Coleen was allegedly targeted after losing a camera at a concert that contained private pictures of her 15-month-old son Kai. The sum demanded was somewhere in "five figures".But police were tipped off and the trio - two men and a woman - were arrested in September in a sting operation.
Coleen was with Wayne, 25, at a Black Eyed Peas gig at Manchester's MEN Arena in May last year when she accidentally left the camera in a £2,500-a-night private box. It is believed an extortion gang grabbed Coleen’s camera after she put it down on a table in the hospitality suite during the concert nine months ago.
The police later arrested two men, aged 28 and 41, and a woman aged 25 in a dramatic swoop.
All the suspects were quizzed before being bailed pending further inquiries until March 9. It is not known whether the camera has been recovered.
The couple’s spokesman Ian Monk said: 'Wayne and Coleen take their son’s privacy very seriously but they cannot say anything else at this stage as the matter is the subject of a police inquiry.’
