Celebrity chef Thomas Straker has recently made a shocking revelation that his Rolex watch was stolen during an outdoor exercise session. The 33-year-old cookery star, boasting 4.5 million social media followers, expressed his dismay after discovering the theft of his precious timepiece.
According to Thomas, the stolen Rolex, a part of the Explorer collection, held significant sentimental value as it symbolized the fruits of his 12 years of hard work in the culinary industry. The timepiece, known for its price range of £4,053 – £11,296 in the private sales market, was taken while he was working out in the park.
Expressing his frustration on social media, Thomas emphasized the emotional significance of the stolen watch and condemned the act of thievery, stating, ‘The first nice thing I ever bought myself after 12 years grinding in the kitchens. Stolen from me whilst I worked out in the park. Thieving is f***ing terrible and I’m [angry face emoji].’
However, this unfortunate incident comes amidst a backdrop of personal turmoil for the celebrity chef. Reports emerged that Thomas’ wife, Davina, had allegedly ousted him from their marital home following revelations of his involvement in a romantic relationship with Princess Maria Olympia of Greece. The news of Thomas’ infidelity, disclosed in October, left Davina devastated, especially considering the impact on their two young daughters, aged four and two.
Photographs surfaced of Thomas with Princess Olympia, sparking widespread speculation about their relationship. The situation was further complicated by Olympia’s previous romantic involvement with Peregrine Pearson, which drew attention due to Pearson’s subsequent public display of affection with actress Sophie Turner.
Friends of the couple expressed deep concern for the emotional toll the situation has taken, highlighting the pain experienced not only by Princess Olympia but also by Thomas’ wife and children. The betrayal and ensuing heartbreak have undoubtedly cast a shadow over the once seemingly idyllic marriage between Thomas and Davina.
Thomas Straker, known for his culinary expertise showcased through engaging social media content, particularly his popular butter recipes, had tied the knot with actress Davina Pownall in 2015 in a picturesque church ceremony in Wiltshire.
The unfolding saga has captured public attention, shedding light on the complexities of personal relationships and the far-reaching consequences of infidelity. As Thomas navigates the aftermath of the stolen Rolex and the fallout from his alleged affair, the future remains uncertain for the renowned celebrity chef.
