Model Tamara Ecclestone's husband Jay Rutland was mugged and injured by two hooded men.

The robbery took place July 17 when Rutland was getting out of his sports car in Wanstead, here.

The thieves took away his Rolex watch worth 50,000 pounds and a gold bracelets worth 20,000 pounds at knife point, reports thesun.co.uk.

Rutland, an ex-city trader, was taken to the hospital for facial injuries treatment. He has been discharged, but is taking his own time to heal with Ecclestone by his side.

"He's very shaken up. He got a bit of a beating. She is comforting him," a source said.

 

However, Rutland managed to snatch one of the men's mobile phone, which helped in getting hold of the robber.

The man has been identified as Sammy Aibangee, 21, of East Ham, East London and has been charged with robbery and possessing an offensive weapon.
