It has been revealed Mr Eriksen, 61, and the Ms Fenwick were in a relationship.

Friends have since remembered Ms Fenwick as “beautiful person” who would go out of her way to help others.

The 61-year-old was an active member of the local community, campaigning for health and parking spaces.

Tenants who have lived at the building for about a year, Jason and Juan Sugiharto, told NCA NewsWire they didn’t hear or see anything on Sunday night.

They said the area was “generally very safe” and only found out about the stabbing on Monday morning.

The pair said it makes “them feel strange” but they still feel safe as this has “never happened before”.

He faced Parramatta Bail Court on Monday, where he did not apply for bail and it was formally refused.

Mr Eriksen will return to court on April 20.
