Jennifer Abbott: Woman's 'murder' could be linked to diamond-encrusted Rolex, say police

The death of a woman in north London could be linked to her missing diamond-encrusted Rolex watch, murder detectives believe. Jennifer Abbott, 69, was pronounced dead after being found with stab injuries at her home in Mornington Place, Camden, on Friday 13 June. The Metropolitan Police said the victim, who was known professionally as Sarah Steinberg, was popular in the area, which is close to Regent's Park. She was last seen by neighbours walking her Corgi dog on Tuesday 10 June, three days before police were called by an ambulance crew. Detectives said they were keeping an open mind about a possible motive for her killing. But they are appealing for information about a Rolex watch, with a distinctive diamond-encrusted face, which is missing from her home. A post-mortem gave her cause of death as sharp force trauma. No arrests have been made. Chief Superintendent Jason Stewart said officers were working with homicide detectives to find out what happened. "It's incredibly important that we hear from anyone who may have knowledge about how this awful death occurred," he said in an appeal for witnesses. "Were you out in Camden on Friday? Perhaps you had been coming home from work, or at an event nearby? Did you see or hear anything around Mornington Place that struck you as being unusual? Chief Supt Stewart added: "Someone must have seen or heard something and no piece of information is too small. It could be the crucial clue that leads us to identify Jennifer's murderer. "Extra patrols continue in the area while my officers remain at the crime scene. I would urge anyone who has any information, or who may be worried, to speak to them."

Paloma Faith reveals she 'nearly died' during violent attack by an ex who tried to run her off the road before smashing her window and pulling her out of it

Paloma Faith has revealed that she 'nearly died' during a violent attack at the hands of an ex when she was younger. The singer, 43, opened up about the horrifying ordeal on her podcast Mad Sad Bad on Tuesday, where she was joined by Ruby Wax. Paloma shared that she was left with a black eye and 'smashed up' face after an ex-partner tried to run her off the run in a high-speed car chase before smashing her window and pulling her out of it. The star got an injunction out against the man following the 'very violent' attack - but she ran into him seven years in a bizarre twist of fate. Making her way to work at an underwear shop, Paloma saw her ex waving at her and she agreed to go for a last drink - but as she discussed 'taking back the power' following an assault, Paloma said she left him stunned when she said she found his chat boring and walked out. Paloma said the moment made her feel as though she had 'conquered' something as she healed from the ordeal. Recalling the attack, Paloma said: 'This guy, when I was younger, attacked me very, very, very violently, and I nearly died. 'It was a high speed car chase, and he tried to run me off the road. He's an ex, and I nearly died. 'He drove his car into the front of somebody's house, and he came and smashed my driver's side window in and pulled me out, but I got a black eye and a smashed up face, and then I got an injunction against him.' Paloma continued: 'Seven years later, I saw him. I was going to my job when I worked in the knicker shop, dressed all like, you know, knickery in the little pink outfit - feeling quite confident in the uniform. 'And I see this man drive past, and he goes, and then he gets out, and then he says, "Can I take you for a drink after work? I feel like we need to clear it up." I said, "Yeah, I'd like to go." 'So I went for a drink and I let him speak. I didn't say very much, and I asked him some questions. His answers were kind of boring. 'And then I just said, "I'm gonna go now." And he said, "why?" I said, "I find you quite boring".' It comes after Paloma opened up about her 'posh' new boyfriend after Vogue Williams confronted her for calling Spencer Matthews 'posh'. The hilarious exchange happened on the Mad, Sad and Bad podcast when Paloma asked Vogue, 39, what attracted her to 'the multimillionaire hunk'. Vogue then revealed that her husband Spencer, 36, told her that Paloma ' kept slagging him for being posh.' Paloma said: 'Yeah, but I've now got a posh boyfriend. Now I'm dating one - I'm sleeping with the enemy.' The singer, who has spoken candidly about her working-class upbringing in Hackney, London, then apologised to listeners about her choice of lover. She joked: 'I'm thinking of it more like a social experiment.' Vogue, from Portmarnock, Dublin, went on to explain that she is 'considered posh'. She then answered the question and said that her now-husband was great fun, so much so that he managed to convince her it was better to be with him than be single, which is what she wanted at the time. She said: 'He was great craic. He really was. 'All my gay friends were like, "Vogue, you better sleep with him."' While she was reluctant at first, she said the pair, who are celebrating their seventh anniversary, 'kept coming back together'. Paloma went public with her new man Stevie Thomas, the director of a music venue in Birmingham, in March of this year at Sony's Brit Award's afterparty at Nobu Portman Square.
