He was a TV reality star used to the finest cuisine. But now Marco Pierre White, son of the top chef of the same name, has a cell for a home and prison food to contest with.
Bristol Crown Court heard Marco Pierre White junior had a privileged start in life and was from a good family. But the former Big Brother contestant has been struggling with heroin addiction from the age of 18. And, after three times breaching the terms of a suspended sentence, he has finally been put behind bars.
He pleaded guilty to 14 offences of shoplifting, possessing a knife, possessing heroin, a racially aggravated public order offence. The offences spanned January last year to April this year and relate to the Bath area.
