Metro reports that Katherine was mugged after confronting a gang of girls who was attacking an elderly lady on King’s Road in Chelsea.

After stepping into help, she was then mugged herself.

Katherine was on her way to the Straubenzee Memorial Charity Carol Service, where she performed just hours after the ordeal.

The carol service was attended by Pippa and Carole Middleton, sister and mother respectively of Kate Middleton.

Reports claim that Katherine helped police identify the attackers.

Subsequently, two 15-year-old girls were arrested on suspicion of robbery.

For Katherine, the show goes on as she prepares for her festive show at Royal Albert Hall on December 12 entitled Christmas with Katherine Jenkins and Friends.
