- Peter Windsor has been accused of sending an air pistol and costumes to Myleene Klass over a nine-month harassment campaign.
- He reportedly stalked another Classic FM DJ, Katie Breathwick, for nearly three years prior.
- The case highlights significant concerns about the safety of public figures and the seriousness of stalking allegations.
In Birmingham, England, Peter Windsor, a 60-year-old man, is accused of a sustained campaign of harassment against Classic FM host Myleene Klass. This harassment allegedly spanned nine months, during which Windsor sent various unsolicited gifts, including an air pistol, as well as costumes representing Catwoman and a police officer, which raised significant alarm for Klass. Prosecutors allege that his actions not only caused serious distress but were intended to intrude on her personal life and safety. The air pistol was intercepted before reaching Klass, highlighting the potential danger of the situation. The court has also been informed that Windsor previously stalked Katie Breathwick, who also works at Classic FM, for nearly three years before shifting his focus to Klass. Both received strange letters featuring Windsor's address that were sent to the radio station's London office. Windsor is set to face trial in March on two counts of stalking causing serious alarm, having not yet entered a plea regarding the allegations against him. Klass, who gained fame after her stint on 'I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!' has publically reflected on the lighter outcomes of her celebrity experiences in interviews, contrasting her joyful moments in the spotlight with the distress caused by Windsor’s actions. This case raises broader concerns regarding personal safety and the legal protections available to public figures against stalking and harassment.
