Two men who carried out the knifepoint robbery at Mark Cavendish's home have been sentenced to 15 and 12 years in prison respectively.
Intruders wearing balaclavas broke into the Olympic cyclist's Essex home at around 2.30am on November 27 2021 while the cyclist was asleep upstairs with his wife Peta, Chelmsford Crown Court was told.
The robbers stole several items, including two luxury Richard Mille watches with a combined value of £700,000. The court also heard that they threatened to stab Cavendish.
