Debbie McGee is forced to move out of £3million Berkshire mansion as it floods ... trends now

Debbie McGee has been forced to flee her luxury home after flooding from the nearby River Thames caused thousands of pounds worth of damage, MailOnline can reveal.

The star's £3million home in Wargrave, Berkshire where she lived with her late TV magician husband Paul Daniels is under around 4ft of water after the Thames burst its banks last week.

Debbie, 64, has moved to a nearby flat which is being paid for by her insurance company after her home was left without power - with much of the furniture, carpets and interior destroyed.

High levels of water have also left the grounds submerged with the main gates at the entrance unable to close after the loss of electricity.

This is the second time in the space of a month that Debbie's home has been deluged. In January it was hit by flooding following heavy rain and wet weather, but she did not have to move out on that occasion.

She has spent the past few weeks overseeing work to clean and dry out the property and just as it was completed, it was hit by flooding again following the recent wet weather.

A friend told MailOnline: 'Debbie's had a terrible time. When her home was flooded in January, the water went very quickly and just as she finished all the work to sort things out and get herself straight, it's flooded again.

'But this time it's a lot worse. There's a lot more damage, much of the inside of the house has been destroyed, particularly the ground floor and there's no power. She can't live in it, but the insurance company have been very good with helping her out.'

The friend added: 'They've put her in a lovely flat close to her home and are paying the rent. She's actually quite enjoying it there despite the state of her own home.'
