Berkeley Homes heiress hunted by police ‘for assaulting two officers’

The heiress to the £310million Berkeley Homes empire is being hunted by police after allegedly assaulting two police officers.

Chloe Pidgley, 26, is said to have attacked the officers just four days after he ex-boyfriend was jailed for beating her up at her home in Earl’s Court, west London.

A warrant was issued for her arrest yesterday after she failed to attend Westminster Magistrates’ Court over her alleged assault of PCs Calum Jackson and Jake Harris.

Pidgley is yet to enter a plea in relation to the charges, while no details of the alleged incident were heard in court.

Ms Pidgley’s ex-boyfriend Antonio Henry was jailed in March this year for beating her up at her home in Earl’s Court, west London.

He hurled a chair and an oil radiator at a terrified Ms Pidgley, and slammed a door on her hand as she tried to flee, leaving her with two broken fingers. 

Pidgley claimed that Henry ‘wouldn’t leave her alone’ when she broke off their four-month relationship. 

On the day of the attack, she heard a smash at her home in Earl’s Court and found Henry standing in her bedroom when she went to investigate.

Judge Hannah Duncan jailed Henry for 21 months after he admitted assault and criminal damage at Isleworth Crown Court.

Ms Pidgley, who was in court to see Henry sentenced, broke down in tears as the judge passed the sentence.

Henry has a long history of convictions dating back to 2003 mainly for offences of violence including assault causing actual bodily harm.

His record also includes offences of battery, harassment, threatening words and behaviour and conspiracy to supply class A drugs.

On-the-run heiress whose grandfather gave her a £1m coming of age present but whose life has spiralled into chaos 

Chloe Pidgley – whose grandfather recently gave her a £1million ‘coming of age’ payment – is currently on the run after allegedly assaulting two police officers.

It’s alleged to have come just four days after her ex-boyfriend was jailed for beating her up at her home in Earl’s Court, west London.

Miss Pidgley, 26, was left ‘screaming and crying’ after being attacked by convicted thug and drug dealer Antonio Henry, 29, who burst into her Earl’s Court home and punched and kicked her in the face.

Both Chloe and her model sister, Chantelle, reportedly received a ‘coming of age’ sum of £1million each

Her mother, Denize Hewitt, had revealed that her receptionist daughter called for help mid-attack

He also threw a chair at her, and slammed a door on her hand as she tried to escape, breaking two of her fingers.

Henry then threatened to come back and carry out an acid attack in the assault last June.

 Her mother, Denize Hewitt, 53, said her receptionist daughter call for help during the attack.

She told The Sun: ‘She screamed down the phone. I dialled 999. I thought she would be dead.’

She was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

After the vicious assault the granddaughter of Berkeley Homes founder Tony Pidgley, urged other victims of domestic violence to seek help.

The 26-year-old told the Sun on Sunday: ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone.

‘I want to encourage others in abusive relationships to get help before things escalate.’

A Met spokesman had said at the time: ‘Police were called at 20:05hrs on Monday, 18 June to a residential address in Warwick Road, Kensington and Chelsea, following reports of a female resident having been assaulted.

‘Officers attended with LAS [London Ambulance Service] colleagues.

‘The victim had been at home at the time; after hearing a smash, she went to her bedroom and discovered a 29-year-old male, who was known to her, had broken into the premises.

‘The male then attacked the victim before fleeing the scene.

‘The victim was conveyed to a central London hospital where her injuries were deemed not life-threatening or life-changing.’

Tony Pidgley: The boy adopted by travellers who grew up to found the UK’s largest housebuilder

Tony Pidgley has earned close to £115million in the last 16 years as the founder and now chairman of leading housebuilder Berkeley Homes.

However he had a very humble upbringing, having been born in 1947 in Surrey to a single mother. 

His early years were full of hardship, and he spent his early life living in a disused railway carriage.

A former Barnado’s boy who was adopted and raised by travellers, Pidgley left school at 15 to start his own haulage business.

During his childhood, he also worked with his adoptive parents cutting down trees and selling the logs.

He sold he haulage firm when he was 19 and co-founded Berkeley Group in 1976, while he was still in his 20s, which he developed into a FTSE 100 high-flyer.

Pidgley’s wealth is widely seen in the City as just rewards for entrepreneurialism and risk-taking, whereas many other chief executives are seen as managers who have hauled in excessive rewards.
