Addressing the perpetrators, she said in a post on social media that 'we saw your faces,' and 'what you were looking for isn't kept at the property.'
Writing against the black backdrop, Olivia, 34, penned: 'That's why we pay through the nose for private security.
'On sight in 2 minutes with dog team & the incredible nw police force not far behind.'
She continued: 'We saw your faces, we have your foot prints & finger prints. & sorry what you were looking for isn't actually kept at the property.'
Now, the Love Island star has appeared in a TikTok video, and shared more details about what happened.
She shared a look inside her busy day, and then while sat in the back of a cab Olivia said: 'So obviously I can't go into too much detail because it's an open investigation now.
'But some scumbags basically smashed a second floor window, went in and the security team got the notification within like 30 seconds and they were there within two minutes with dogs.'
Olivia added: 'The little scumbags ran off. They got some stuff but they didn't get what they came for, and now I have to just show face because it's a really important work day and I'm feeling a bit tired and a little bit emosh, but yeah, brave face.'
The star was seen crying in one clip during her busy day, which saw her go from one appointment to another, and falling asleep in the back of a taxi.
Olivia Attwood reveals she's landed huge ITV role on This Morning after Loose Women success
It comes after the Love Island star turned TV presenter justified her inclusion in This Morning's line-up of summer presenters, saying: "I've put the hard work in".
The Love Island favourite, who has built a successful career fronting documentaries and as a Loose Women panellist, is one of a number of stars filling in for regular hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard over the summer break.
Though she's not the first reality star to host the show, with fellow summer star and X Factor icon Rylan Clark having already proven a dab hand on the set, Olivia's villa background hasn't gone down well with some traditionalists who have gone so far as to say they'll "definitely stop watching'.
But Olivia, 34, is confident in her abilities and feels she's earned her stripes to become ITV's new golden girl.
She exclusively told The Sun: "Those who know me understand the hard work I've put in to get where I am today.
"I'm forever grateful to Love Island for being the springboard to my career, but I'm excited to show there's so much more to me beyond the villa."
She continued: "It's been a lot of hard work, but I've always stayed focused on my goals and believed in myself and I'm very thankful for ITV in believing me."
As someone who grew up watching the show as a child, she knows what it's about and the position it has in the national consciousness.
She said: "When I got the gig, I was over the moon! I grew up watching the show, and to be a part of it feels like such a huge achievement!"

Emma Bunton and Tom Fletcher share emotional tributes to 'life-changing' stage school pioneer Sylvia Young after her death at 86

Emma Bunton and Tom Fletcher shared emotional tributes to stage school pioneer Sylvia Young, following her death at the age of 86. Some of Britain's best known entertainers and singers owe their careers to the pioneering teacher, who founded her eponymous school in 1972, including Amy Winehouse, Rita Ora and Billie Piper. Taking to Instagram to share a snap with her former teacher, Emma described Sylvia as a 'life-changer', calling her time at her school as 'some of the best days of her life.' She captioned her post: 'Heartbroken today. Sylvia Young is the reason I can say that I loved my school days. They were some of the best times in my life and she looked after all her young'uns'! 'She was an amazing women, she was a presence, a light, and for me, a life-changer. 'She had a way of seeing the best in everyone, lifting us all, with her wisdom, kindness, and unwavering belief in potential, Sylvia gave me more than just encouragement she gave me a sense of direction and the courage to follow it. 'She didn't just live in this world she grew with it. 'Thinking of her family so much today and sending all my love and hugs to Norman, Frances, Alison and all the beautiful grandchildren. ❤️ 'She will always continue to inspire me every day. I carry her words, her warmth, and her legacy with me. And I always will. 'Thank you, Sylvia. You were and always will be so special to me.' Meanwhile Tom, who also attended Sylvia's school before joining McFly, posted a snap of her attending his wedding to wife Giovanna in 2012. In his moving caption, he revealed that he and his wife first met while they were attending Sylvia's school, and credited her for 'changing his life.' He wrote: 'Absolutely heartbroken to hear that Sylvia has passed away. Sylvia changed my life. I first met her when I was 9 years old when I went into her office halfway through a term, hoping for a place at her school. 'She asked me to sing ''Where Is Love?'' and then told me to get a uniform, I could start the school on Monday! 'Her school is a magical place. She helped so many of us not only fulfil our dreams but created a school environment where we were all happy. 'I was so lucky to have spent my childhood in that special place and under her guidance. It wasn't a school, it was a family. 'Giovanna and I would never have met if it wasn't for Sylvia, and I think she forgave us on our wedding day for all the times we were caught kissing in the corridors around the school. 'Like all of her ex-students, Sylvia has always stood by me, supporting everything I've done and I hope I made her proud. 'She was one of a kind. My heart and thoughts go out to Norman, all of Sylvia's family and friends, and to everyone that knew her.' Daughter and West End star Frances Ruffelle - the mother of pop star Eliza Doolittle - announced on Wednesday her mother died peacefully surrounded by her family. Now based in Westminster, the £14,400-a-year school began with part time classes in the east end of London, before expanding to a larger space in Marleybone and then changing venues once again to a converted church in Westminster where it remains today. The school has a strong reputation for nurturing young talent with an alumni that reads like a roll call of British showbusiness. Other famous faces who attended include Singer Dua Lipa, presenter Denise Van Outen and Tom Fletcher from McFly. Denise Van Outen credited Sylvia for her career. In an interview she told how Young has advised her 'don't focus on one thing, try and do all of it and you'll always work.' Young's daughter, Frances Ruffelle who was the original Eponine in the West End stage stage production of Les Miserables, paid tribute to her mother on social media. She said: 'Our mum was a true visionary, she gave young people from all walks of life the chance to pursue their performing arts skills to the highest standard. 'Her rare ability to recognise raw talent and encourage all her students, contributed to the richness of today's theatre world, even winning an Olivier award herself along the way. 'She believed hard work with a bit of luck brought success and she was an example of that herself. 'Above all she leaves the memory of an East End girl who's worked hard to achieve her goals, took hold of life and lived it to the full. 'Her family were everything to her, her wonderful husband, Norman, our dad and her grandchildren, Eliza, Nat, Phoenix and Coral and her great grandson, Felix. 'We share her love with her wide and inclusive family, her friends, her students, you all meant the world to her.' Tributes have poured in for Syliva. Radio legend Tony Blackburn wrote: So sorry to hear Sylvia Young has passed away. She founded the Sylvia Young Theatre School which has been responsible for starting so many careers in TV and Theatre. 'She was a very lovely lady who I have had the privilege of knowing for many years. She will be sadly missed. R.I.P Sylvia.' Actor Sadie Frost wrote: 'What a woman, what a family, what a legacy! 'Sending everyone so much love and support - I am here if you need me. 'She was always so lovely to me and will cherish memories forever.' EastEnders star Adam Woodyatt, famous for playing Ian Beale, also replied to Frances's Instagram post, sharing a broken heart emoji. All Saints singer Nicole Appleton wrote: 'Frances, I am so sorry to hear your amazing mum has passed. She was a massive part in my life and paved the way for so many of us! Sending you all so much love.' Her sister and fellow All Saints star wrote: 'Oh Frances. I am so sad, so sorry to hear this news. Your amazing mum was a pioneer. She was a rare force who just knew... and she worked so hard.. what a legend. 'This is going to really affect us all who were lucky enough to be part of her amazing world growing up. What a time. The best memories. 'I'm sending so much love to you and all the family.'

‘It's complicated…I made different choice' – Single Lewis Hamilton, 40, opens up on love life and plans after retiring

LEWIS HAMILTON has opened up about making a "different choice" to prioritise "winning" in his Formula One career above all else. And that includes relationships, with the legendary Brit cementing his name as one of the best F1 drivers of all time. 6 Hamilton, 40, hasn't gone public with a girlfriend since his famous relationship with Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger. After having an on/off romance that spanned seven years, the former couple eventually called it quits in 2015. Hamilton 's love life has since been unclear, with the F1 star winning four of his seven world championships since their split. Most recently, rumours that he was dating pop singer Raye were sent into overdrive after her latest appearance in the Ferrari garage at Silverstone. But, in an interview with French publication RTBF, Hamilton said he has long since parked his love life, something which is 'very complicated' to balance these days. Put to him that it must be hard to also have a private life on the side, Hamilton replied: 'Yes, it's very complicated, especially in today's world. 'I see other drivers and I wonder how they manage it. Some have children, are married, have girlfriends. 'I went through that when I was in my twenties. I've made a different choice: I've decided to maximise the time I have here because it's shorter than you think.

The Ferrari driver added: 'Over the last ten years, I've concentrated on my performance. And when I retire, I'll be able to do what I want. Lewis Hamilton gives lucky F1 rival a lift home on his private jet 'I'll be able to devote myself to other things without constraints. 'As long as I'm competing, I'm concentrating on my health, my well-being, my mental health and my driving technique. 'I want to be the best engineer I can be and the best team-mate too. That's my main objective: I want to win.' Interestingly enough only TWO F1 drivers currently on the grid are fathers, with Max Verstappen recently joining Nico Hulkenberg in the dad's club. Hamilton mostly wants to win a record eighth world title with Ferrari, after joining the Scuderia from Mercedes at the end of last season. He added: 'My dream is to win a title with Ferrari. It's been a long time since that happened. 'Ferrari has all the ingredients to win, you just have to put it all together. That's what I'm trying to do behind the scenes with Fred Vasseur and the team.' 6 But Hamilton has suffered a challenging start to life as a Ferrari driver. His wait for a first podium with the team is ongoing while Charles Leclerc has pulled off that achievement five times this year, including at the most recent Belgian Grand Prix. Hamilton has done plenty of that, his tally of 105 Grand Prix wins unmatched, while he holds the title record alongside Michael Schumacher. Hamilton has also been in r umoured relationships with other celebrities in the past, including singer Rihanna, Rita Ora, Barbara Palvin, Winnie Harlow and Danielle Lloyd. In 2023 he was romantically linked with Colombian singer Shakira, but their relationship never went past the friend zone. 6

Despite his millions & mansions, Ozzy Osbourne NEVER forgot his humble beginnings

YOU could take the man out of Birmingham, but you could never take Birmingham out of the man. Despite his millions — and his mansions in Los Angeles and Bucks — Ozzy Osbourne never forgot his humble beginnings at 14, Lodge Road, Aston. 3 3 Remember his surprise appearance with Tony Iommi at the Commonwealth Games closing ceremony in 2022? He told me afterwards: 'Standing on stage in Birmingham, my home town, playing live — it doesn't get better than that.' Ozzy never lost his endearing Brummie accent, even ramping it up when he recalled the days of his youth. As I sat with him in one of his vast living rooms, he told me: 'Sometimes I go back to my old street. 'I heard the guy who lives in my old house charges people 400 quid to stay the night. 'I remember sitting on the steps at Lodge Road as a child and thinking, 'Isn't this a long road?'. Now my drive is bigger than that road. 'I think, 'My God, how did we live in that house?'. There were six of us kids, and mum and dad.' Ozzy pretty much hated his time at Birchfield Road School, Aston, where Iommi was in the year above. 'I couldn't hold a ruler,' he said before breaking into one of his infectious laughs. But he told how, one day in 1963, he strolled down Lodge Road with his blue transistor radio. Tearful Sharon Osbourne reads fans' touching tributes to beloved husband Ozzy as she joins family at funeral procession 'I heard She Loves You by The Beatles. That was it, I knew what I wanted to do.' When considering Black Sabbath, Ozzy said: 'We weren't a creation of some big business mogul saying, 'I know a singer from London and a drummer from Manchester'. 'We were four local lads who lived in the same area and had a dream, and it became bigger than our wildest dreams.' When they started out, Ozzy said the music scene was 'all about 'If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair'. 'But we were living in f***ing Birmingham, something I'm not ashamed of.' Thinking of all the riches that followed, he added: 'We've all gone our separate ways and we're not four crazy kids from Birmingham any more. We have wives, kids, families, houses.' But he never lost touch with where he came from. 'Egos will kill you. I just try to be as normal as I can,' he affirmed. 'I remember when I was an ordinary bloke. 'When my mother put food on the table, we didn't go, 'Oh, we can't eat that, it's got too much gluten or fat content'. 'We just ate what we got. I never got the chance to say, 'I don't like cabbage'.' On July 5, Ozzy returned to Brum for one last show in his old stomping ground. You could see how much it meant to the city's favourite son when he told the Villa Park crowd: 'Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 'You're all… special. Let's go crazy, come on!' 3
