Myleene Klass, a well-known TV personality and singer, reportedly received unsettling items with suggestive undertones, including a Catwoman costume, causing her to feel anxious for her safety. The 47-year-old celebrity was allegedly labeled a “naughty vixen” in a note sent to her.
Peter Windsor, aged 61, appeared in court and refuted accusations of stalking Myleene and another individual, Classic FM radio host Katie Breathwick. The court heard that Windsor supposedly caused both women significant distress by sending them various items through the mail, including peculiar items like binoculars, running shoes, Champagne, and a stamp collection.
Allegedly, Windsor bombarded Myleene with unsolicited letters, costumes, footwear, and jewelry between specific periods. A jury comprising ten men and two women was empaneled at Birmingham Crown Court, with Judge Tom Rochford cautioning them against conducting personal online investigations about the well-known complainants and assuring the introduction of psychiatric evidence during the trial.
Prosecutor Timothy Sapwell highlighted the distress inflicted on the victims, emphasizing Windsor’s alleged obsession with them, evidenced by the numerous bizarre and sexually suggestive parcels sent. The court was informed that the recipients, Myleene and Katie, felt alarmed and distressed, expressing concerns about their safety at work due to Windsor’s persistent interest.
Sapwell disclosed Windsor’s schizophrenia diagnosis and shared details of Myleene’s management team intercepting suspicious parcels before involving the authorities. Upon investigation, Windsor’s residence yielded incriminating items like London maps, leather gloves, stockings, and binoculars. It was mentioned that Windsor claimed innocence, attributing his actions to a misunderstanding.
Windsor faces two charges of stalking, with the trial ongoing.
