In an interview with the Independent, Victoria, a former Bury Grammar School for Girls pupil whose father passed away in 2020 and had denied the allegations of physical abuse, recounted: "He got me up against the pantry door, his hands around my neck. My best friend was there, shouting at him to get off me."
Victoria also recalled an incident in which her mother, Pauline, went to the doctor after suffering a broken rib. "The doctor's note just read: 'Husband trouble,'" Victoria claimed.
