“so …. having set off on our holiday and landing within 3 hours we were robbed,” the “Real Housewives of Dubai” star wrote on her Instagram Story over the weekend.
Stanbury, 46, explained that her three children and her husband, Sergio Carrallo, were vacationing to celebrate her daughter, Yasmine, receiving her General Certificate of Secondary Education when it “turned into a nightmare.”
“we came home to the men still in our house,” the Peacock personality continued, adding that the thieves stole “so much” but her loved ones were all safe.
Stanbury also posted a video of their suitcases and luggage items wide open with various clothes and accessories thrown everywhere and scattered across rooms.
“it was so scary that I can’t express it,” Carrallo, 27, wrote on his own Instagram Story.
“This is the f–king problem with the society and people.. and why the world is becoming this way.”
“it was so scary that I can’t express it,” Sergio Carrallo wrote.sergiocarrallo/InstagramStanbury then posted a photo of what appeared to be a broken lock near a window.
“stay safe … i have hired security now,” she captioned the snap.
