Cheryl Tweedy’s jailed stalker’s creepy obsession with other famous women revealed

Cheryl Tweedy’s killer, who was jailed for her stalking, appears to have an obsession with other female stars.

Daniel Bannister, 50, repeatedly showed up at Cheryl’s home after she was “exhibiting fixated, obsessive, unwanted, and repetitive behavior” toward him. Prior to being found guilty of killing a man in a homeless hostel, Bannister’s actions “serious alarm” caused Cheryl.

He has since broken a restraining order and was imprisoned in Wycombe Magistrates’ Court for 16 weeks. The 50-year-old man was previously imprisoned for four months in September for a crime he committed in July. Additionally, he was prohibited from calling Cheryl, visiting Buckinghamshire, or even going to her home, as well as a three-year restraining order.

However, after his father’s funeral in December, court records revealed that he had left the house she shares with her young son, Bear. After entering Buckinghamshire on December 10, he was accused of breaking his restraining order.

According to Bannister’s social media profiles, he follows other well-known women, including Kirsty Gallacher, Rachel Riley, and Emily Maitlis. The stalker has friends with a number of accounts that look like they’re female stars on Facebook. There are accounts of Susanna Reid, Mila Kunis, Mary Kate Olson, Meghan Markle, and Sophie Raworth among his 86 friends. He also follows Renee Zellweger’s and Zoe Kravitz’s Instagram accounts.

Bannister, who had been held indefinitely, was sentenced today. Prior to that, he had previously been prohibited from reaching out to Cheryl, either directly or indirectly. He was jailed until his hearing today after entering a guilty plea to three separate offenses in December. Cheryl’s entourage was said to be on “red alert” as her West End performance of 2: 22 A Ghost Story approached her with disturbing messages accompanied by flowers from outside the theater.

He allegedly arrived at “an address where you knew or believed Cheryl Tweedy was present” last year, which constituted yet another default in his terms. Brinster was charged with harassment–broken restraining orders upon conviction, harassment–broken restraining orders upon conviction, and attempt-broken restraining orders after conviction.

When he rang the video intercom outside the Buckinghamshire home she shared with her seven-year-old son, Bear, he was already subject to a restraining order. He claimed he had “come to get Cheryl” when he claimed to have arrived at the property and used the intercom in January 2024. He called in to the house again in July of the same year and said, “I just want a glass of wine, please.” When she spotted Bannister again outside her home last year, Tweedy told police she “immediately panicked.”

After assaulting Rajendra Patel at a south London YMCA homeless shelter, Bannister entered a manslaughter plea in 2012 at Kingston Crown Court. Mr. Patel went back to the hospital on March 9 after an attack in February of the same year. He tragically passed away shortly after. His death was ruled to have involved a left ankle fracture, pulmonary embolism, and deep vein thrombosis of the left thermeral vein.

Bannister, 37, was scheduled to appear in court for the murder of Mr. Patel, but the CPS reduced the charge to manslaughter. The two people who were staying at the homeless shelter allegedly had a long history of animosity toward one another when the attack occurred. As he attempted to get a lift, Bannister kicked and punched his victim, according to CCTV footage.
