Missing mum with newborn baby 'has ties to Royal Family' and is related to wealthy landowners

A new mother who went missing with her partner newborn child is from a wealthy, landowning family. Police are concerned that Constance Marten, 35, has the financial resources to survive indefinitely as they enter a fifth day of trying to trace her.

Constance, and her partner Mark Gordon, disappeared after the car they were travelling in broke down on the M61 near Bolton, Greater Manchester, on Thursday evening, before leaving on foot.

It has now emerged Constance's aristocratic family owns land in Dorset and 'has ties with the Royal Family'. Greater Manchester Police have said they are extremely concerned for Constance and her baby as it's thought neither have been examined by medical professionals since the birth of the baby boy.
