Amber Haigh’s Mysterious Disappearance: A Personal Look at a Troubling Story

Amber Haigh was just 19 when she vanished back in 2002, leaving her 5-month-old son, Ben, with Robert and Anne Geeves, this older couple who took care of him. But there’s a whole lot more to this, and it’s pretty wild.

So, Amber had been dating the Geeves’ son, Robbie, for a while, but they broke up. Even though they split, Amber stayed in contact with the Geeves family. Robbie moved on and started dating someone else, but his parents, especially his mom, Anne, decided Amber should come live with them again. Robbie wasn’t cool with this, but his parents didn’t really listen to him.

Then, not long after, Robbie saw Amber pregnant, which was a shocker. Turns out, his dad Robert was the father of Amber’s baby, Ben. This messed Robbie up big time, and he tried to distance himself from his parents after that.

Weird Family Dynamics

Amber wasn’t in the best situation, especially since she had some intellectual disabilities and didn’t really have a stable family. After she had Ben, she did a photoshoot with him and the Geeves family. But then, she disappeared. That’s when things got shady.

The Geeves claimed they drove Amber to a train station so she could visit her dad, but she never showed up where she was supposed to be. The police started investigating, and rumors began flying that Robert and Anne wanted to keep the baby without dealing with legal stuff, so they might’ve gotten rid of Amber.

Trouble from the Start

Amber didn’t have it easy growing up. She had a tough childhood with a dysfunctional family and was even kicked out of her great-aunt’s house due to some family drama. Robert, who started having a relationship with her, was accused of sexual abuse. Amber’s room in the Geeves’ home wasn’t in great shape either, just a mattress on the floor and no other furniture. That says a lot about how they treated her.

Even though Anne claimed Amber thought of her as a mother figure, Amber’s actual life there seemed pretty bad. People around said Amber was mistreated by the couple. Some even believed the couple killed her and fed her to pigs. Yeah, I know, it’s disturbing.

The Court Case and Verdict

Robert and Anne were charged with Amber’s murder, and for years, they stayed in jail. But in 2024, after reopening the case, the court couldn’t prove they murdered Amber since her body was never found. The couple was let off after a 28-day trial, even though a lot of people still think something fishy happened.

Even the court said Amber never got the love and care she deserved. She was neglected, and her life was full of abuse and trauma. The whole case just makes you think about how some people get caught in messed-up situations, and it’s heartbreaking.
