THIS is the incredible moment a Bridgerton star fought off a thief who swiped her mobile in a cafe.

Zacariah Boulares swiped the device from Genevieve Chenneour as she sat in Joe & The Juice in Kensington, South West London.

The brave actress, who played Clara Livingston in the third season of the Netflix period drama, bravely attempted to stop the teen escaping.

Astonishing footage from police shows Genevieve grabbing Boulares' shoulder as she realises her phone has been taken.

She then tackles the serial thief to the ground with the help of another customer.

Genevieve managed to take her phone back from Boulares before repeatedly hitting him with it in the posh cafe.

She previously claimed she suffered a concussion in the horror in February and said even her dog was "traumatised".
