Constance Marten & Mark Gordon: The Death of Baby Victoria

About this episode

Bethan explores the tragic case of Constance Marten and Mark Gordon, who vanished with their newborn daughter, leading to a nationwide manhunt in the UK.

This week on Seeing Red, Bethan takes the reins solo to untangle the disturbing and deeply tragic case of Constance Marten and Mark Gordon. In early 2023, the aristocrat-turned-fugitive and her convicted rapist partner vanished with their newborn daughter, Baby Victoria, triggering a nationwide manhunt that gripped the UK. As the couple travelled across the country attempting to evade police and social services, questions mounted: why were they running, what were they hiding, and where was the baby? What followed was one of the most unsettling and heartbreaking investigations in recent memory. Bethan explores the backgrounds of both Marten and Gordon, the strange journey that led them underground, and the devastating discovery that shocked the nation.
