What Happened To His Father?

On 25 May 2022, Ace Ecclestone’s father Bernie Ecclestone was arrested for illegal possession of a firearm. He was arrested by Brazilian authorities for illegally carrying a firearm while boarding a private plane to Switzerland.

In his luggage, an undocumented LW Seecamp .32 gun was discovered during an x-ray screening. He acknowledged owning the gun but said he was unaware it was in his luggage at the time. He paid bail and was freed to travel to Switzerland.

Speaking about his arrest, Bernie said: “I got it a few years ago from someone in Formula One and we thought it might be a good idea for Fabiana to have it in her handbag in case of a robbery to scare someone off”.

He added: “I actually don’t think it would have been much use. The sort of people who might want to rob us may have had guns a lot bigger than this little thing.” He said that he had the gun in his luggage after he jokingly pretended to detain one of his employees.

He said: “I was mucking about with the gun at home. I was pretending to arrest somebody, one of the guys who rides the horses. “I put it into my shirt pocket and took the shirt off. I left my things on the bed to be packed and in it went. I never used it, or carried it. It had no bullets.

“They scanned the luggage then called me to look through the suitcase — they said they couldn’t open it until I got there — and we spent ages trying to find it. Eventually I found it.”
