Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya, popular TV personalities, faced a challenging incident during their recent trip to Italy. While in Florence, their passports and belongings were stolen, leaving them stranded
Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya, a celebrated TV star couple known for their extensive travels around the world, recently encountered a distressing incident during their trip to Europe. The couple, who are admired for their vibrant social media presence showcasing their globetrotting adventures, faced an unexpected setback in Florence, Italy. In an unfortunate turn of events, their passports, documents, and all their belongings were stolen, leaving them in a state of distress and helplessness.
The Incident in Florence
On the 10th of July, 2024, what was meant to be an idyllic sojourn in Florence turned into a harrowing experience for Divyanka and Vivek. As revealed in an interview with ETimes, the couple had arrived in the city with plans to stay for a day. During an inspection of a property, they left their belongings in a car parked outside. Upon their return, they discovered that their car had been broken into, and their passports, wallets, money, shopping items, and other valuables had been stolen. Vivek recounted, “Aside from this incident, everything on this trip has been incredible. We arrived in Florence yesterday and planned to stay for a day. We went to check out a property for our stay and left all our belongings in a car parked outside. However, when we returned to collect our belongings, we were shocked to find the car broken into and our passports, wallets, money, shopping items, and all our valuable items gone. Luckily, they left some of our old clothes and food items.”
A Struggle for Assistance
The aftermath of the robbery was exacerbated by the lack of assistance from local authorities. Vivek detailed their futile attempts to seek help from the local police, who, due to a lack of proper evidence, refused to provide the necessary aid. He further highlighted a significant challenge: police stations in Florence close at 6 PM, and no help is available beyond this time. This compounded the couple's difficulties as they also struggled to reach the embassy, which had already closed for the day.
A Grateful Homecoming
Despite the distressing circumstances, Divyanka and Vivek found solace and support through the Indian Embassy. In a heartfelt collaborative post on Instagram, they announced their impending return to India and expressed profound gratitude for the overwhelming love and support they received from their fans and the invaluable assistance provided by the Indian Embassy. Their post read: "We are returning to India soon. We want to thank you for your overwhelming love and support. A special thank you to the Indian Embassy for making our 'homecoming' possible."
