Vitória^[1] is a Portuguese telenovela produced by SP Television in collaboration with Disney and broadcast by SIC, simultaneously on Disney+. It premiered on 22 September 2025. The telenovela is an adaptation of the Turkish series Gülperi, created and written by Eylem Canpolat and Sema Ergenekon. Adapted by Cândida Ribeiro and Rita Roberto, it has the collaboration of Ana Casaca, Filipa Poppe, Gonçalo Pereira, José Pinto Carneiro and Miguel Rico.^[2] It stars Cláudia Vieira, Jorge Corrula, Vanessa Giácomo, José Raposo, Luísa Cruz, Afonso Pimentel, Joana Santos, Vicente Gil, Mariana Cardoso and Rodrigo Costa. Albano Jerónimo joined the cast in season 2.

Vitória struggles to protect her family when she finds out that her father-in-law, Manuel Mendonça, is a criminal who is willing to sacrifice family ties for the sake of his wealth and power.

After the tragic death of her husband, Vitória tries to shield her children from their grandfather's influence and prove the crimes of the tyrant Mendonça.

While defending herself from an attack by her brother-in-law, she ends up being arrested and loses custody of her children. Two years later, she gets out of jail determined to get Afonso, Beatriz, and Francisco back. But she is far from imagining that Manuel has managed to turn her children against her and that he will do anything to keep her away from the family.

With the support of João, a brilliant lawyer and her first love, Vitória will fight to win back the love and trust of her children and expose her father-in-law, putting the Mendonça empire at risk.

After the explosion in Spain caused by Manuel, everyone believes that Henrique died. In fact, he survived the incident that left him reprisals, and ran out of memory. Vulnerable, they use him to traffic drugs, under his new identity Xavier Ochoa. Eventually, Henrique ends up being arrested and during the following five years, he recovers his memory and is determined to fight for his innocence. When this happens, he is released.

Days before being free, contact Carolina and tell her the whole truth. In shock, Carolina is thirsty for revenge against Manuel - whose relationship would no longer be in its best days. The villain decides to ask her husband for a divorce and, to avenge Henrique, plots a plan to kill Manuel, gradually poisoning him.

Henrique, already free, decides to return to Porto, exactly five years after being presumly dead. The reunion with Vitória is devastating. Her unexpected reappearance shakes the fragile balance conquered by Vitória, who will have to face all the doubts and uncertainties that settle in her heart, now divided between past and present.

But the worst is yet to come. Carolina and Isabel prepare for the beginning of their alliance, united by the desire for revenge in a relentless strategy to definitively remove Vitória from her children. At the centre of the legal battle are Matilde, Afonso and Francisco - and all limits seem about to be exceeded. Henrique, manipulated by Carolina, will be a fundamental key to the plan.

Family conflicts intensify with disagreements about the custody of children, unbalancing the relationship between Henrique and Vitória. And when long-hidden secrets begin to emerge, the world of Vitória and her children threatens to collapse and, this time, not even João will be able to save them.
