Piers Morgan's wife Celia Walden confirms they were robbed while they slept in the French villa on last day of their holiday
August 18, 2020 - 07:00 BST Gemma Strong Piers Morgan and his wife Celia Walden were burgled while they slept on the last day of their holiday in France, she has revealed. Writing for the Telegraph, Celia disclosed that the thieves took jewellery and cash from their holiday home in Cote d'Azur. She made the upsetting discovery that the intruders had even crept into their bedroom while they slept and stole money from her handbag, which had been on a chair by their bed.
"My handbag was upside-down on the sofa, the box I keep my jewellery in lying empty beside it. And there was something else. I was the first up, but the air felt different, as though something or someone fast-moving and violent had passed through it. It felt like a room that had only recently been vacated."

Piers and Celia were in the south of France with their eight-year-old daughter Elise, and his three sons, Spencer, Stanley and Bertie. The family had intended to spend the majority of August in France, but decided to cut their holiday short to avoid the new quarantine rules.
