A woman who stalked chart star Craig David left him feeling "violated" in his own home.A woman who stalked chart star Craig David left him feeling "violated" in his own home, a court has heard.Tanya Jeal, 31, turned up at the pop star's home and a hotel where he was staying, and sent a letter to his family and messaged his friends on social media.
In a witness impact statement read to the court by Flora Curtis, a barrister representing the Metropolitan Police, Mr David said the incident "left me feeling violated in my own home".Ms Curtis said the pair met during an album signing at HMV in 2016 where the singer briefly spoke to Jeal before taking a photograph with her.She said their next interaction was later that year when Mr David was staying at Sofitel near Heathrow Airport.
Ms Curtis told the court: "She threw a glove on stage to get his attention. She did this as she says his favourite movie is Serendipity, where someone gives someone a glove with a note inside it.""CCTV footage shows Miss Jeal standing outside his property holding the photograph the pair took together at the Sofitel hotel," Ms Curtis added.
"Fans are generally infatuated by their idols. Any fan you speak to would say the same thing. They would do many crazy things to their idols."Jeal said: "I was doing some research when I saw a YouTube video, which has since been deleted, which was about me and my interaction with him. It said he was gay.
