Perhaps. I would bet he isn't married though. With the inquisitive nature he's been viewed by all three of them one would hope they'd notice a ring on his finger. Especially Kelly. She would definitely key on that being the observant lawyer she is.
Kelly did notice. "Looks like you were married before. Is your wife here, too?"
Victor: "No."
"Got any kids?"
He never replied to that, so it's entirely feasible that he's got family there that he's looking after. Also, don't forget that there's more than wife and kids. There's parents, siblings, friends, etc.
I recall Victor telling Fernando to go outside and point his weapon at Michael. Victor then comes out and says he'll take over from here. Victor also asks Fernando if he's heard anything from Marcus yet to which Fernando replies "no". Fernando asks if they should take the group in,....Victor replies by saying that they should let this group go and that Marcus doesn't need to know about this. I posted a thread on "theories" about Victor and who he could possibly be,...what are his motives?
No problem. I also noticed the tone in which he said, "No". Like there was more to it than just a straightforward negative. In the regular non-zombified world, I'd take it to mean either that they're estranged or she died recently, but in the zombie world - and especially in The Colony - I dunno.
Now that I've relistened to it and know it exists as opposed to before...It sounds like his wife is indeed dead, but its a raw wound that hasn't had time to heal. Sort of like how Lizzy was right after she arrived at the Tower. But it's not the same level of relationship as a marriage. Her relationship with biker dude was lashing out at Daddy dearest. She obviously dealt with it just fine when she got herself reattached to Saul...she needs a shrink for herself to figure out her Father Figure issues.
For someone who just lost a family member, Kelly SHOULD have known better. If Victor was married or had kids, they were killed prior to the Colony. Remember, he says "I" got here later.
I don't think Marcus really has anything on him. Victor just realizes that however bad the colony is, it's way better than being alone during the zombie apocalypse.
