Vegan activist who played the sounds of cows being slaughtered in a Brighton steak-house is the daughter of a millionaire meat merchant

A vegan activist who stormed a steak house and Tesco meat aisle is the daughter of a millionaire meat selling CEO.

Morgan Kayleigh Giampaolo raided the Touro steak house in Brighton to play animal slaughter noises to diners last week.

She also attended a Tesco in Hove with 'Direct Action Everywhere' as they held a 'silent disruption' event, standing in the meat aisle with signs saying: 'It's not food it's violence' and graphic images of abattoirs while mothers pushed toddlers past them in prams.

Morgan's father, American businessman, David Giampaolo runs Pi Capital and is Chairman of Gousto, where customers can buy steak, sausage and lamb.

Customers can order 'recipe boxes' online and receive four recipes of their choosing for £47.75; recipes include 'Moor-ish Lamb & Sweet Potato Tagine,' Sausage Burger & Sweet Onion Mayo,' and 'Venison, Fondant Potato, Carrot Purée & Shallot Jus.'

According to the Sun, Morgan attended her father's wedding this year and lives with her mother, David's ex-wife, Kendra McConnell, in Hove. 

Last week Direct Action Everywhere entered Touro Steakhouse in Brighton and got into a chanting match with a carnivorous stag party who yelled back 'Stand up if you love meat.'

Members of the stag party, including a £250 'Oompa Loompa impersonator', started chanting back at them and even persuaded fellow diners to join in. 

Most of the diners at the Brazilian-themed restaurant appeared unmoved by the protest and carried on talking and eating, even when the activists played the noise of a cow being killed and shouted 'It's not meat, it's violence' repeatedly.
