Kate Rothschild's rapper boyfriend Jay Electronica branded a £30k home wrecker

Kate Rothschild’s rapper boyfriend Jay Electronica has been thrown out of his rented home and has left more than £30,000 damage in his wake, neighbours claim.

Jay had been living in a £2 million property in leafy Wimbledon, South-West London – a deal thought to have been arranged by banking heiress Kate.

But now the father of one has moved to Belgravia – much to the relief of his former neighbours.

Making a mess: Kate Rothschild's boyfriend Jay Electronica has been thrown out of the £2 million property in leafy Wimbledon, South-West London he was renting, leaving more than £30,000 worth of damage

‘He was kicked out of the house and it has taken workmen three months to repair the damage that he caused,’ a source in the street tells me.



‘We certainly won’t be forgetting him any time soon. He left the house in a complete state – he did £30,000 worth of damage.

'His dog would also be barking all night and he would wake us up with his motorcycle.’

Another neighbour adds: ‘Jay was very lively. He had a Harley-Davidson that he would rev up at 3am.

'I would also see that posh girlfriend of his come and go, and his Alsatian would bark all the time, which drove people mad. This should be a quiet street so he set a lot of tongues wagging.’

High profile divorce: Kate was married to financier Ben Goldsmith for 11 years and they have three children together

According to a third source, Jay, 37, left an undisclosed sum of money to cover the repair bill but that the amount is insufficient.

‘He painted the walls in different colours and put mirrors up everywhere,’ the property’s new tenant reveals. 'The whole house had to be repaired for three months before we moved in.’

Jay has been dating Kate since 2010, but has never lived in the Kensington house that she shares with her three children from her 11-year marriage to financier Ben Goldsmith.



The marriage ended in 2011 after Kate’s affair with Jay was discovered.

A spokesman for letting agents Hamptons International said: ‘The landlords want to forget the whole episode.’

The Mail on Sunday made repeated requests for a comment from spokesmen for Jay and Kate, but they failed to respond.

Grayson Perry has devised a way to give lots of artwork to charity – by designing a signature ceramic animal he donates specially for good causes.



‘I always give a little animal for charity auctions. It used to be a dog but I’ve upped my game – now it’s a lion,’ he explained at the Royal Academy’s Schools Annual Dinner and Auction at London’s Burlington Gardens.
