Their relationship started off happily, they married and moved to Falmouth in Cornwall. However, it quickly descended into a nightmare marriage of psychological manipulation, coercive control and emotional abuse - all from the woman who was supposed to love him. Rob's life was gradually destroyed as Victoria extended a web of lies around him, manipulating, suffocating and isolating him from the outside world. It was only through his baby daughter, Grace, that he found the courage to leave Victoria. But even then, Rob could never really escape, and Victoria continued to haunt and torment his life. In fact, her actions became more and more extreme, culminating in approaches to several different men with requests to help her murder Rob NO Originally published: 2023 NO Includes bibliographical references CN 362.8292 SN 9781399603836 K1 Parkes, Rob K1 Breeden, Victoria K1 Husband abuse K1 Psychological abuse K1 Attempted Murder : Great Britain K1 Violence psychologique K1 Tentative de meurtre - Grande-Bretagne K1 Family and Relationships K1 Ehepaar : Täterin : Emotionaler Missbrauch : Häusliche Gewalt : True Crime
