Mrs. Hinch became emotional while sharing that she’s deeply upset for her mother, after thieves broke into her home and stole jewelry that belonged to her late father, Alan.

Sophie Hinchliffe, the 35-year-old cleaning personality known online, shared that her mother’s house in Maldon, Essex, was recently broken into. She used her Instagram account to publicly condemn the people responsible, calling them ‘cowardly’.

Sophie got emotional on Friday evening while discussing how the burglary affected her mother.

In a video on Instagram, she shared how upset she was for her mother. She explained that while having jewelry stolen is bad enough, the loss of items with such sentimental value – like her engagement, wedding, and eternity rings, especially those from her father – was particularly painful.

As my mom said, we shouldn’t let any recent difficulties overshadow the good things that happened this month. January brought some wonderful moments, and we’re going to remember them fondly.

I’m amazed by how many people shared the jewelry post – it really helped get it seen! I’m so thankful to everyone who helped spread the word.

It doesn’t look like it’s going to return, and honestly, I’m losing hope that it ever will. While I don’t want to give up completely, I’m not optimistic about its return.

This follows Sophie’s statement that her mother feels like things have regressed and has been deeply upset by everything that’s happened.

She told The Sun that her mother is understandably upset, as they all are, but is handling the situation with incredible strength.

The jewelry is really special to her, especially because it reminds her of my dad, and that’s what’s making this so difficult.

‘More than anything, I just want to be able to get the jewellery back for my mum.’

Sophie also mentioned she’s invited her mother to live with her for a while.

Sophie’s mother cherishes her independence and prefers to stay in her own home, and Sophie respects that. Therefore, the family is letting her take the lead in making any decisions.

During the interview, Sophie also mentioned if there were any new clues regarding the burglary.

She said the police know about the situation and are actively helping in any way they can. They’re also monitoring the area and reviewing security camera footage.

On Tuesday, Sophie used her Instagram account to publicly accuse people of stealing jewelry that held sentimental value for her grieving mother, and she begged them to return it.

I’m shocked to be writing this, but I’m addressing the people who broke into my parents’ house in Maldon today, January 27th, sometime between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.

You invaded a woman’s home while she was mourning and stole her jewelry – pieces that belonged to her late father. These weren’t just valuables; they were deeply personal and irreplaceable, and you had absolutely no right to take them.

Just to be absolutely clear, this isn’t something I’m willing to let go. That jewelry might not seem valuable to you, but it means the world to my mother. She’s already grieving the loss of my father and trying to rebuild her life, and you broke into her home and stole one of her last remaining connections to him.

You deliberately took something that wasn’t yours, and it’s far more than just stealing. It’s a mean, awful, and spineless act.

Daily Mail has contacted Essex Police for comment.
