THE wife of Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana was reportedly robbed of her £62,000 Hermes Birkin bag and a Rolex watch.
Model Melanie Kamayou had her bling snatched outside an Italian restaurant in Cheshire on March 29.
Liam Ross, 25, from the Wibsey area of Bradford, has been charged with the high-value robbery, the Daily Mail reports.
The alleged thief is claimed to have taken the ultra-luxury designer goods in the heart of the picturesque Cheshire village.
Ross appeared before Chester Magistrates Court on Friday, also facing a charge of supplying cannabis.
He’s due back in court at Chester Crown Court in May.
Melanie, who describes herself online as a pharmacist, businesswoman and philanthropist, often poses up with her luxury possessions online.
One of these items in a £62,000 Hermes Birkin bag – a brand widely considered the rarest and most sought-after in the world.
Hermes Birkin bags can fetch hundreds of thousands of pounds with the priciest one ever sold going for a jaw-dropping £1.5million.
The high-end handbag owner has been married to football star Onana since 2023 and the pair are reported to have a son together.
They moved to the UK when Onana signed for United from Inter Milan last summer.
He’s since made 92 appearances for the Red Devils, including in their 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest on Tuesday.
The couple now live in Alderley Edge, a magnet for Premier League stars past and present.
It’s been nicknamed the ‘Knightsbridge of the North’ and is home to some of football’s biggest names and flashiest cars.
The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney have all called the village home.
More recently, Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson, as well as Man City’s Raheem Sterling and Virgil van Dijk, have been spotted in the area.
It’s also a hotspot for supercar enthusiasts, with Porsches, Lamborghinis and Ferraris lining the leafy streets – and drawing photographers from across the country.
The Sun has contacted Cheshire Police for more information.
