Woman found safe and well months after disappearing from park
A woman who disappeared from a popular park in London was found safe and well, four months after she was last seen.
Portia Vincent-Kirby, 33, 'dropped off the face of the earth' after a night out with friends on February 21.
She was last seen in Hyde Park, before being spotted at a pub in Whitechapel a month later, but disappeared again soon after, with her family saying that she wasn't in her flat and hadn't accessed her bank card since early March, and didn't use her passport to leave the UK.
Despite not being seen for nearly four months, Ms Vincent-Kirby has since been found 'safe and well.' A woman who disappeared from a popular park in London was found safe and well, four months after she was last seen. Pic: Facebook
Metro, who previously shared several appeals for her whereabouts, reported that Ms Vincent-Kirby was found safe and well.
Her mother Janina previously spoke to the newspaper about her daughter's disappearance, saying that her family was 'bleeding quietly and inwardly' since her disappearance, and that she was 'dangerously close to imploding.'
'I was thinking, 'How can this all be? How can my child just vanish?'' Janina said. 'At one point I was dangerously on edge, and had to get away so I didn't become a mess.' Ms Vincent-Kirby vanished from Hyde Park in February of this year, and wasn't found until earlier this week. Pic: Facebook
Ms Vincent-Kirby's brother Max had also appealed for info on the whereabouts of his sister, saying 'She's got a masters' degree, she's an intelligent girl, she's not the kind of person who just vanishes.
'It's like she's dropped off the face of the earth.'
Ms Vincent-Kirby had previously worked as a legal PA and in public relations, and ran as a candidate for the Green Party in the 2019 General Election, receiving 1.7% of the vote.
