Liz Hurley recalls 'real horror' of being robbed at a motorway service station

Liz Hurley has relived the moment she realised she'd been robbed.

Actress Liz, 54, told that crooks had seen their chance when she pulled into a motorway service station.

The incident, which took place last year and saw the thugs make off with her travelling hand luggage, left Liz shaken.

"Something really terrible happened last year," she remembered, "It's a real horror and I was burnt very badly by it.

"I parked my car at one of those big stations, the food court things, and went inside.

"Came back, drove home - someone had opened my car and taken my hand luggage."

Chatting to Susannah Constantine on her podcast, Vanessa reckons she knows how they pulled it off.

She continued: "It's a horror, it's a real horror.

"Unfortunately people have transmitters and when you come out of your car and you click it shut they can pick up the signal of your transmitter and drive off with them.

"Or they can open your car and take anything out. When we started Googling it there were only three cars that they couldn't transmit from..."

Liz added that she keeps a lot of valuables in her hand luggage, including her laptop, charger and make-up bag.

The brunette beauty is currently isolating in her lavish £6 million Herefordshire pad with son Damian, 18, and mum Angela, 80, as well as various other family members.

"I feel incredibly lucky to live in the countryside and have lots of outside space," she told on Instagram.

She told the Mirror: "I live near Wales now. My sister Kate lives there and my mother has moved in with me.

"I don't have my friends around, but I am more organised now than I've ever been."

The Georgian mansion boasts 13 bedrooms and its own lake.
