Officers from West Yorkshire Police are now appealing for information to trace Fielder-Civil after he failed to answer bail at a police station last Thursday, March 28.

"I came back from the toilet and realized it was gone," Leia told The Sun newspaper. "We looked on CCTV and watched the man. I couldn't believe anyone could sink so low."

She said the following day a man came into the pub and gave her the passport which had also been taken. "He said, 'I've been told to give this to you'. I asked about the money. He said, "You'll never get that back,'" she added.

The couple married in Florida in May 2007 – two years after they first met – but their relationship was often the subject of controversy and was marred by drug taking and violence.
