Myleene Klass made a bold statement with a completely red outfit when she went back to work at Smooth Radio on Thursday. This followed her recent court appearance where she shared the details of the stalking she experienced.
The presenter, age 47, stated in court that Peter Windsor, 61, supposedly sent her an air pistol and letters over a nine-month period of harassment. She claims this constituted a campaign of harassment.
When Myleene arrived at Global Studios in London, she was wearing red satin shorts with delicate lace detailing, paired with a comfortably oversized jumper of the same color.
I always say, a pop of color can really elevate your look! Today, I paired a gorgeous outfit with some matching red lace tights and classic black heels as I headed in to host my Smooth afternoon show. It’s all about feeling confident and comfortable, and a little red definitely does the trick!
It was incredibly difficult to sit in court and listen to Myleene recount her experience. She shared how this man, Peter Windsor, who was suffering from schizophrenia, actually sent her what turned out to be a ‘gun’ – thankfully, Royal Mail intercepted it before it reached her. It was a truly frightening ordeal, and you could see the emotional toll it took on her as she recalled it.
Myleene, who has three children, became emotional several times while giving testimony. She explained how a police officer contacted her while she was driving her children to school to inform her about the weapon – it turned out to be an air pistol.
She told the jury at Birmingham Crown Court, ‘He stated that while a license wasn’t required for this gun, it could be deadly at close range – up to six feet.’ She added, ‘I believe anyone receiving a gun would be frightened.’
I was absolutely floored – it hit me with such force and suddenly felt incredibly real. It made me think about how often, as women, we second-guess ourselves, constantly wondering if we’ve misinterpreted things or if our feelings are valid. But in this instance, there was absolutely no room for doubt. It wasn’t a situation open to interpretation; it was stark and clear. There was a gun, in a box, and it had my name on it.
Windsor is also alleged to have sent used shoes, jewelry, and a Catwoman and police officer fancy dress costumes, along with an air pistol, to the London studios of Global radio.
He claims he did not stalk Myleene over a nine-month period, from November 2023 to August 2024. He also denies stalking her Classic FM colleague, Katie Breathwick, 53, who allegedly received 80 to 100 items between March 2020 and December 2023.
Letters and parcels sent to Myleene and Katie have been shown to the jury.
One note details his claim of completing ‘5,000 pull ups in 19 hours’. Another describes the women as having ‘alien’ eyes and expresses his desire to canoe on a lake near Buckingham Palace with them.
He additionally gifted each of the two women a bottle of Champagne. Wilson gave Katie perfume and a stamp collection as a present for her son. On occasion, he styled himself as ‘Sir Peter Windsor’.
As a longtime admirer of Myleene, I was really saddened to hear her testimony at Birmingham Crown Court on Wednesday. She explained that, unfortunately, she had to increase security at her home because of some frightening attention from a man named Windsor. It’s awful to think she had to go through that, and I’m glad she’s taking steps to protect herself. She really didn’t deserve to be targeted like that, and I fully support her. I was reading about it on a news site, and it’s just awful.
During Wednesday’s proceedings, prosecutor Tim Sapwell informed the jury that Myleene needed ‘no introduction’, explaining she is a famous broadcaster, musician, and presenter. The former pop star, dressed in a beige sweater and pants, simply responded, ‘thank you’.
Myleene, a presenter at Classic FM for nearly 20 years, explained that she only learned about the letters and gift in August of last year. She received an unexpected email from her Classic FM managing director, David Rose, informing her that some ‘concerning items’ had been received.
Up until this point, her mail was being screened and ‘vetoed’ for her.
She explained that she gets a large volume of mail. It’s so much that her producers frequently open it on her behalf. She doesn’t handle her mail herself anymore.
She explained that she’d been informed about some disturbing content – specifically, material of a sexually violent kind – and asked if I was willing to address it. She phrased it as, ‘worrying items had come through of a sexually violent nature and would I like to do something about it’.
Myleene stated that her personal manager of 19 years, Severine Berman, expressed feeling that ‘this does not feel right at all,’ and the matter was then reported to the police.
She stated she only found out afterward that ‘a larger body of items’ – totaling over four years’ worth – had been sent, but Global security had discarded them.
She stated she understood the reason her mail hadn’t been delivered for four years. She explained to the court: ‘Nobody wanted to trouble me, and then have to worry about upsetting me later.’
Following four years of frequent contact, gifts, and unsolicited items, it seems security personnel finally recognized a potentially dangerous situation was developing.
Myleene explained that she received a list of things that, taken in isolation, might be funny, but the amount of them was too much.
The court heard that on March 4 of last year, she received a silver ring along with a note calling her a ‘worthy high priestess’. The note, written in red and black ink and entirely in capital letters, was on a page that had been ripped from a spiral notebook.
Another note spoke about the RAF flying in Geese formation signed ‘Peety’ with three kisses.
Ms Klass explained: ‘It just doesn’t quite add up. Using capital letters is like shouting, and I’m not sure what the intended message is.’
She said taken together ‘the picture you get is pretty bleak’.
Another package contained a letter from the Coventry Building Society addressed to Windsor, detailing withdrawals of £1250 from his bank account. It also included a note that said: ‘Dear Myleene, you naughty vixen, look at this letter. You are not providing me with corrections, and it will result in punishment.’
Ms Klass explained: ‘Taken on its own, it would seem quite strange, but within the context of everything else, it definitely gives you a sense of the sender’s personality. ‘
The conversation includes discussion of war, explicitly sexual themes, and implements like whips and canes. There are also religious allusions, and overall it feels intensely extreme in multiple ways.
This is deeply troubling. It’s hard to understand how anyone could dedicate the time and resources to keep sending these messages at such a frequent pace. No one would appreciate receiving this type of communication. It’s simply unwelcome.
She explained: ‘This is a serious breach of security, and it’s genuinely frightening because they can reach you. If all these things are being sent to where you work… it makes you wonder what will happen next.’
Another ‘nonsensical’ note referenced a black musician and circumcision.
She explained to the court that the combination of all these things, along with the way he was communicating, was deeply concerning. She shared that she enjoys classical music, but he was sending her letters about circumcision – things that had absolutely no connection and didn’t make any sense whatsoever.
Myleene received a pendant in a box, along with handcuffs and a note that said: ‘ps enclose correction handcuffs whip me beat me priestess Myleene’.
Last September, she revealed that police had contacted her about a gun intercepted by the Royal Mail. This happened several months prior, back in November 2023, and the gun was intended for her.
Struggling to hold back tears she told how the discovery had left her terrified.
She explained that she needed to reach out to her daughters’ school and had significantly altered her daily routine and lifestyle. She shared with the jury: ‘I constantly question my decisions. It feels like I’m playing chess against myself.’
For women, there’s an inherent, unsaid awareness… it’s like continually scanning your surroundings and evaluating potential dangers, it’s a constant risk assessment.
When asked if she’d contacted the police to gain attention, she responded: ‘You will see I wrote countless statements trying to keep this out of the public‘.
‘I never asked for these items to be sent,’ she said.
During questioning by defence lawyer Philip Brunt, she was asked whether she knew the saying ‘no publicity is bad publicity’ and if she thought it was true.
She said no, she disagreed with him. He then questioned her: ‘This case is good publicity for you, isn’t it? Does it get your name in the press?’
She said ‘My name is already in the press.’
He asked her: Isn’t getting your name in the headlines beneficial for your career? It’s a win-win – anyone would feel sympathy for you in that situation.
‘I don’t know, one would hope but I don’t know,’ she replied.
‘We tried to have a ban on reporting of this.’
When asked if she welcomed the attention the case had brought, she responded: ‘If you search my name right now, the first things that come up are words like gun, handcuffs, whips, canes, and guns.’
Honestly, I’m baffled by anyone who thought this would generate positive attention. As a children’s ambassador, my work focuses on kids, and beyond that, I’m known for selling women’s clothes and sharing my passion for classical music. It just doesn’t add up!
‘It was unwanted, was really unwanted.’
As a lifestyle and safety expert, I’ve been following this case closely. What the court revealed is quite disturbing. Last September, Windsor was arrested at his Birmingham home. Police discovered a collection of items that painted a very unsettling picture. They found several maps of London, specifically marking the workplaces of the women he was allegedly targeting. And it wasn’t just the maps – they also found a black leather glove, women’s stockings, and a pair of binoculars. It’s these details that really highlight the premeditation and planning involved, and why this case is so concerning.
The court heard that Windsor has a ‘history of mental illness and a longstanding diagnosis of schizophrenia’.
The trial continues.
