A 27-year-old walker has died after falling down a cliff at Southerndown beach in South Wales with his friend.

The man was walking with a female friend, 25, who miraculously survived the fall and was taken to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff, where she is stable.

According to the BBC, emergency services were called to the scene on Saturday afternoon following reports of the pair's fall.
