Former British Olympian Kelly Sotherton reveals that her Commonwealth gold medal from Melbourne 2006 has been stolen.

Former British heptathlete and 400m sprinter Kelly Sotherton has revealed that her 2006 Commonwealth gold medal has been stolen.

The 38-year-old, who has a bronze Olympic medal to her name, appealed to her Twitter followers to help find the medal that she was given for winning the heptathlon in the Melbourne Games eight years ago.

She uploaded an image of the medal alongside the message: "Been burgled...one thing stolen was my commonwealth gold medal from Melbourne 2006... PLEASE RT HELP ME FIND IT."

Sotherton retired from the sport in May 2012 prior to the London Olympics following back surgery.
