Jenson Button wife thief jailed after £250k heist
Mourad Aid has been sentenced to three years in prison for stealing a suitcase worth £250,000 from Brittny Button, wife of F1 champion Jenson Button. Additionally, he received a four-month sentence for handling the stolen goods after pleading guilty and being sentenced at Inner London Crown Court on May 30, 2025. Brittny was left ‘traumatized’ by the theft, which included sentimental jewelry and items from her daughter’s birth. Aid committed the opportunistic crime in February, with Button caught on CCTV footage assisting a chauffeur as the theft occurred. Following the incident at St. Pancras International Train Station, Aid was swiftly arrested in the Hatton Gardens jewellery district and pleaded guilty in court, prompting praise for police efforts in solving the case. Despite the theft, Jenson Button continues his racing ventures, participating in various series and making appearances as an F1 pundit, with his focus shifting to the upcoming 24 Hours of Le Mans.
