Sister-in-law Kerri Kirby said: “She hasn't spoken to any of her friends, her phone hasn't been used, bank cards haven't been used.

“There were no warning signs that this was going to happen – it's out of the blue.

“She has struggled with mental health in the past, that's the only sort of red flag, but nothing else.”

Ms Kirby is described as being around 5ft 9 and “very slim”.

Her last known hair colour was dyed bleach blonde, and she was last seen wearing a fur hat. She is also known for frequently wearing baseball caps.

Kerri has asked anyone who may have any information about her whereabouts to get in contact with family or friends.

Her brother Max, who lives in Wigmore, said previously: “Portia is from Medway and has extremely strong links in the area.”

Today (June 1), loved ones met up at St Pancras station at around 11.30am wearing clothing with her image printed on them.

They have split up and spent the day searching around London for her.

Kerri said: “We're all in our t-shirts just to try and promote her face. We're just clutching at straws on anything, but someone else might have seen her.”

Those with information about Portia's whereabouts are being urged to contact the Met Police and quote reference 01/7262039/25.
