The reality star detailed how her stolen bag contained 'irreplaceable' items

Love Island favourite Georgia Harrison detailed how she was "mugged in broad daylight" in London as she pleaded for an "irreplaceable" item to be returned.

The 29-year-old reality star took to Instagram Stories over the weekend to highlight the need to be "hyper-vigilant" in the capital.


Sharing a snap of her bright pink handbag on social media, which had the word "Guccify," written on the front, Harrison penned: "To whoever just stole my bag in London it has so much in it that I care about please return it," The Sun reports.

Sharing a picture of the restaurant, she continued: "I was outside this restaurant @nessasoho so if anyone saw anything please let me know as it's a very noticeable bag but the CCTV couldn't pick it up there was an irreplaceable necklace in there so if you were involved just return in."

She went on to reveal her passport had also been in the bag, adding: "If anyone hears of anyone trying to sell this just know it's mine.

"My passport was in there too and I'm flying next Friday am I going to be able to get a replacement on Monday as it's only giving me options for a 1-week fast track?"

On Monday, she posted an update on her Stories along with a crying face emoji which read: "Been told I can only order a week passport and not an emergency one... meant to be flying 7am Friday they said the odds are it's not gonna make it on time. So annoyed I had it in my bag". (sic)

On her social media page, she shared a number of snaps taken over the weekend where her stolen bag can be seen. She wrote in the caption: "Rip to my [bag] you had a great life with me, we spent some of our final moments embracing whilst Taylor sang shake it off in the pinkest outfit to ever stand alongside you.

"Gone but never forgotten… be so careful in west london there are a lot of thefts you have to be hyper vigilant unfortunately." (sic)

It comes as questions continue to linger over Sadiq Khan "losing control" of London as thefts have soared under his watch.

New data shows thefts and robberies involving knives have nearly doubled under the watch of the Labour London mayor.

According to the data, collated by the mayor’s political rival Susan Hall, "theft from person" has surged by 96 per cent since Khan took office.

Harrison appeared on Love Island back in 2017 before she returned to the villa for ITV2's All Stars series earlier this year.

She ended up finishing in fifth place with partner Anton Danyluk, however, the two didn't continue their romance for long once back in the UK, and in April revealed they had gone their separate ways.

Meanwhile, the TV personality recently issued a hunt that she'd signed up for Celebrity Big Brother.

She declared: "I've got a massive, massive TV appearance coming up," while speaking on the White Fox After Hours podcast.

"I can’t talk about it fully yet but it’s going to show the UK a side of me that they’ve never seen," she went on.

"I'm really excited for it to come about and I'm really happy to be staying on people's screens."
