A young Swedish woman in her 20s, she comes off as distant and standoffish, ignoring her fresh cup of coffee in a Stockholm hotel lobby. But her voice cracks when she talks about her "dearest Anders".
From a small town in Sweden, she is doing everything she can to obtain an easing of Breivik's prison conditions: he has spent the past four years in isolation at a high-security penitentiary.
He is currently serving a 21-year sentence, which can be extended if he is still considered a danger to society.
Breivik killed 77 people on July 22, 2011, when he set off a bomb near the government offices in Oslo and then opened fire on a Labour youth summer camp on the island of Utoya.
For Victoria, Breivik's isolation amounts to "torture".
"I care even more about him now that he is in such a vulnerable situation," she says.
Unemployed because of health issues, she writes to him to help boost his morale - so far more than 150 letters - or sends him small gifts, including a dark blue tie he occasionally wore during his trial.
