According to loved ones, he had last seen near a McDonald’s in the resort of Las Americas, in the south of the island.

Missing Persons Tenerife, who was in touch with the family, told the Olive Press that Kris was on a one-week holiday that he had booked last minute.

A spokesperson said: “It has been reported to the UK police and also the Foreign Office.”

However in an update on Monday the organisation said Kris had since been found.

It wrote: “Kris Finney has been located. He is absolutely fine, many thanks for helping.”
