When she returned backstage, her gold band and several other pieces of jewellery were missing.
A Eurovision insider said: 'A few items were missing and no one seemed to know where they went. It was obviously very upsetting.'
Holly-Anne, 30, wed her partner Craig in 2023.
The Sun understands all the jewellery was later found, to the girls' relief, after what appeared to be an innocent mix-up.
The trio also featuring Lauren Byrne, 30, and Charlotte Steele, 31, performed at the St Jakobshalle arena in Basel, Switzerland, and finished in 19th place.
The group were tenth after the jury vote on Saturday night.
But they received no points from the public, sending them tumbling down the leader board.
They flew home to the UK yesterday.
The contest, watched by 7.9million Brits, was won for Austria by opera singer JJ with Wasted Love.
It knocked New Day Will Rise by Israel's Yuval Raphael into second place in the show's final minutes.

Security was tightened for the event, but two pro-Palestinian protesters tried to storm the stage during Israel's performance, with a crew member being hit with paint.
A man and a woman were ejected from the arena and Yuval was said to be 'shaken and upset'.
Police earlier clashed with pro-Palestinian protestors in the centre of Basel.

Dana White makes worrying Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall admission after giving into UFC icon's X-rated demands
Jones continues to troll UFC fans demanding he be stripped of his belt on social media Dana White makes worrying Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall admission after giving into UFC icon's X-rated demands Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DANA WHITE has made a worrying admission over the proposed super-fight between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall. The UFC brass have been trying to finalise a historic heavyweight title unification bout between the pair since last November.

The mammoth melee has, frustratingly, yet to come to fruition as Jones has publicly toyed with the prospect of retirement. And White admits the fate of the fight is ultimately in the hands of the former long-reigning light-heavyweight champion. When asked about the prospect of a shock bout between Jones and ex-champ Francis Ngannou, White insisted: 'It's Aspinall's fight. READ MORE ON JONES VS ASPINALL JON GONE? Jon Jones trolls Dana White and UFC fans as he finally reveals fight plans 'I mean, we've been talking to this kid about it forever and it's his fight. 'Listen, you can't make people fight, if Jon doesn't want to fight, you can't make him fight. "We can try to make him fight, we can throw things at him that inspire him to want to fight, but we'll figure it out." According to White, former pound-for-pound king Jones "AGREED" to put off retirement to share the octagon with Brit bruiser Aspinall. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS 5 "Jon Jones agreed to do the fight," he said. "Jon Jones was offered the deal and accepted the deal. Jon agreed to fight Tom, yes. 'You guys have heard me for the last however long, 'I guarantee this fight is going to happen. This fight's going to happen.' UFC boss Dana White shoots down Jon Jones vs Francis Ngannou fight "You guys told me the crazy s**t that's going on Instagram, and all these other places, but yes, I've been saying Jon is going to fight Tom.' White has faced a deluge of calls - including a 200,000-people-strong petition - to strip Jones of his heavyweight crown. But Jones recently hinted he'll relinquish the belt before it's taken away from him, saying: 'I spoke to the UFC a long time ago about what my future plans were. "I haven't really worked out since my last fight in New York City. 'Honestly, I believe it's been in the UFC's best interest to keep presenting me as the company's champion - not Tom. "I've just been playing the role of the company man by doing nothing at all… and holding the position. If Jon doesn't want to fight, you can't make him fight." Dana White on Jon Jones 'And truthfully, it's been incredibly lucrative. "I've made more money off of Tom being the interim champ than Tom has himself. "It sucks to see the rest of the division get slowed down like this, but that has nothing to do with me. I don't pull the strings. 'And remember, you can't strip a guy like me at this point I give the belt up freely. Veni, vidi, vici.' Jones hasn't fought since his Madison Square Garden mauling of Stipe Miocic at UFC 309 last November. Interim titleholder Aspinall, meanwhile, has been twiddling his thumbs since his 60-second demolition of Curtis Blaydes at UFC 304 last July.

Palestinian comedians to make debuts at Edinburgh Festival Fringe
As part of The Stand's programme this year, The Palestine Comedy Club will be brought to the Fringe. PalCom is a Palestine-UK collective developing comedy unique to the Palestinian experience and organisers say it will act as a platform for Palestinian artists to share their stories. Making their debut at the Fringe will be Alaa Shehada (Jenin), Diana Sweity (Hebron) Hanna Shammas (Haifa) and Sami Abu-Wardeh (London). READ MORE: David Lammy urged to intervene as Madleen seized by Israel As well as a trio of shows at the Fringe, PalCom will also visit Stand venues in Glasgow and Newcastle. The Stand Comedy Club said it is vital that Palestine is represented at the Fringe this year. Chair of the board Tommy Shepherd said: 'All too often people have forgot the Palestinians have a thriving Mediterranean culture. This is what the Israeli government are trying to extinguish. 'We're delighted to do our part in standing in solidarity with Palestinian artists and helping them reach an international audience.' The Stand has made several moves in support of Palestine including becoming a supporter of Unite Hospitality Glasgow's Serve Solidarity, Boycott Apartheid campaign, which aims to support worker-led boycotts of PepsiCo products and Israeli fresh produce. To help fund travel costs for Palestine Comedy Club, The Stand will also hold two benefit nights that will feature some of Scotland's leading talent in Edinburgh and Glasgow. In Glasgow on Monday, June 16, host Billy Kirkwood will introduce Stuart McPherson, Ray Bradshaw, Christopher Macarthur-Boyd and Susie McCabe. Meanwhile, the Edinburgh benefit will take place on Tuesday, June 24, with Susan Morrison hosting Vladimir McTavish, Marc Jennings, Krystal Evans, Ryan Cullen and Jay Lafferty. PalCom will appear at Newcastle's Stand on Saturday, August 16, before heading to its Edinburgh branch on Monday 18, Tuesday 19 and Wednesday, August 20, with a final stop-off in Glasgow on Thursday, August 21.

Macklemore's $2.1m home raided by masked intruders who bear-sprayed nanny & demanded ‘where are the jewels?'
The nanny reportedly bit one of the suspects HOME INVASION Macklemore's $2.1m home raided by masked intruders who bear-sprayed nanny & demanded 'where are the jewels?' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MACKLEMORE'S home was raided by masked intruders who allegedly stole jewelery worth thousands of dollars and bear-sprayed a nanny looking after children inside. The suspects reportedly demanded to know where the jewels were located before ransacking the home, according to cops. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Macklemore's home in Washington was allegedly ransacked by masked intruders Credit: KING TV 3 Macklemore has been performing in Ireland in recent days Credit: Getty Two men allegedly broke into the home, located in Seattle, Washington, in the early hours of Saturday morning via a patio door, according to a police report seen by the Fox affiliate KCPQ-TV. The nanny claimed she had her phone stolen and was thrown to the ground. One man reportedly demanded: 'Where are the jewels b***h?' She claimed that one of the intruders looked scared after she was sprayed, as per The Seattle Times. She is believed to have ushered the two men to one of the bedrooms inside the property. The masked men, who were wearing black outfits, vests, and face masks, allegedly stole jewelry, watches and shoes. Three kids were inside the home at the time and they were taken to safety. And, the nanny managed to escape the home after biting one of the men. Doorbell footage, seen by the local outlet KING-TV, showed the nanny standing on a homeowner's porch and banging on the door. 'Help, please,' she begged. She pounded the doors of several homes begging for help, according to the outlet. The nanny wasn't seriously injured, police confirmed. Cops also revealed the intruders had fled the scene by the time they arrived. Macklemore, known for his 2012 track Thrift Shop, bought the property for $2.1 million in 2014. The star has not commented on the burglary as of yet. He has been performing in Dublin and Cork, Ireland. In one social media post, he described the gigs in Ireland as a 'homecoming.' It comes just weeks after an intruder smashed through the gates of Jennifer Aniston's mansion in California. HOMES TARGETED A string of high-profile stars have had their homes targeted in recent months. NBA star Ja Morant was the victim of a burglary in December. His home was targeted while he was playing for the Memphis Grizzlies against the Golden State Warriors. Around $1 million worth of items was stolen from the property, according to cops. American football stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were also victims of burglaries last year. Mahomes' wife Brittany had her designer bags and jewelry swiped. In February, it was reported that seven people were charged over allegations they stole $2 million worth of items from properties belonging to pro-athletes. The men are allegedly part of a South American crime ring, as per ABC News. The U.S. Sun has approached Seattle Police Department for comment.
