Davinia Taylor reveals her and partner Matthew Leyden’s cars have been stolen by ‘scumbags’ as she appeals for help

Davinia Taylor has revealed that her and her partner Matthew Leyden’s cars were stolen in the middle of the night.

The former Hollyoaks star, 47, took to Instagram to share a furious video on Monday revealing the family car and two of Matthew’s own vehicles had been ‘nicked’.

Davinia revealed the cars were stolen in the middle of the night as she appealed to people from her local area in Lancashire to watch out for any of the vehicles being sold on.

‘So at 2.30am last night, some guys came and nicked mine and Matthew’s cars,’ Davinia raged. Family car, Matt’s cars. I’ve got two pictures of them and then I’ve got a video of them robbing it.

‘But I’m just wondering if anyone in the Blackburn/Clitheroe/Lancashire area clocks these cars or if someone tries to sell you them, they’re stolen. What a wonderful, wonderful way to start half term. Scum. Scumbags everywhere.’

She captioned the clip: ‘Still waiting on a crime reference number @lancspolice. Btw I smashed up the back of the Audi last year so it’s by no means a bargain whatsoever!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

‘Wtf is up with people. Dirty little rats (sorry rats).’

She shared pH๏τos of a BMW and an Audi as she asked fans to keep an eye out.

It comes days after Davinia, who is Kate Moss’s party pal, revealed that if she had ‘one more drink, she could have died’ as she opened up about her former party life.

The former actress, who ditched the party scene to live a healthy life style, has confessed that she kept drinking through her 20s until she hit rock bottom.   

Davinia was famed for her position in the notorious Primrose Hill party set, where she joined her then-husband Dave Gardner in partying through the Nineties with pals including Kate Moss, Sadie Frost and Jude Law. 

And now, Davinia, who has been sober for 17 years after battling alcohol addiction, has become a fitness guru and credits ‘biohacking’ for her ‘biological age of 20’. 

Chatting to the Sun, Davinia explained that she ‘flatlined’ and was drinking to survive rather than for enjoyment.

She told the publication: ‘I was constantly hungover, riddled with anxiety, and alcohol didn’t work for me any more.

‘Not even a glᴀss of red wine would lift me.

‘I was shown these awful videos of myself drunk, and numerous times I was told by doctors, ‘one more drink will kill you’.

Biohacking involves making small, strategic scientific-backed  changes to habits and behaviors to improve things like cognitive function and weight management.

Davina ditched her party girl ways in favour of a cleaner existence, after a 12-week rehab stint in South Africa where she was eventually able to kick her habits. 

The former actress described her battle with alcoholism as a an ‘eternal hell’, because she knew she shouldn’t be drinking but was in a heavy period of withdrawal

Once she got clean, Davinia said she became addicted to other areas of life, such as eating when she gained ‘stones’, before eventually finding a happier balance.

She shares son Grey, 17, with Dave, and Luxx, 13, whose father has never been revealed, and Asa, six, and Jude, seven, with her partner Matthew.

Davinia recently told The Sun how she wishes her mother, who died in 2013, could see the woman she has become.

She said: ‘For her to see me now, as a mother – happy, settled and not needing the fineries to support my ego – would have made her really proud.’

At one point in her life, Davinia faced a custody battle and was suicidal, however, now she said her old self would not have been able to recognise the woman she is today.

Explaining why her younger years were so wild, Davinia said that she has a high dopamine drive, meaning the impulsiveness to do things to feel alive was stronger.

She said that this is a classic symptom of ADHD, but that it is not as widely diagnosed in women as it is in men.

‘A girl with ADHD will be referred to as ‘Dolly Daydream’, and that was me,’ she said. ‘I’m hoping over the next few years that a lot of women my age realise they can get help for it now – it’s not too late.’
