Hollywood actor and comedian Jack Whitehall has admitted stealing to stealing as much as he can from hotels, including light bulbs and batteries from the TV remote. The telly joker revealed that he 'inherited" his bizarre habit from his mother Hilary, who stole from hotel rooms for decades.
He also noted that despite his successful TV and movie career, he cannot stop himself from pocketing stuff from hotels. “I stride into the bathroom thinking, ‘If these b******s are going to charge that much for Pringles and Wi-Fi, those shower curtain rings are coming with me.'” “But thanks to my mother’s influence, I’ll take anything. Shower mats, light bulbs, linen, batteries from the television remote.”Whitehall revealed that he wishes the first part of his stand-up career “didn’t exist in public” as he finds his old self “objectionable”.
