Boris Johnson's 'previously owned' and weird bed being flogged on eBay A bed that has supposedly been previously owned by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson is being flogged on eBay for less than £1,000 - though the seller has not said how long ago Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson (Image: STEFAN ROUSSEAU/POOL/AFP via Getty Images ) A bed allegedly once owned by Boris Johnson is up for grabs on eBay for less than £1,000. The seller of the vintage bed, described as "a true piece of history", claims it was previously owned by the former Prime Minister, though they have not disclosed when. The winner of the online auction will reportedly be able to relax in the same style as the ex-PM, perhaps even enjoying a mid-day nap as he is rumoured to have done during his time at Number 10.

Vintage Tufted Upholstered Bed - Previously Owned by Boris Johnson Being sold on Ebay (Image: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156591323821 ) The luxury bed is listed at a starting price of £975.72, but potential buyers will need to arrange collection from North West London. The item is described as "previously used" with "some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended," reports the Mirror. Attempts to reach out to the seller and a representative for Mr Johnson by The Mirror were unsuccessful. The same eBay user is also selling a 19th Century miniature French rosewood commode in Louis XV style, Dior sneakers, Louis Vuitton ballet slippers, and a range of GCSE study books published circa 2017. Other items include an electric shiatsu foot massager and several special illustrated editions of Dan Brown novels. No other items included in the sale are noted as having been previously owned by Boris Johnson. Following the release of his book last year, the beleaguered ex-Prime Minister has occupied himself with penning a newspaper column on varied topics such as cheese and Easter Island statues, alongside taking part in the odd speaking event. Just last week, Carrie, his wife, shared a humorous clip of him being nipped by an ostrich during their family trip to a safari park in Texas. In the footage, uploaded by Mrs Johnson to Instagram, we see the ostrich amble towards the car as Mr Johnson is seen hugging one of their excited children. The scene swiftly shifts from quaint to chaotic when the bird lunges, leading to Mr Johnson crying out "ow" as it seems to gently nip at his hand.
