Love Island star Olivia Attwood has issued a plea for help as her luxury car was stolen from her home.
The former ITV reality star, 31, begged fans to help track down her £70k Range Rover after it was taken from her driveway in the early hours of Thursday (September 15). Olivia – who came fourth in the third series of the hit dating show – took to Instagram to issue the desperate plea.
Posting an image of the car to her Instagram stories, she said: “This car has just been stolen from my driveway, about 15 mins ago. If anyone in Manchester sees it.

“Offering reward. It has a tracker and we have camera images of the thieves.”
She later speculated the car would likely have its number plates changed and asked fans to “get in touch” if they see a similar looking car with an “urban” kit. Begging her followers to keep their eyes open, the former islander revealed the thieves had been “chucking out dog towels [and] clothing” and asked for any witnesses to send photos and their location in an attempt to retrieve the vehicle.
Olivia – who lives in Manchester with her fiancé, Blackburn Rovers footballer Bradley Dack – also revealed the car has no fuel so urged “anyone in petrol stations in Manchester/Cheshire to keep your eyes open.” Seven hours after she first shared the horrifying news, Olivia thanked her fans for their help and revealed she had received some “promising leads.”
Olivia is not the first celebrity to fall foul of car thieves in recent weeks, as last month The Only Way is Essex star Pete Wicks had his £85k Range Rover stolen from his driveway in Harlow. In December last year, former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona had two cars stolen in just 11 days.
A distraught Kerry said she was “in bits” after robbers took her boyfriend’s Mercedes from their driveway just days after she had raced after thieves who had taken her £110k Range Rover from an Oldham shopping park.
