all that stuff, and that wasn’t here before we came.”
