Constance Marten and Mark Gordon are due to be sentenced at the Old Bailey today after being found guilty of the manslaughter of their newborn baby girl.
The couple, 38 and 51, prompted a nationwide manhunt — alongside global interest — after they went on the run from authorities in 2022, when Marten was heavily pregnant. Their first four children had been taken into care, and by living off-grid in a tent, they hoped to avoid their new daughter, Victoria, from following the same fate.
