They 'blamed everyone else' after tot froze to death

- By Paul Jeeves Crime Editor

AN aristocrat with close links to the Royal Family and her rapist lover have both been jailed for 14 years for killing their newborn baby.

Constance Marten, 38, and Mark Gordon, 51, were said to have tried to "blame everyone but themselves" for the death of Victoria.

They let her freeze to death in a tent in subzero temperatures, on the South Downs, in January 2023.

The pair had gone on the run with Victoria after their four other children were taken into care.

Marten gave birth in secret after social workers intervened amid allegations of domestic abuse by convicted sex beast Gordon, in a case that has cost taxpayers £2.8million.
