Television presenter and musician Myleene Klass has spoken out about the terrifying moment she discovered her family home had been burgled while her children slept peacefully upstairs.
The former Hear'Say star revealed the traumatic incident occurred recently, with thieves ransacking her property and making off with valuable items. What makes the crime particularly chilling is that Klass's young children were home and completely unaware of the intruders moving through their house.
'My Sanctuary Was Violated'
Klass described the profound emotional impact of the burglary, explaining how her sense of security has been completely shattered. "Your home is supposed to be your sanctuary," she shared, "and to have that violated in such a manner is deeply disturbing."
The mother-of-three emphasised that material possessions could be replaced, but the psychological trauma of knowing strangers had invaded their private space while her family slept was what truly haunted her.
Calling for Better Support for Victims
The celebrity has used her platform to highlight what she perceives as inadequate support for burglary victims from authorities. She expressed frustration with the police response and the lack of ongoing communication about the investigation.
"When something this violating happens, victims need proper support and updates," Klass stated. "The emotional aftermath is something that stays with you long after the crime scene has been cleared."
Security Measures Reinforced
Since the break-in, Klass has significantly upgraded her home security system. She's invested in additional cameras, alarms, and other protective measures to ensure her family feels safe again.
"I never thought something like this would happen to us," she admitted. "Now I'm hyper-aware of every noise and constantly checking that everything is secure. That peace of mind you take for granted is gone."
Klass joins a growing number of celebrities who have spoken out about home invasions, using their public profiles to raise awareness about domestic security and the lasting impact such crimes have on victims.
