Episode 2187: The Richie Allen Show Monday February 9th 2026

15 years ago, Victoria Haigh's daughter told her that her father was sexually abusing her. Incredibly, the girl was taken away from mum and her father was handed sole custody of her. Victoria was accused of coaching the child and being an emotionally abusive mother. A couple of years later, she was sent to prison for breaching a no-contact order after accidentally bumping into her daughter at a service station. Victoria was pregnant at the time, with her second daughter Sapphire.

She and Sapphire spent six months in a mother-and-baby unit at New Hall prison near Wakefield. After her release they moved to France where Victoria returned to her career as horse-trainer. In 2021 she was handed bombshell information. She learned that UK Athletics had banned her ex-husband for life for grooming a minor! He had remarried in February 2015 but weeks after the wedding he began sending explicit messages on Facebook to a schoolgirl he had met at Doncaster Athletic Club. The girl reported the situation to her PE teacher, who in turn informed the safeguarding teacher at her school.

Victoria has launched a YouTube channel 

It's called Mother's Nature  - How state family court systems remove children and silence mothers. 

She has also written to MP's - including Rupert Lowe - to offer her advice on grooming gangs and why local authorities are failing children.
