A “loving mother” of two has died after being stabbed in Melbourne’s south-east.

Monique Lezsak — who had dreams of becoming a police officer — worked as a disability carer, and held a diploma in beauty therapy.

She was found dead by police in an Endeavour Hills home about 7.30am on Tuesday.

Ms Lezsak’s distraught ex-partner and father to her twin children, Jye Carter, described her as “the most beautiful person”.

“She’s achieved a real lot in her life,” he told the Herald Sun. “She was just a really good mum. I can’t believe this has happened, I really can’t.”

Lezsak’s current partner was taken to the Alfred Hospital under police guard with serious upper body injuries. He remains in hospital in a critical condition.

One of Ms Lezsak’s nine-year-old twins was taken to Monash Hospital with minor injuries.

The homicide squad is investigating and collected evidence from the home today.

Police earlier said an altercation occurred between a man and a woman known to each other.

Police are not looking for anyone else over the incident.
