EX-WEST HAM star Nicky Maynard and his family fell victim to a burglary while out celebrating their son’s birthday.
His wife Tara Maynard was left in tears as she returned home to find it ransacked.
Tara, a fashion designer, revealed to her 675,000 Instagram followers that her house had been broken into.
She fought back the tears as she described the extent of the burglary, with countless watches and designer handbags taken from the property.
Even her antibiotics were stolen and her two boys’ safes broken into – stealing the money they had been saving up.
Tara, 35, said in an Instagram video: “Well I tell you what working hard gets you girls, and going out for a meal for your son’s 12th birthday – to come home to be absolutely everything has been taken, like everything.
“We’ve been out for an hour for Trey’s birthday and they’ve literally ransacked the whole place.
“Like even the little kids’ safes with the cash in that they’ve been saving for Christmas and birthdays, they’ve literally taken the lot.’
“Addressing her followers, she said: ‘”If anybody hears or they’re selling any of my bags girls, everybody knows what I’ve got.
“You all know what jewellery I’ve got. Then please, please tell me.’
Showing how the burglars even broke into their sons’ money boxes, she added: ‘Like, what scum on earth?’
The family had been out celebrating their son Trey’s 12th birthday at the time of the incident.
Maynard, 38, said he heard footsteps in the gravel as they returned home – but their neighbours were not aware of the burglary taking place.
A camera was later found in the bushes outside their home which is believed to have been used to spy on them.
In another video taken in the morning after the burglary, Tara again broke down in tears as she described the “eerie feeling” she has been left with.
Police are investigating the incident as Tara spoke about needing her mum with her to re-enter the property.
Both Maynard and Tara have put out appeals to the public to keep an eye out for the belongings, with at least 30 handbags, as well as Cartier and Rolex watches and three Van Cleef bracelets all gone.
Tara believes a “highly professional” gang targeted their home following a spate of burglaries in the Cheshire area.
Jack Grealish fell victim to a burglary nearby on December 27 when he was playing for Manchester City.
