'I am in shock'

The robbery took place while she was loading luggage into the back of an Uber taxi. According to Bedford:

My Uber driver got out of the car and was like ‘what the hell, your bag has gone’. It had everything in, bags, shoes, sunglasses. They have literally taken so much. So I got the police lady and she was like ‘how long were you stood waiting for your Uber for’ and I said ten minutes and she said they would have been watching me, waiting for you to get in.

Before adding:

They have taken so much but it could have been much worse. I was shocked at first. I rang my mum because I was so shaken. It’s just scary. I am just glad I am safe. I am in shock.

Love Island robberies

As shocking and saddening as these events can be, they are unfortunately not uncommon for former Islanders. Last year, Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury lost a whopping £800K after their plush penthouse was broken into while the couple were away.

Most recently, Faye Winter and Teddy Soares were also victims of burglary. This has led both couples to up their security with 24 hour body guards surveilling their residence as well as installing CCTV.
