Kendall Jenner’s alleged stalker has been found sitting outside her house – twice in a week.
John Ford was arrested last month for breaking into a gated community which has been home to the likes of the ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star, Britney Spears, Slash, Christina Aguilera, Paris Hilton and Charlie Sheen, and was ordered to stay 1,000 feet away from the estate after pleading guilty to trespass.
However, the 37-year-old Canadian – who is said to have always had his "sights set on" Kendall – scaled the mountainside at the back of the complex last week, where there is no security, and was spotted by the 22-year-old model’s team sitting in her backyard by her pool.
Police were called but Ford had gone before they arrived.
And on Tuesday (16.10.18), the man allegedly came back and got in via the unsecured mountainside again and was spotted by security on Kendall’s front porch. This time, police arrived and arrested him.
Ford is now being held on a 5150 psychiatric hold and has been charged with criminal trespass and violating a protective order.
Kendall’s lawyer, Shawn Holley, is believed to be working to also obtain a civil protective order.
This isn’t the first time Kendall has had a problem with unwanted visitors to her home.
In August 2016, she came face-to-face with Shavaughn McKenzie in the grounds of her Hollywood Hills estate and she later admitted she "felt bad" having to testify against him because she was unsure if he realised he had done anything wrong.
She said: "Is it like, weird of me though, that I feel bad for him?
"I don’t think he’s mentally there. I don’t even know if he can control what he’s doing. Like, he thinks what he’s doing is normal and fine."
And she later added: "Being in the public eye is pretty crazy, just because people actually feel like they know you, and they get very caught up in it. And they don’t realize that they don’t actually know you.
"That was my scenario. So when he came into my house, he thought it was OK. He literally talked to me like I knew who he was."
As the court date grew closer, the brunette beauty admitted she felt "freaked out" by the hearing, but eventually faced her fears – and found the experience wasn’t as terrible as she expected.
But Kendall also admitted she still felt bad for the stranger, who she was eventually given a five-year restraining order against.
She said: "I hate that someone said online that ‘Kendall has an obsessed fan.’ A fan loves you, wants an autograph, a picture. He’s just, like, obsessed.
"It’s really sad. I was on the verge of tears the whole time because I felt bad for him.
"Even though it’s necessary right now, it makes me sad… [but] it’s definitely necessary to protect myself, because I don’t know what anyone is capable of doing.
"I don’t know what’s happening in the universe."
