Stephanie Shojaee has said that she was allegedly robbed during her summer vacation.
In a series of posts on her Instagram Stories on Saturday, Aug. 1, The Real Housewives of Miami star, 41, claimed that the villa she had been renting in the South of France had been broken into.
The businesswoman’s first post saw her walking up the steps to her private jet with the caption, “Cannes and St Tropez are great.. until it’s your turn to get ROBBED 😭😫.”
This was followed by a screenshot of what appeared to be footage from a home security camera. In the image, a figure dressed in all-black could be seen standing outside the villa with their face covered.
“Come to south of France, they said,” wrote Shojaee. “Rent a villa, they said.. It’s a great idea, they said..”

Shojaee then claimed that her belongings were taken during the incident, alleging that masked men “came into my room and went shopping in my closet,” per Us Weekly.
“Oh look! There goes my stuff! And they even took half [of] my [real estate company Shoma Group] merch. WTF!” she said in a later post, according to the outlet.

In a video shared to her Instagram Stories on Sunday, Shojaee went on to share a glimpse at the safe in the villa, which appeared to be inside a closet.
“This crappy little safe? Useless! They open it with the same override cables they use at hotels when you forget your code!! Especially if someone tells them what safe it is…from the inside,” she claimed.
