    “Jack and Sasha had only just moved in and are looking forward to building a life there.
    “It’s difficult for them knowing that the culprits haven’t been caught yet and may never face justice, but they’re keeping their head up.
    A source said: “His post is a display of strength — both for himself and his fans.”
    Jack and childhood sweetheart Sasha had moved in just five days before the burglary after tradesmen finished renovations.

    What is Stargardt disease?Stargardt disease is a rare, inherited eye condition caused by fatty material building up on the macula — the small part of the retina needed for sharp, central vision.
    The gene involved, ABCA4, helps process the breakdown of vitamin A inside the eye. If the gene is faulty, toxic byproducts of vitamin A build up in the light-sensitive cells in the eye, which then corrode and die.
    It usually causes vision loss in childhood and adolescence and symptoms can include sensitivity to light, grey, black,or hazy spots in the centre of vision, and colour blindness.
    It affects one in 10,000 people and there is no treatment or cure for the disease. More
