Premise: Fears were growing last night for the safety of a 'distressed' mother who has disappeared with her disabled nine-year-old daughter. Florist Jude Richmond, whose customers include the Royal Family, was last seen carrying cerebral palsy sufferer Millie Whitehead-Richmond as they left home on Sunday night. Mrs Richmond, 41, was said to have been devastated after splitting from her husband and business partner, Nicholas Richmond, earlier this year.  Police believe she became increasingly depressed after the split. She is said to be in a 'very vulnerable state of mind' at the time of her disappearance.
Hypothesis: Florist Jude Richmond, whose recent customers include the Royal Family
