Zoe Ball's Car Broken Into Outside The One Show

BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball was left in tears after her car window was smashed and her bag stolen while she appeared on The One Show. She admitted to feeling 'frozen' and blamed herself for leaving her bag visible on the front seat. Ball resourcefully used a festival poncho to cover the broken window and drove the noisy 64-mile journey home to Brighton, finding comfort in listening to the radio. She shared that nothing of significant value was taken, except her diary, and described the emotional release of crying as helpful. Ball has since advised others not to leave valuables visible and reflected on the emotional impact of the crime. Her co-host Jo Whiley also shared a similar personal experience, highlighting the prevalence of such incidents.
