The former Islander revealed she had been mugged on the streets of Shoreditch in London.
A man on a bicycle grabbed her phone out of her hand while she was walking.
She said she was, 'a little shaken,' at the time, but it appears she's much better now.

After taking some time to reflect on the situation, Alexandra released the below statement:
'I pray that the guy who stole my phone is able to make some money from my handset (if that was his intention), as clearly he is struggling to have to go to such measures.'
'I wish him nothing but love and light.'
She continued, 'I’m going to enjoy being a little further disconnected for the rest of today.'
'Tomorrow is one of the biggest days of my life, so I’m going to go for a walk and reflect on my journey and how it’s got me here.'
'I will count my blessings. I will seek the good in this situation. Time to switch off & replenish my energy because god knows I need it!'

In another statement, the reality star encouraged her followers to be careful around the Shoreditch area.
She said the same thing happened to a girl she knows a few weeks ago.
'I didn’t process it properly as I didn’t think it would happen to me… but it did.'
'Please be cautious guys, I’m so thankful it wasn’t my whole handbag/wallet etc and that a weapon wasn’t involved.'
'Apparently this is happening a lot around this area so PLEASE BE MINDFUL!!!'
