Holly Willoughby makes heartbreaking statement as Gavin Plumb convicted over twisted kidnap, rape and murder plot


Security guard Gavin Plumb, 37, has been found guilty at Chelmsford Crown Court of masterminding a plot to kidnap, rape and murder TV presenter Holly Willoughby

Holly Willoughby has broken her silence after security guard Gavin Plumb was found guilty of masterminding “graphic” plans to kidnap, rape and murder the TV presenter. A jury at Chelmsford Crown Court dismissed Plumb's defence that his plans were a “mere fantasy”, agreeing with the prosecution that he was a “prolific liar who sought to minimise the extent of his criminality”. Plumb told jurors that bottles of chloroform he had purchased were to clean a carpet stain and that he had bought a BDSM kit, including a set of handcuffs, in 2014 “to rekindle my relationship with my ex-partner”.
