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.

I'm a Brit who went to summer camp in America – it was like living a 1990's Hollywood film and you can do it too
Find out how to sign up for a your own American summer camp adventure STATESIDE SUMMER I'm a Brit who went to summer camp in America – it was like living a 1990's Hollywood film and you can do it too Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) STICKY hands from melted s'mores, handmade friendship bracelets stacked up your arms and the California heat beating down on your back as you throw an American football. This was my summer as a Camp Counsellor in the U.S.A. 20 I spent two months looking after kids at camp before road-tripping California Credit: Jenna Stevens 20 My camp was Cloverleaf Ranch in California Credit: Jenna Stevens 20 Camp counsellors lead activities for kids spending their summer away from home Credit: Getty For generations, thousands of Americans have spent their childhood summer holidays at a traditional summer camp. Designed to keep kids entertained over the summer vacation (and to give their parents a break) they've become a huge part of American culture. And as a Brit brought up on a diet of American moviews and TV shows, I've always longed to be a part of it too. Thankfully, I could. As summer camps often look for international staff to bring their skills across the pond. Through companies like Camp America, young people from all over the world can get sponsored to go and work in the U.S. You get to live the summer camp dream, make friends from all over the world, plus when it's over you get 30 extra days to travel across the States. But is it actually like The Parent Trap? Is it all singing, dancing and talent shows like in Camp Rock? To be honest? Yes. It was everything you see in the movies and more. Campfire songs, telling ghost stories under torchlight and creating dance routines to Cotton Eye Joe. My days started at 6:30am - going from snoozing my alarm at home, to getting kids' teeth brushed, boots on and out the door before 7am was quite the change from my routine as a 21 year old back in England. Each morning we'd gather on the sports field to raise the American flag, a key part of camp culture us Brits soon had to get used to. After knocking back blueberry pancakes or French toast, and glugging down as much filter coffee as I could manage, the activities for the day began.

Credit: Jenna Stevens The days were filled with everything from archery to animal care, ziplining to basketball. My group of girls and I would sit under a tree and make friendship bracelets, as they requested song after song by Taylor Swift on my Walmart speaker. Our lunches were traditionally American: sloppy joes (bolognese in a burger bun with cheese), hot dogs and chicken tacos. Afternoons were spent cooling off in the pool followed by chill time in our cabins. Whilst some kids took the time to lay in their bunk and write letters home, others would come and point at my polaroids from home that decorated my bed, asking questions about life in the UK. The kids were super curious about life outside of the States, but didn't seem to know all too much. My Kiwi co-worker convinced our bunk that New Zealand didn't have wi-fi or technology, and feigned amazement as they explained to her what a mobile phone was. The kids were always at the ready to jokingly mock my accent. They particularly loved making us British staff say 'bottle of water', as they tried through stifled laughter to mimic 'bott-ul' and 'wart-ur'. I'll also never forget hosting a camp quiz one night, where a group answered 'What is the capital of England?' with a confident and unified 'Paris!' 20 Summer camp was everything I thought it would be from watching teen movies like Camp Rock Credit: Getty 20 The nights spent around the campfire are my most cherished memories Credit: Jenna Stevens 20 Days off were often spent chilling by the nearby lake Credit: Jenna Stevens The kids would stay for one or two weeks at a time, but the camp environment made you grow close - so saying goodbye to them was always the hardest part. We'd end the week with a campfire, roasting marshmallows and sharing our favourite memories. I found myself collecting letters and pictures over the summer, and those handwritten messages and drawings are still posted up on my wall today. Although saying bye was tough, what came next was worth it. I'd made friends from all over the world - Australia, New Zealand, Germany as well as with the American staff. After ten weeks of hard work, I spent my earnings exploring California. 20 The hike to the Hollywood sign was tough, but worth it for the photo op!

We drove from Santa Rosa to Lake Tahoe, and spent a week jet-skiing across deep blue waters. We then headed down to San Francisco for a night, before catching the night bus to L.A. After hiking to the Hollywood sign, skating through Venice Beach and visiting Universal Studios, we headed down to sunny San Diego. We ended our trip meeting sea lions at La Jolla beach and cheering on the San Diego Padres at a home baseball game. If you're looking for a summer in the U.S.A., this is definitely the way to do it. You'll come home sunburnt, sleep-deprived, and with a head full of campfire songs. But the summer camp experience is true movie magic, and the chance to tick off your U.S. bucket list afterwards makes it even better. HOW TO WORK IN A US SUMMER CAMP If you fancy spending a summer in the states, there are three major companies that can sponsor your trip: Camp America, Camp Leaders and BUNAC. Once you set up an account with one of these, they handle all of the paperwork, help you get a Visa, and get you matched up with a summer camp in the U.S. If you pay a bit more, they'll organise your flights too. You don't need any previous camp experience - if you've led a sports club or drama group at a school, volunteered or worked with kids in some way, they'll more than likely be able to find you a placement. Once you're placed, you'll spend 8-10 weeks working with kids, and have 30 days left on your Visa to go wherever you want in the USA. 20 Watching the San Diego Padres in Petco Park made me feel like a true Californian Credit: Jenna Stevens 20 Camp America helped me make friends from all over the world Credit: Jenna Stevens 20 There are thousands of camps across the states that want international staff Credit: Getty

Ex-Top of the Pops presenter walked away from fame as she shares heartbreaking fear
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Sarah Cawood was once one of the most prominent TV hosts of the 90s, and was a key presenter on Top of The Pops. But her life has changed dramatically two decades after her rise to fame. Sarah's first major break came in the '90s when she worked on children's TV for Nickelodeon. Two years later, she secured a presenting role on Channel 4's The Girlie Show, alongside Sara Cox. The show, which ran for two series, followed a magazine-style format, featuring interviews, live music, and stunts. The programme aired at the late 'post-pub' slot of 11pm on Fridays, positioning itself as edgier than its competitors and capitalising on the 'ladette' culture that defined the decade. Sarah then joined the revamped Live and Kicking programme for its final two years on air. (Image: BBC) Her most significant role came with Top of The Pops. After her tenure ended, she went on to present various mini-series and one-off shows, including co-commentating the Eurovision semi-finals in 2007, 2009, and 2010, reports the Daily Record. However, around this time, many of the high-profile presenting opportunities began to dwindle. In 2014, Sarah joined Heart East Anglia's breakfast show team for a year before stepping back to focus on caring for her children. Earlier this year, the star opened up about her health struggles on social media, expressing concerns about her breast cancer returning. She was initially diagnosed in 2022, underwent successful treatment, and was given the all-clear. (Image: sunday mirror) She opened up to her followers about the lingering anxiety of cancer returning. In an open Instagram message, she said: "This is the reality of anyone who has had any kind of cancer. "I never struggled with health anxiety before but post-breast cancer it's all-consuming and it wears me out a bit tbh. I have been feeling tired since the new year began and although it's probably just life-ing, there's always a niggling worry that it's back. "All I can do is carry on doing healthy things, moving my body, practising mindfulness and living each day with gratitude that I got to breathe again this morning. So on we go! Batting away those intrusive thoughts and getting on with it. (Image: ITV) "To anyone either going through a cancer diagnosis or anyone who has recovered from cancer and feels like this: I've got you, and my inbox is always open. And remember, anything that doesn't feel right: get it checked out. Early detection is key." She also took a moment to reflect on her career in television, saying she'd come to terms with no longer being in the limelight. In another heartfelt post, she remarked: "Do I miss telly? I miss the money! And yes, sometimes I wonder what went wrong, but I'm here now so I'm going to make the most of it, however, that looks".

According to Mail Online, Columbia signed JoJo in 2024 and she released her single Karma and an EP called Guilty Pleasure with the music giant. But the publication has claimed the Dance Moms star released her newest single, Bulletproof, independently and is now on the hunt for a new label while in the UK. JoJo, 22, is also no longer listed on Columbia's website, where she was previously featured alongside other artists including Miley Cyrus and Halle. A source told the Mail: "JoJo has been dropped by Columbia Records… she self-released her latest song Bulletproof whereas Karma was done with the label. "She has been in London on the lookout for a new record company to sign with and playing gigs hoping to impress the right people." The Sun has contacted JoJo's reps for comment. Following her recent Celebrity Big Brother stint, JoJo returned home to the US before travelling to Mexico to perform several music gigs. She has since flown back to London and has been busy visiting various radio stations and giving interviews to promote her music. JoJo has also performed two gigs in London and has an 11-date tour booked for July back home in the States. JoJo Siwa fans say she 'broke the internet' with Karma music video after watching her sensual dance with female performer In an interview with Hits Radio last week, JoJo spoke about her new music and hinted that she was going it alone.

Speaking to Billboard, JoJo said: "It blows my mind that 30 days ago I would never have even imagined that I would be friends with Chris Hughes, that's the weirdest thing, much less be one of the closest people to me now in my life who I would die for." 5 JoJo says she is taking a new direction with her music Credit: Getty 5 She headed to Mexico after CBB for several gigs and was joined by Chris Hughes Credit: itsjojosiwa/Instagram
