Valerie Mewes (2 August 1931 – 9 January 1955) better known by the name Vicki Martin, was an English model.

Mewes gained fame as a result of her relationship with the Maharajah of Cooch Behar and the manner of her untimely death.

She was ‘discovered’ by Stephen Ward, one of the central figures in the Profumo Affair, and was best friends with Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be executed in the United Kindom.

The car in which Mewes died was being driven by the writer Terrence Anthony Robertson.
