Myleene Klass Tells Jury of ‘Sheer Terror’ in Stalking Trial of Peter Windsor

Jurors are weighing allegations of a prolonged postal campaign against two Classic FM presenters alongside an insanity defence.

Overview

  • Testifying in Birmingham, Klass said she felt sheer terror after learning an air pistol addressed to her was intercepted, alongside items including handcuffs, a silver ring and a police uniform.
  • She told the court a police constable warned the air gun could be fatal at close range, describing the packages as a highly volatile escalation that left her feeling violated.
  • Classic FM presenter Katie Breathwick testified that she received more than 80 to 100 parcels and letters over three years, including a DIY will kit and binoculars, and said she suffered panic attacks and adopted new security measures.
  • Prosecutors say Windsor’s letters had sexual overtones, citing a note calling Klass a “naughty vixen” and another fantasising about paddling with both women at Buckingham Palace lake while drinking champagne.
  • Windsor, 61, denies two counts of stalking, tells police some items were jokes, has a diagnosed schizophrenia history, and is pursuing an insanity verdict as the trial continues at Birmingham Crown Court.
