Victoria Hart, a 33-year-old British mother of three originally from Solihull, tragically lost her life on 24 January in the Spanish town of Alhaurín el Grande, located in Andalusia between Marbella and Malaga. Known for her dedication to her children and her community, Victoria’s death is being investigated as a possible case of gender-based violence, according to the local council. However, the BBC has not independently verified reports of any arrests related to the incident.
Friends and neighbors remember Victoria as a devoted mother and tireless businesswoman. Maxine Hill, a close friend who lived in Alhaurín el Grande and knew Victoria well, described her as “fantastic in every sense of the word.” Hill emphasized Victoria’s relentless work ethic, noting, “Victoria did not stop working and those kids had everything they could possibly want, and they deserve to still have that.” To support Victoria’s children in the wake of this tragedy, Hill has established a GoFundMe page aimed at providing financial assistance for their immediate needs.
Victoria moved to Alhaurín el Grande with her family in 1999, settling in what is described by the town’s tourist board as a picturesque area offering views over olive groves, fruit orchards, and market gardens in the Guadalhorce Valley.

Hill recalled, “Any sort of expat or British-speaking person over there, you automatically become friends with,” highlighting the close-knit nature of their group, especially among Victoria, her sister Jemma, Hill, and another mutual friend.
Professionally, Victoria was the owner of multiple beauty salons called Victoria Hart Hair and Beauty in the town.

Currently, Victoria’s children are being cared for by family members who have taken on full financial responsibility for their day-to-day care. Funds raised will be allocated to meet essential expenses such as food, clothing, and utilities to help provide some stability during this difficult time. Meanwhile, a spokesperson from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office confirmed that the UK government is supporting Victoria’s family and remains in contact with Spanish authorities.
