A violent attacker has admitted robbery after leaving a Bridgerton actress 'concussed and traumatised' when seizing her phone.
Zacariah Boulares, 18, carried out the theft from rising star Genevieve Chenneour as she sat in the Joe & The Juice cafe in Kensington, west London.
The Algerian national pleaded guilty to stealing the phone when he appeared before Westminster magistrates in central London today.
He also pleaded guilty to common assault against Carlo Kurcishi, another customer in the same cafe, as well as a separate charge of theft after taking a black leather handbag at a pizza restaurant.
Magistrates were told he had 12 previous convictions for 28 offences, all relating to theft.
