THE PARENTS of six-year-old Southport knife attack victim Bebe King paid a heartbreaking tribute to her yesterday, revealing their older daughter Genie had witnessed her sister’s killing before managing to escape.

Lauren and Ben King said they were proud that Genie, nine, had “shown such incredible strength and courage” since the horrific attack, which saw three youngsters lose their lives.

They described her resilience as “a testament to the love and bond she shared with her little sister.” And they said they “will continue to support her as we navigate this painful journey together as a family”.
