Karren Brady left feeling ‘unsafe’ at £6m mansion after four break-ins in one day

‘Repeated targeting of my property has changed the way I live my life,’ businesswoman said

Karren Brady has shared her horror after a burglar broke into her £6m Belgravia mansion four times in 16 hours.

The businesswoman and star of The Apprentice said has struggled to sleep since the series of “targeted” break-ins at the house, which have had a “profound impact” on her family.

Brady, her former footballer husband Paul Peschisolido, and their two children were left feeling paranoid about any sudden noises after the break-ins by Gregory Adane.

The former chef, 41, broke into a basement storage area multiple times at the five-bedroom terraced house, complete with a fully-stocked bar and marble fireplace, on May 16 last year.

Adane took cycling tops, a £1,700 Prada bad and Amazon parcels worth a total of £2,572 after entering the property four times while Brady was out working.

On Thursday (20 March), he walked free from London’s Southwark crown court with an 18-month suspected sentence after pleading guilty to two counts of burglary and theft.

In an impact statement, Brady asked the court to take into account the “full extent of harm” and “psychological toll” Adane’s crimes had on her.

The Apprentice star said she felt “targeted, watched, and exploited” following the series of breaks-ins at her Belgravia home – a highly wealthy area that has also been home to Sean Connery, Joan Collins and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

She wrote: “Knowing that a stranger invaded my personal space, went through my belongings and had total disregard for my privacy has left me feeling vulnerable and unsettled.

“Before this crime, I felt safe in my home. That feeling has now been shattered.

“The fact that someone trespassed on to my property, not once but four times, has made me feel as though I was being targeted, watched and exploited.

“The fact that the burglar came back multiple times shows a blatant disregard for the law and a complete lack of respect for my property and personal security.”

Brady continued: “His repeated targeting of my property has changed the way I live my life. What used to feel like a safe and secure space now feels vulnerable. I am not comfortable being at home when I am on my own, as I wake up at the slightest noise.

“I have stepped up my security. I put the alarm on during the day, double-lock the doors and had security lights fitted at considerable cost to me … I no longer feel comfortable leaving my home for extended ­periods.”

Judge David Tomlinson offered Adnane a “last chance” but said any breaches of his order will “undoubtedly” result in prison, per MailOnline.

Months before the break-ins, Brady shared in February last year that she’d had the kitchen in her property remodelled in a sleek minimalist design.

“My talented designer turned my ideas into reality and helped me create the perfect kitchen,” she said, alongside footage of gold taps and marble counters.
