Police are renewing their appeal for help tracing Portia Vincent-Kirby, a 33-year-old woman from Finchley, who has now been missing for over three months.
Portia was last seen by friends around 8.45pm on Wednesday, 21 February 2025, after she left a gathering in Hyde Park. It is believed she headed toward Victoria Station, but has not been in contact with friends or family since.
She was officially reported missing on March 13, and since then, Metropolitan Police officers have been trawling CCTV footage and following up on possible sightings across London and Kent, where she is known to have links.
Last Confirmed Sighting in Whitechapel Pub
The most recent confirmed sighting was on May 14, when Portia was seen inside the Blind Beggar pub in Whitechapel. Police have released a CCTV image from the pub in an effort to jog public memory.
Family’s Emotional Plea
Portia’s mother, Janina Vincent-Kirby, issued a heartfelt appeal:
“We are all very worried as Portia is very vulnerable. She has not been in contact with any family or friends since February.
We appeal to anyone who may know anything to please come forward. Portia, if you see this, please reach out to someone you trust.”
Police Concern Growing
PC Harjinder Kang from the Met’s North West Missing Persons Unit said:
“We are growing increasingly concerned for Portia’s safety. This behaviour is out of character, and we are turning to the public for help.
If you have seen her or know where she might be, please get in touch.”
