Liz took to Twitter to share the heartbreaking news, thanking fans for their support in what she described as an “appalling time” for the family.

She wrote: “My 21 year old nephew was repeatedly stabbed in a brutal attack in London on Thursday night. The police & hospital are being fantastic.

“Thank you for all your messages. It is an appalling time for him & our family. The police will be appealing for witnesses.”

Miles, who is the son of her Liz’s sister Kate Curran, has modeled for the likes of Dolce & Gabbana.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed two men were attacked by a group who got out of a vehicle and set upon them in Ascalon Street.
