A court hears allegations involving Lewis Hepworth, 29, who previously appeared on the reality TV show TOWIE and later worked as a teacher. Prosecutors say Hepworth was arrested after being accused of stalking a 16-year-old pupil. The court also hears that, after he is said to have been dismissed from a school in Harrow, he allegedly “hatched a plan” to take the pupil’s phone.
According to the account presented in court, the plan involved recruiting another student and a dinner lady to help steal the device. The allegations relate to an incident in which Hepworth is accused of targeting the same 16-year-old for the phone theft.
The reports provided do not describe the outcome of any charges or whether Hepworth denies the allegations. The case details that were summarized are based on what the court hears during proceedings, and the matters remain subject to the legal process.
