A luxury cruise ship blessed by a supermodel has arrived in Dorset.

The Seven Seas Splendor sailed into Portland Port at noon today. The ship was blessed by supermodel Christie Brinkley.

It is on an 11-day round trip of the United Kingdom, which both started and will end in Southampton.

This is its last stop before it arrives back in Southampton tomorrow. It will depart at 10pm today.

Seven Seas Splendor is a smaller ship, accommodating just 829 passengers.

She was christened by one of the world's most recognised supermodels Christie Brinkley in 2020, who praised the details on the ship as 'amazing, from the artistic style of the Italian marble, the artwork and chandeliers, to the sculpture of the mythical dragon outside Pacific Rim.'

The ship features more than 46,000 square feet of Italian marble and a $5 million curated fine art collection that is said to be the most discerningly curated collection of museum-quality 20th- and 21st-century art on the seas.

Her 375 suites include nearly 52,000 square feet of balcony space – among the largest cruise ship balconies in the world. The beautifully appointed suites range from the 307-square-foot Veranda Suite to the lavish 4,443-square-foot Regent Suite.
