While out in central London, a third Strictly Come Dancing star had their phone taken. They revealed in a post shared online that their phone had traveled the world.
Another Strictly Come Dancing star was robbed in London after their phone was revealed. Michelle Tsiakkas and Annabel Croft both gave Instagram followers warnings about their stolen phones earlier this month.
Michelle, 29, told fans having her phone stolen was ‘traumatising’ and said she felt ‘awful, scared and helpless’ when it happened. She explained that she was simply going about her day when a criminal whizzed past her on an electric bike and snatched her phone straight from her hand.
The actress claimed that she was driving around Covent Garden in the early morning hours while visiting the dentist. Additionally, Annabel Croft recently recalled the harrowing incident in which she was mugged in broad daylight in London.

The brave star has since spoken out to make sure others don’t experience the same fate because she was the victim of a crime. When the incident happened, Annabel, who also competed in the 2023 series with Johannes Radebe, said she was waiting for a taxi.
Annabel described the incident in detail and thanked those who came to her aid in an Instagram post. People who are alone in London were just warned, “I just wanted to let you know.” She wrote, “Just got mugged waiting for a taxi outside King’s Cross St. Pancras.”
The man was wearing a black balaclava while riding a bike. He slammed straight at me and removed my phone. I got it back after he rode away with it, but luckily he dropped it. “Terrifying” added Anne. There are some lovely people out there, she continued. A lovely gentleman fortunately witnessed it and intervened to assist me. Who you are, I say thank you.
The new Strictly curse didn’t stop with Annabel as Seann Walsh recently revealed his phone was stolen in a post shared on his Instagram Stories.
He added that his phone was stolen (yes, out of my hand, and yes, I live in Lond) about a week ago, and that it is now in China if anyone happens to pass by. This is in addition to a screenshot from the Find My app, which shows his phone in Guangdong, China.
The comedian responded to the comedian’s request to write a book called “It could only happen to me,” saying, “If there are any publishers following me, I’m open to this, but it will be a very long book. It’s referred to as “Typical.”
Unaccustomed Londoners have been misled by the alarming rise in mobile phone theft. In the city over the past four years, 231, 000 phone thefts and robberies have been reported according to new statistics released this month.
St James’s Park, where Piccadilly and Haymarket meet Pall Mall and Clarence House, as well as some of the West End, were identified as hotspots in London thanks to an analysis by The Times.
According to figures released by Scotland Yard, robberies increased by 20% year over year, with 81,256 mobile phone crimes recorded in 2023. Additionally, according to the statistics, roughly 37 people are stealing their phones from the streets of the capital each day.
