Bernie Ecclestone fears the burglary at his daughter Tamara’s home was an "inside job".
The 35-year-old socialite had £50million worth of jewellery stolen from her London mansion on Friday night (13.12.19) and her dad believes she could have been deliberately targeted.
The former Formula One boss the Mail Online: "I don’t have all the facts but given all the security at the house, I’m assuming it was an inside job. It’s an awful thing to happen just after she had left the house to go to Lapland. Although maybe it’s better that she wasn’t in at the time. I’ve tried to call her this morning to see what the latest is but I couldn’t get through."
Tamara’s spokesman has confirmed she was robbed, with rings, earrings and an £80,000 Cartier bangle stolen in the heist at her home in Kensington Palace Gardens.
A spokesman for Tamara said: "I can sadly confirm that there has been a home invasion. Internal security are cooperating with police in this matter. Tamara and family are well but obviously angry and shaken by the incident."
Whilst an insider added to The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: "This is the most shocking burglary because it is one of the most secure houses in London on one of the most secure streets in London. An estimated £50million worth of jewellery has been stolen from inside Tamara’s safe and Jay’s safe. Whoever did this was in the house for 50 minutes in total and had time to smash open the safes that are hidden in Tamara’s dressing room and Jay’s dressing room. Neither would be easy to find. Every single piece of jewellery that she had in her safe has gone and some of them had such personal meaning … The three raiders climbed over the back fence and went into the garden, before somehow gaining access to the house. They were disturbed by a security guard after being inside for 50 minutes and are said to have bundled out an open window. The second security guard who was working had left the house to fill up one of the family’s vehicles with petrol."
