Tamara Ecclestone's £25m Burglary Insurance Blunder Revealed

Tamara Ecclestone and her husband, Jay Rutland, lost £25 million in valuables during a 2019 burglary at their Kensington mansion but were unable to recover the losses due to an overlooked insurance policy exemption for watches and gems. The family was only able to claim a small amount for damaged doors, as every room had been forcibly entered. Rutland has publicly accepted responsibility for not noticing the policy's limitations, which left their valuable jewellery and watches uninsured. The burglary was part of a spree targeting several high-profile homes, including those of Frank Lampard and the late Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha. Three Italian men involved in the raids were subsequently jailed, but most of the stolen items remain unrecovered. The high-profile case has led the family to increase security and prompted public discussion about the importance of carefully reviewing insurance coverage.
