The Traitor’s star Wilfred Webster was recently left shaken and alarmed this week after his home was invaded by burglars during the middle of the day.
Webster was an original Traitor on the first season of the hit show where he tried to deceive his fellow contestants out of the top prize.
Whilst many fans fell in love with Webster and his game playing, he was recently left shaken after his home and life were threatened by masked thugs.
Uploading images of his door which had been smashed open, he recalled the horrifying events: “This morning my wife left for work. I was lying on my bed with headphones watching Netflix on my phone.
“The next thing I see my bedroom door open and I thought it was my wife and turns out it’s some low-life piece of s**t burgling my house in a balaclava!
“I jumped off the bed in shock and he ran downstairs and out the back of the house via a window. I ran out of the front door and stood in the garden in shock and the pair of melts walked around the corner and I spotted them.
“One of them shouted ‘stab him’ and then ran at me with a big knife. Quickly I ran back into my house and shut the door and phoned the police.
“[They] came very quickly and to my own lack of motivation I had not charged the Ring doorbell BUT all of the neighbours are more proactive with theirs and managed to give footage to the police and identified the car they left in.
“I’ve been through a lot in my life but I have never felt so scared. My house is my safe space and to have someone break in and take away that safety is horrible. I’m even posting this picture using a VPN out of fear.”
He went on to warn: “We believe they entered by breaking the panelling on the back door and squeezing through and exited through the back window

“We’re definitely upgrading our security and I’m never wearing noise-cancelling headphones again. People if you do have a doorbell that records please charge it.
“I can’t believe I’m saying this but keep your house safe. Realistically no one should enter your house unwanted but we live in a world with scumbags!”
Fans of Webster were quick to share their support for the star, as one sweetly penned: “What a horrific experience. Glad you guys are safe.”
Another added: “I’m so sorry this has happened to you. That’s horrific and traumatic. Make sure you look after yourself and get some support if you need it, Wilf!”
