TV CHEF Marco Pierre White’s son has been arrested on suspicion of stealing $350,0000 worth of cash and jewellery from a pal.
According to The Sun, Celebrity Big Brother star Marco Pierre White Jr, 21, was held overnight over the raid at the businessman’s AU$6 million penthouse.
A passer-by who saw his arrest in Chelsea, West London, on Sunday said he seemed “embarrassed†to have been spotted.
The onlooker said: “The officer then put him in handcuffs.â€
Pierre-White Jr was quizzed at a nearby police station on suspicion of theft.
He is expected to be bailed as cops probe further.
The Sun told last week how a “drug crazed celeb†ransacked the victim’s safe on August 30.
Hell’s Kitchen star Marco, 54, is believed to have introduced his son to the businessman.
It is claimed they met several times before Pierre White Jr was invited to his Chelsea home for a party which allegedly turned into a two-day orgy with a prostitute and crack cocaine.
Pierre White Jr caused controversy recently by romping with fellow CBB housemate Laura Carter.
The Met Police confirmed a man, 21, was arrested on suspicion of the theft.
