Countess’ grief as priceless ring vanishes from Paris hotel safe

by

She enjoys a lifestyle most people can only dream of, owning a £5 million home in London, holding an aristocratic title, and having the financial freedom to travel whenever and wherever she pleases.

Countess Zofia Krasicki von Siecin, age 31, recently returned from Paris very upset to learn that a valuable family heirloom is missing.

When Zofia, the creator of the TV series Couturist – a show that explores the fascinating world of high fashion – first came to Paris, none of her current success seemed possible.

I was so excited to hear she checked into Le Royal Monceau in Paris with her stylist, Nolan Meader! It’s a truly incredible hotel – a real Parisian landmark, actually. It’s been around for almost a hundred years and has hosted some amazing people, like Winston Churchill and Ernest Hemingway. Even Lady Gaga loves it! And honestly, with rooms costing around £1,000 a night, you’d expect it to be luxurious!

Zofia was unknowingly becoming part of a real-life crime story. A friend shared that she had brought a valuable emerald ring, a family heirloom, with her and immediately placed it in her hotel safe.

A couple of nights later, Zofia made up her mind to put on the ring. She realized it was gone. The safe hadn’t been forced open – it was still locked – but the ring was nowhere to be found.

Le Royal Monceau wouldn’t comment, but I understand that both the hotel’s security team and the police investigated and found the safe was functioning normally.

Zofia isn’t responding to my messages. Her family has dealt with difficult situations before, like when her mother, Primrose Dunlop, was left at the altar. Her fiancé, a Qantas flight attendant who claimed to be a Turkish prince, ran off with his best man’s wife. Primrose eventually moved on and married a genuine Polish nobleman, Count Jerzy Krasicki von Siecin.

Zofia’s friends are hoping she can find the strength to cope with the loss. She lost her mother last year – Primrose was only 70 – and the family is devastated. While the ring had a high monetary value, it was the sentimental meaning that truly mattered, as both Zofia’s grandmother and mother had worn it before her.

The cause of its disappearance remains a mystery.

 

Mamma Mia! Star hires private jets – for her dog

Actress Amanda Seyfried loves her dog so much, she reportedly hired private jets to fly it to Hungary, where she was filming a movie. It seems this pup lives a very luxurious life!

Amanda Seyfried, known for her role in Mamma Mia!, spent around £100,000 on private jet travel during the six-week filming of ‘The Testament of’. She flew privately from New York to Budapest, then to Sweden, and back home.

Ann Lee admits spending a lot of money on a private jet for her dog, Finn, a 16-year-old Australian shepherd. While she acknowledges it wasn’t a smart financial decision, she says it was necessary for Finn’s well-being and for her own peace of mind, as she needed him with her.

She also had to bring 80 pounds of the dog’s special frozen food to prevent an upset stomach. She explained, ‘It’s important not to change his diet now.’

It’s really challenging to travel with a dog, particularly internationally, and I wasn’t able to get all the necessary documents.

 

Why Hammond’s girl put foot down on Love Island 

Although her father is famous from shows like Top Gear and The Grand Tour, Isabella Hammond didn’t want to become just another attractive contestant on the reality show Love Island.

Richard Hammond’s daughter, Izzy, has shared that she turned down a chance to appear on the reality dating show Love Island. Speaking at the Autosport Awards in London, she explained that she was approached a couple of years ago but quickly decided it wasn’t for her.

Lucy’s Bohemian birthday treat…

Okay, so Lucy Boynton? Total queen. And get this – for her 32nd birthday, she literally just left the party! No goodbyes, nothing! It’s called a ‘French exit,’ and honestly? It’s the most Lucy Boynton thing ever. I’m obsessed with the idea, it’s so chic and mysterious. She just…vanished! I need to adopt this into my own life immediately.

The actress celebrated in London wearing a special top created by Bill Milner, a fellow actor from the Netflix horror film Apostle. The top featured the phrase ‘I kiss French Exit’.

Lucy ended her five-year relationship with actor Rami Malek in 2023. She is now dating Scottish musician Murdo Mitchell, who is 28 years old.

It wasn’t certain if Murdo attended, but Lucy was delighted her older sister, author Emma Louise, came to the party. Emma Louise brought a stunning red cake from Lily Vanilli, a famous bakery known for its high-profile clients like Kate Moss, Madonna, and Elton John.

The Time Team presenter observes that she’s quite wasteful and talks rapidly, but she connects with viewers in a way that’s very different from most actors you’d see on stage at the National Theatre.

The appointment had been rescheduled because of a technical issue, but she decided to go to church regardless. While waiting for the service to begin, she was overcome with a strong, unsettling feeling – she felt incredibly vulnerable and shaky.

‘Not in an unpleasant way, but completely weak, vulnerable, and receptive.’

Okay, so I was just reading that she’s made almost £17 million from her company! Seventeen million! I knew she was a star, but that’s insane! It’s amazing to think about everything she’s accomplished at just 33. I’m so proud of her, seriously!
