Victoria Amelia Hampton-Chavez (born 6 March 1989) is an American contralto, former audiologist, socialite and heiress to US$500 million fortune of her late maternal grandmother Amelia Vega Hayes, a secret millionaire; and the heiress to the US$4 million fortune of her father, tech magnate Alon Hampton. Despite her father's notable life and career, Hampton-Chavez chose not to be in the spotlight until the revelation of her maternal grandmother's fortune in 2018. Before then, she was privately known in socialite circles along the West Coast.

Personal life, family and marriage
In 2008, Hampton spontaneously dated William Hochul III, the son of New York governor Kathy Hochul. They met at a party in New York City and secretly married. The marriage was annulled a month later. In 2018, Hampton gave birth to a boy, Zander Hampton, after a one night stand while on the Ember of the Sea cruise ship. He was born in Plano, Texas. Her son's father declined to be involved in his life. Subsequently after marrying Chaz Chavez, Hampton's son was legally adopted by him via stepparent adoption. Hampton's son's surname was altered to Zander Hampton-Chavez.
