I've just learned from a post on Facebook that Beatrice from French Caf? Bistrot sadly passed away suddenly on Saturday 24 July. The caf? is raising funds to assist Beatrice's parents support her 10 year old daughter. They are taking donations in person at the caf? or via their bank account, the details of which are in their Facebook post: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=4163203860384186&id=152354891469123

This is so very sad. My thoughts are with Beatrice, her daughter and her family.

Donation on its way.

Thank you for your post, Nicmitch.

She was stabbed at her home around 10pm. She was rushed to Kings but sadly died soon after admittance. Her ex-husband has been arrested and is due to go on trial at The Old Bailey in October. The whole thing is just so tragic. However, I do wonder why he was carrying a knife in the first place! Was it with intent or just something he always had on him? I guess all will be revealed at his trial. My heart goes out to her family, especially her 10 year old daughter who will have to live with the horror of this. It's just heartbreaking.

Two women a week are killed by a current or former partner in England and Wales alone. ONS 2019.

How do we prevent this in the future?

She didn't sadly pass away, she was murdered, stabbed to death (and as heartblock says very probably one of the 2 female victims per week who lose their lives in domestic violence). My deepest sympathies to her loved ones and friends.
