Victoria Starmer
Victoria, Lady Starmer (née Alexander; born 1973 or 1974), is a British occupational health administrator and former solicitor. She is the wife of Keir Starmer, who has served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom since 2024 and as Leader of the Labour Party since 2020.
Born in London, she studied law and sociology at Cardiff University, where she was president of the student union. She has been a supporter of the Labour Party since at least her student years. After qualifying as a solicitor, she worked at the law firm Hodge Jones & Allen, focusing on cases related to street crime. She later moved into occupational health, working within the National Health Service (NHS).
Starmer married her husband, Keir Starmer, in 2007. The couple have two children. After her husband became prime minister, it was reported that Starmer was expected to keep a relatively low profile, and will reportedly continue in her role at the NHS.
Starmer was born Victoria Alexander in either 1973 or 1974 in London. Along with an elder sister, she was raised in Gospel Oak, London. Her father, Bernard, an economics lecturer and chartered accountant, was born in 1929 to a Polish-Jewish family that emigrated to the United Kingdom prior to the Second World War while her mother, Barbara (who died in 2020), was a community doctor in the National Health Service who converted to Judaism upon marriage.
Alexander was educated at Channing School in Highgate, London, and later studied law and sociology from Cardiff University, where she served as president of the student union. After graduating from university, Alexander qualified as a solicitor and worked for the law firm Hodge Jones & Allen, specialising in street crime. At some point after her marriage, she stopped practising law and began working as an occupational health worker for the NHS.
Alexander met Keir Starmer, then a senior barrister with Doughty Street Chambers, while working on the same case. The pair became engaged in 2004 and married on 6 May 2007 on the Fennes Estate, just north of Bocking, Essex.
The couple have two children: a son (born 2008) and a daughter (born 2010); both are being brought up in their mother's Jewish heritage and culture. The family observe Shabbat and are members of the Liberal Jewish Synagogue in north London.
Starmer is a vegetarian. Until moving to 10 Downing Street, the family resided in Kentish Town, north London.
