AceShowbiz - Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban experienced a weekend fright as their $4.7 million Beverly Hills mansion became the latest target in a disturbing pattern of celebrity home burglaries in Los Angeles.
The celebrity couple, both 57, were not present during the break-in, which occurred while their Beverly Hills estate, boasting five bedrooms and covering 3,977-square-feet, stood empty, according to TMZ.
Details from the incident reveal that an intruder smashed a window to gain entry but fled upon hearing one of the couple's employees arriving at the residence. While it remains unclear if anything was stolen, authorities have launched an official investigation. To date, no arrests have been made.
The break-in at Kidman and Urban's mansion follows a troubling trend of high-profile burglaries in the Los Angeles area. Other victims included Tom Hanks, Jessie J, Tyler Perry, Sophia Bush, and Marlon Wayans throughout 2024.
Recently, intruders also targeted a house owned by "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" star Simu Liu just before New Year's. Meanwhile, Jessie J lost over $20,000 in jewelry during a burglary at her Southern California mansion.
Victoria's Secret model Daniela Braga and jewelry designer Martin Katz have also faced detrimental burglaries, with Braga losing $1 million worth of belongings and Katz suffering a theft of $2.5 million in Hermes bags.
These incidents represent just a fraction of a sweeping crime wave affecting not only entertainers but also professional athletes like Kansas City Chiefs' stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow during the peak of football season.
Authorities, including the FBI, have been prompted to issue warnings as investigations reveal organized theft groups may be targeting homes in the wealthy areas.
As investigations continue and celebrities brace for potential threats, there's a heightened awareness around the security of high-value properties in LA. This latest string of burglaries serves as a reminder that no one is immune to the reach of organized crime.
