Last year, writing in New magazine in the wake of Declan Donnelly being targeted by burglars, Peter recalled a similar incident that happened when he was in Australia.
He explained: ‘Our home was broken into three times in one night by the same people while we were asleep.
‘They took jewellery and it was horrifying. You want to feel safe in your own home.
‘Knowing someone has been in it, with an intent to take your things, and the fear of them possibly wanting to do worse, is horrible.’
Court-bound? Last week, it was reported that Peter cannot recall an alleged one-night stand with Rebekah Vardy and is talking to lawyers about how to stop her claim being repeated – along with her jibe that he is ‘hung like a chipolata’
Last week, it was reported that Peter cannot recall an alleged one-night stand with Rebekah Vardy and is talking to lawyers about how to stop her claim being repeated – along with her jibe that he is ‘hung like a chipolata’.
During the Wagatha Christie libel trial in the High Court this month, Rebekah was asked about her kiss-and-tell interview in which she claimed she had a tryst with the former pop star in 2001.
Peter is upset that the claims, made in the News Of The World in 2004, have resurfaced and that he was given no warning they would be detailed in Mrs Vardy’s court battle with fellow Wag Coleen Rooney.
Sources say the father-of-four has consulted lawyers because he has no memory of a night of passion with Rebekah, 40, at a Buckinghamshire hotel.
‘Pete doesn’t remember meeting her, never mind anything else,’ said one insider. ‘At the time of the article he was younger, he didn’t have children and it didn’t matter so much.
Comments: Rebekah told London’s High Court that she regretted comparing Peter’s private member to a ‘chipolata’ in a kiss-and-tell newspaper interview in 2004
