A VEGAN who played sounds of dying cows to diners during a demo is the daughter of a tycoon who made fortunes selling steak.

Morgan Kayleigh Giampaolo was among 20 Direct Action Everywhere activists who stormed Touro steakhouse in Brighton last week.

She was also at the group’s protest at a Hove Tesco where 34 activists stood in front of meat aisles wearing all black in mourning for the animals that had been killed.

Her dad David, 60, runs investment club Pi Capital and was on the board of Fitness First. His business interests also include Gousto, which sells posh ready-meals including “rump steak with butter beans and focaccia”.

In May, animal lover Morgan posted snaps at her dad’s wedding. She is also pictured patting a pig, and in clothes with vegan slogans.

She lives with her mum — David’s ex-wife Kendra McConnell — in East Sussex. Kendra, 51, confirmed Morgan attended last week’s protest but did not comment further.
