Was TikToker Blake Rosier really the only passenger on a cruise ship?
A TikToker has been celebrated for “living an introvert's dream” after he boasted about being the only passenger on a cruise ship. Major liners can hold between 2,000 and 4,000 guests, and yet Blake Rosier claimed that he’d managed to find himself totally alone on one – apart from a whole army of staff. In a video posted on Tuesday, Blake can be seen standing in a pool and showing off the empty deck around him. Addressing his audience, he announces: “As some of you know, I'm on this cruise ship completely alone. I am the only guest on this ship besides the crew, of course, that's been tending to me hand and foot, literally. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter “This cruise has been insane,” he continues. “I don't know how this happened exactly. They even have a movie playing for just me. “All the shows are still going, the pools are open. Literally just me here – it’s truly insane and it's been amazing. “I just had dinner in a huge dining hall with no one else. I'll keep you guys updated.” @blakerosier24620 I was the only guest on a cruise ship He has failed to post any updates since that original post, nor has he provided any information on which operator he’s supposedly travelling with. Still, that hasn’t dampened people’s enthusiasm for his outlandish claims, with the clip racking up more than 490,500 views and 31,000 likes in a day, as commentators shared their takes on the unusual scenario. “That’s the only appealing cruise I’ve ever seen,” one joked. “Not sure if that’s a dream or nightmare,” added another. Indeed, whilst one fellow TikToker described it as an “introvert’s dream” another argued: “This is my introvert’s nightmare – the entire crew tending to you JUST YOU???” Others poured cold water on Blake’s brag, with a number suggesting he had just filmed the video late at night when everyone else was asleep. Others suggested he was a member of staff himself, and that he’d recorded himself once the journey was over and everyone else had gone home. In fact, it’s not the first time the content creator has claimed to be alone on a ship. Last year, he uploaded a video titled ‘Only guest on a cruise ship in the dining hall’. He began the 26-second clip, by saying happily to the camera: “Look at all these people that know me,” before filming staff greeting him as he strolled around the food area. Only guest on a cruise ship in the dining hall www.youtube.com There are a few other clues that Blake’s solo trip claims are all just a big joke. The YouTuber is known for his comic, spoof videos and not for being the kind of travel influencer who might be able to bag himself an exclusive spot on a cruise. Also, whilst he doesn’t divulge any info about his journey in the most recent cruise clip, his video location is tagged as "New York". Still, we all enjoyed the ride while it lasted.

Lazy lunch: 30-minute tomato, onion and herb tart
A sheet of ready-rolled puff pastry makes this a really simple lunch, and although cooking the onions needs your attention, everything else is incredibly low effort,” says Sanjay Aggarwal, author of Spice Kitchen. “Make sure you cook the pastry until it’s a deep, burnished golden-brown; too pallid and it will still be soft and floppy underneath.” Quick tomato, onion and herb tart Serves: 4 Ingredients: 1 tbsp vegetable, sunflower or rapeseed oil 3 red onions, sliced into half moons 1 tsp caster sugar Pinch of salt 1 tbsp Italian seasoning 2 tsp balsamic vinegar 1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry 500g cherry tomatoes 150g pitted black olives 1 egg (skip the egg wash if you’re vegan, or use a splash of oat milk instead) Handful of chopped fresh parsley Zest of 1 unwaxed lemon Method: 1. Warm the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the onions over a moderate heat, stirring frequently so that they soften but don’t stick. After five minutes, add the sugar and salt. 2. After another five minutes, add the Italian seasoning and the vinegar and cook for a final five minutes. Set aside to cool. 3. Preheat the oven to 190C fan/210C/410F/gas mark 6½. 4. Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a lined baking tray and create a border by using a knife to score a line a little way in from the edge (don’t slice all the way through the pastry). 5. Spread the onions over the pastry inside the border, then top with the tomatoes and olives. Beat the egg and paint it over the border. Transfer the tart to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until risen and a rich golden-brown around the edges. 6. Top with the parsley and lemon zest and serve while warm. Recipe from ‘Spice Kitchen’ by Sanjay Aggarwal (Quadrille, £22).
