Overview

• Peter Windsor, 61, was convicted at Birmingham Crown Court of stalking Myleene Klass and Katie Breathwick after jurors deliberated for four hours and eight minutes.
• He sent scores of unsolicited parcels and letters over several years, including an air pistol addressed to Klass that was intercepted before delivery, plus handcuffs and a police uniform.
• Prosecutors said Windsor mailed Breathwick between 80 and 100 items from March 2020 to December 2023, including a DIY will-writing kit, spiked running shoes, binoculars and champagne.
• Klass described feeling ‘sheer terror,’ and Breathwick testified she changed routines, installed home cameras and arranged security escorts from the London studio.
• Windsor, who has a longstanding diagnosis of schizophrenia, advanced an insanity defense that the jury rejected; the judge said sentencing options include prison or hospital orders, and evidence included maps of the presenters’ workplaces and a prior letter to Nicola Sturgeon described as signed in blood.
