In the footage, three men were seen walking away with items they stole from his residence.

Though left devastated, the thespian said that he was grateful that his passport and watches were with him.

“On the first day I landed in Capetown, thieves broke into my villa and stole all my stuff. Thank God I had my passport and watches with me,” he said.
