An aristocrat, Constance Marten, and her boyfriend, Mark Gordon, allegedly went on the run with their newborn daughter, Victoria, camping off-grid in the depths of winter before the baby’s lifeless body was found wrapped in a plastic bag under a pile of nappies in a shed, as revealed in court today.

Marten, aged 35, and Gordon, aged 48, are currently facing charges of killing their baby daughter in rural Sussex between January 5 and February 27. The heartbreaking discovery of Victoria’s remains sparked a massive search operation involving hundreds of police officers from both the Metropolitan and Sussex police, along with dedicated search and rescue volunteers. The relentless search covered a vast 90 square miles of land.
