The devastated family of a model alleged to have been murdered by her boyfriend have remembered her as an ‘incredible mother’ as they vow to bring her justice.
Shereen Kumar, 43, was found dead in bushland four minutes away from her Dural home, in Sydney’s northwest, on Saturday afternoon, bringing a four-day search to an end.
Hours later, police arrested her boyfriend Vincent Carlino, 37, and charged him with domestic violence murder.
Ms Kumar’s ex-husband Gurpreet Beehan, who is the father of her two kids, told Daily Mail Australia the family are ‘heartbroken’ and will ‘ensure’ she gets the justice she deserves.

He said Ms Kumar was a ‘strong woman’ who was devoted to their children, and her death had created a hole in their lives that would never be filled.
‘She was an incredible mother to our kids and she will be missed forever,’ Mr Beehan said.
‘No one can replace a mother and this [alleged] crime has left us all devastated.’
Shocked friends have flocked online to pay tribute to the ‘beautiful and kind soul’ whose life was tragically cut short.
‘I am in complete shock. Sending my condolences to her family,’ one friend wrote, ‘RIP Shereen.’
‘Rest in peace angel such devastating news to wake up to,’ Jess Terry said.
‘My weekly dog walks definitely won’t be the same without you! The most beautiful and kind soul gone way too soon, you’ll be forever missed.’
‘Very sad today, this is devastating,’ another friend posted.

Vincent Carlino (pictured) told Daily Mail Australia earlier this week that he was ‘extremely worried’ about his missing partner, 43-year-old Shereen Kumar. He’s since been charged with her murder
‘Rest In Peace Shereen Kumar.’
Carlino told police Ms Kumar was last seen leaving her home on Taylors Road, in Dural, in her pyjamas at about 9pm on Wednesday.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia earlier this week, Carlino said he was ‘extremely worried’ about his missing partner.
After days of searching, detectives found a body matching the woman’s description just in bushland off Laurie Road on Saturday at 5.50pm.
A crime scene was established, which is still teeming with specialist forensic officers. The body has not yet been formally identified, but police believe it is Ms Kumar.

Just after 11.30pm on Saturday, police arrested Mr Carlino at the home he shared with Ms Kumar.
He was taken to Hornsby police station and formally charged with murder (DV). He was refused bail to appear in Parramatta Bail Court on Sunday.
Mr Carlino earlier told Daily Mail Australia he saw Ms Kumar leaving their home about 9pm on Wednesday. He alleged she left wordlessly and hadn’t been seen since.
‘She left and didn’t take her phone or the van,’ he said. ‘I’m extremely worried.
‘I’ve told police all of the places I think she could be.’
Mr Carlino and Ms Kumar took over as the franchises of the Hornsby Mad Dogs & Englishmen pet walking service in October last year.
Ms Kumar has since become the Director of the Chatswood Mad Dogs and Englishmen franchise while Mr Carlino runs the Hornsby business.
The couple’s businesses appeared to be booming with Ms Kumar just last week issuing a recruitment post for a ‘hardworking, trustworthy and reliable’ dog walker in a local group chat.

‘We operate Monday to Friday with most walks conducted between 7.30am to 3pm,’ the post reads.
‘This role is perfect for individuals seeking flexibility or for those who require stable and long term employment.’
According to her social media profiles, Ms Kumar finished a degree at Western Sydney University in 2015 before launching her own HR business.
She is also a model, frequently posing for Sydney photographers and gracing the pages of magazines, including French fashion publication Malvie and Amsterdam-based Selin Magazine.
Earlier this month, she participated in a shoot for Australian creative group Hunter Creative, wearing a warrior-princess style costume and clutching a sword.
