Claudia Schiffer

London, March 18: Claudia Schiffer has been plagued by a stalker at her £5 million home in the Suffolk countryside for the second time in little more than a year.

An unemployed 21-year-old French-Canadian was arrested four times last week after repeatedly leaving letters for the German-born model and trying to speak to her at Coldham Hall in Stanningfield, near Bury St Edmunds.

Officers were first called after Louis-Alexandre Brisette knocked on the door of the Grade One, 16th century mansion on Monday last week and asked to speak to the 33-year-old model. After Brisette was arrested for the first time he was charged with harassment and appeared in court on Saturday.

After being bailed, he went straight back to Schiffer’s home, which she shares with Matthew Vaughn, her film producer husband, and their 14-month-old son Caspar, and was arrested yet again before being handed over to the immigration service, which deported him to Canada on Tuesday as an illegal immigrant.
