Jennifer shared: “My phone has just been stolen by a lady in Booths Carnforth. She put it in her bag after she left the toilet.
“There are a lot of sentimental photos of my family. I am offering a reward of £500 if handed over. For any information please contact me here.”
Jennifer shares sons Bobby, Harry and Charlie with husband Rob Tickle.
She is best known for her role as Emily Shadwick in Brookside, but will next be seen in Celebrity SAS Who Dares Wins.
The star revealed she decided to take part because she had been off TV for so long, but compared the experience to being more painful than giving birth.
She said: “[It is] the most excruciating, excruciating, going to hell and back thing you can do.
“And then to get the most amazing reward at the end that stays with you for life and changes you as a human being, changes you as a person.”
Acknowledging her reasons for taking part, she added: “I wanted to do it because I hadn’t done anything for so long.
“I had this kind of break from what I grew up and love to do, and I kind of lost my identity a little bit.
“So the opportunity came up and I just thought, ‘I’m going to grab it with both hands and see if I can still do my thing.’
“It was more of a challenge for me personally, to see if I could test myself and remember who I was and the fire that I had within me.”
Along with Jennifer, the full cast includes Callum Best, Towie stars Pete Wicks and Ferne McCann, Love Island champion Amber Gill and former EastEnders star Maisie Smith.
