This Happened: Actress Jodie Turner-Smith's Jewellery Stolen At Cannes

"I didn't think I would be spending 2.5 hours in the police station on my final day in Cannes, but here we are," Jodie Turner-Smith tweeted

Hollywood star Jodie Turner-Smith has fallen victim to the curse of Cannes - the jewellery thieves who regularly haunt the world's biggest film festival. The British-born actress wore eye-catching Gucci gold and diamond jewellery to the red carpet premiere of her latest film After Yangon Thursday. The next morning her suite at the Marriott hotel in the Riviera resort was broken into while she was having breakfast with her one-year-old daughter. Police told AFP on Monday that they were investigating a theft of jewellery from the hotel but it was unclear whether the jewellery was Gucci's -loaned for the premiere - or the actress's own. The star of Queen And Slim and the series Nightflyers and The Last Ship made no mention of her loss when she gave a "Women in Motion" talk at the festival Sunday. But she tweeted later: "I didn't think I would be spending 2.5 hours in the police station on my final day in Cannes, but here we are." It was the 34-year-old's first time at the festival. Cannes have become a notorious hunting ground for international cat burglars with a member of the infamous Pink Panthers gang suspected of taking gems worth 103 million euros ($130 million) from the Carlton hotel in 2013.
