A-LISTERS don’t have holidays like the rest of us, with many heading to private islands and huge mansion estates for some relaxation.

If you’re willing to spend the cash, however, you can rent a number of celebrity houses across the globe.

Ranging from California homes to Barbados estates, celebs including Rihanna and Leonardo DiCaprio have opened up some of their private properties for rentals.

Other celebs such as Wayne Rooney have destinations that they often holiday at, which you can as well.

You’ll have to splash the cash, with the cheapest starting at £6,000 per week and going up to a whopping £25,000 a week.

Here are some of the best you can rent with your family and friends:

Wayne Rooney’s Barbados estate – £25,000 a week

The £5m estate was built in 2010, and is visited by the Rooney’s at least once a year.

However, you can rent it for yourself, with five bedrooms as well as a two-bedroom cottage.

Located in Barbados, guests should make the most of the huge golf course with a free round and buggy included per day.

There is also a huge dining area and private swimming pool when entertaining.

Rihanna’s Hollywood house – £6,250 a week

Located in Hollywood is Rihanna’s huge estate , which the singer bought four years ago, although now lives in London.

Inside are six bedrooms, as well as a games room and movie room.

Outside is an infinity pool and on-site spa for a week of relaxation.

It is rented out for more than £6k a week – or you can buy it for £5.4m.

Sting’s Italian resort – £6,000 per week

Sting’s Italian resort is mainly use for wedding but is also available for holidaymakers as well.

The resort has nine bedrooms in the main villa and five guest houses across the vineyards and olive groves.

The 16th century estate, Il Palagio, is still a working farm which creates its own wines and live oils.

If you want the whole place, you will have to stump up £36,000 for a week, but a villa is less at £6,000.

Leonardo DiCaprio’s California home – £22,600 a week

Bought by Leonardo DiCaprio in 2014, the Palm Springs estate was built in 1964 for a previous girlfriend of Burt Reynolds.

Inside the 60s style house are six bedrooms and sunken living room, along with huge pirano and cocktail bar.

Outside there are views of the surrounding mountains as well as a swimming pool and tennis court.

While the actor lives primarily in LA, guests at the house also get a daily maid service.

Mick Jagger’s Caribbean resort – £21,500 a week

Mick Jagger’s Mustique home may be in the Caribbean, but has been designed like a Japanese resort.

Inside are seven pavilions connected by walkways over running water, with six bedrooms on-site.

You’ll be joined by a butler and chef, with full use of a car to get around the island.

Surrounded by shrubbery, there is also a beach facing sundeck and a freshwater swimming pool.

Richard Branson’s Caribbean island – £19,000 a week

Richard Branson’s Necker Island is famous with many celebs also wanting to stay there, including Barack Obama.

A villa for the week is around £19,000 but if you want the whole island, it will cost you a whopping £75,000 a week.

The island, part of the British Virgin Islands chain in the Caribbean Sea, was uninhabited until Mr Branson turned it into a luxury resort.

Now, the resort includes a ten-bed villa overlooking the beach as well as other luxury residences, private pools, tennis courts and a helipad.

Gogglebox stars Dom and Steph Parker have put their posh manor house hotel on the market for £5 million.

The couple snapped up the stunning huge Grade I-listed boutique hotel – where they filmed for the Channel 4 show – for £2.6 million in 2004.

They then spent a further £2.5 million renovating The Salutation – but are now selling the property, with Dom saying they are “too old” to run it themselves.

The Parkers last year admitted that the company running the manor house would be liquidated and guests’ deposits would be lost.

The hotel was subsequently shut – leaving 33 workers jobless in January ahead of the pandemic.

Speaking ahead of putting the house on the market, Dom last year said: “We’re looking for £5 million for the purchase price. We ideally want to sell the building.

“It has been our lives, our home, our joy – our stage for Gogglebox.”

He added: “It is a very important part of the past 14 years of our lives, and it is such a beautiful building. But we are just too old and exhausted, and don’t have the energy to run it any more.”

The Salutation, in Sandwich, Kent, was built in 1912, is spread over 3.7 acres and boasts 17 bedrooms – along with a 60-cover restaurant which has been doing fine dining.

It was designed and built by Sir Edward Lutyens in a Queen Anne style.

Its Salutation Gardens won Gold at last year’s Chelsea Flower Show, and are recognised as some of the best in the country with RHS Partner Garden status.

Dom and Steph – who featured in Channel 4’s Gogglebox from 2013 to 2016 – spent five years restoring the building and its gardens after buying it.

Dom said last year: “It is crying out for someone to get on board and love it as we have.

“We have personally invested millions into the gardens, and to achieve Gold at Chelsea last year was incredible.”

Dom admits the gardens at the house are one of the key summertime attractions and have been restored by staff.

“The staff have absolutely worked tirelessly on restoring the gardens, but it will be lost if they are neglected. It would be a crying shame to see that go to pot,” he said.

“It’s a fabulous building. All somebody needs to do is turn up and turn it on – it’s all sitting ready to go.”

An old Star Wars comic may offer some clues to Grogu’s past. Better known as Baby Yoda, the character debuted in The Mandalorian and has since become a true fan-favorite within the franchise. But much remains mysterious about the beloved little alien. Where, exactly, did he come from? What is the name of his species? Many answers are sure to come but the comic book in question may offer at least some hint as to what happened to the Child before he and Mando crossed paths.

The issue in question is Star Wars Tales #13, which was written by Fabian Nicieza, Jim Krueger and W. Haden Blackman. The series was published by Dark Horse Comics around the time the prequels were being released. They are no longer canon as Disney opted to throw everything out and start from scratch after purchasing Lucasfilm in 2012. But these tales, now dubbed Legends, have often been used to inspire the official canon. So they can be a helpful guide.

Star Wars Tales #13 centers on Mace Windu. It features a collection of short tales involving the Jedi. The final tale in the book is titled Children of the Force . This is of particular interest to those who are curious about Grogu’s mysterious origins. It sees Mace taking his padawan, Depa Billaba, to a Jedi nursery. Depa is conflicted about the fact that these children were taken from their homes to be trained in the ways of the Force. A bounty hunter by the name of Vianna D’Pow enters the fold, attempting to steal these babies from the nursery. It turns out she was hired by parents of the children in the nursery. These parents regretted allowing their children to be taken by the Jedi.

Amid the chaos as Mace is dealing with Vianna, we see a shot of the Jedi nursery. In the bottom, right-hand corner of the panel, we can see a familiar-looking, green baby alien in a crib. It is, indeed, a baby hailing from the same species as Yoda. While this isn’t Baby Grogu , seeing as the character didn’t exist when the comic book was written. But it could be a window into where the Baby Yoda we’ve come to know in The Mandalorian came from. Perhaps the Jedi Order took him in as a child and placed him in one of these nurseries. We know that Grogu is 50 in the timeline of the show, as Yoda’s species ages differently than many others. So the timeline could easily work out.

With The Mandalorian season 3 set to enter production later this year, not to mention all of the other Star Wars shows in the works for Disney+ , we are sure to learn much more about Grogu in the future. Especially given everything that took place in the season 2 finale. It seems inevitable that the character’s past will be explored. Will executive producers Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni decide to take some inspiration from this particular story? Time will tell. This was previously reported by Inverse .
