'Prolific Thief' Who Targeted Bridgerton Star, Blind Couple in London Sentenced to Prison

  • Bridgerton actress Genevieve Chenneour was targeted in February 2023 when Zacariah Boulares snatched her phone at a Joe & the Juice café in Kensington, west London.
  • Boulares, 18, committed a series of thefts and assaults in wealthy London areas, committing multiple offences including those at Pizza Pilgrims and Five Guys.
  • In court footage, Chenneour bravely confronted Boulares, reclaimed her phone, struck him with it, and her then-boyfriend Carlo Kureishi helped detain him before he was released.
  • On Tuesday at Isleworth Crown Court, Judge Martin Edmunds KC handed Boulares a 22-month prison sentence related to an assault charge and multiple theft offenses, highlighting his repeated targeting of diners for easy valuables.
  • Following the ordeal, Chenneour moved out of London, experiences intense anxiety, altered routines including avoiding public transport, and faces profound emotional, practical, and professional impacts.
