I am really shocked to read this www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6061061/Paul-Young-admits-20-year-old-burglary-Gino-DAcampo-hit-home-again.html - sorry a Daily Fail link.

For those who don't want to read the above, Gino D'Acampo burgled Paul Young's home in 1998 and was sentenced to 2 years in prison.

Shock Not a big fan of his or anything but wow....

Is this chocolate Paul Young or badly aged 80s Paul Young?

I didn't know Paul's wife died that is so sad.

It seems to me that Paul Young has been rather generous.

A person breaks into his home, the items he steals are never replaced - makes you wonder a bit what Gino did with the tapes - flicks fag butts on your bedroom carpet.

When that person then rings him up, he's actually kind to them rather than tell them so get to fuck - which must have gone some way to helping Gino’s career and why a lot of posters don’t actually know the backstory.

Yet when his wife dies, in his grief, he reflects it’s a sadness to him that tapes of her voice - which can’t be replicated ffs, that’s like having your wedding photos redone 12 years later - are lost forever.

Fair play to Gino for rebuilding his life. Silly if he thought Stacy’s death, especially so young, wouldn’t have a terrible impact on Paul. I’m hopeful Gino has made no comment on the Fail article, hope that continues.
