The 33 year old appeared at the Old Bailey on Friday charged with murder, and was remanded in custody by Judge Simon Mayo KC until a further hearing on December 1, when she will enter a plea.
On Monday, the victim’s identity was revealed for the first time, a week after the grisly canal discovery.
Last week, prosecutor Louise Oakley told the Old Bailey that police had first been called to Mrs Nour’s home in Feltham after family concerns about her welfare.

Reporting restrictions which had banned identification of the pair’s relationship were lifted by Judge Simon Mayo KC today (August 14) following submissions by the media.
Concerns for the welfare of a person were raised in a home in Northumberland Crescent just after 10.25pm on August 6.
While no one was found inside the property, officers discovered signs of a disturbance.
Chief Superintendent Sean Wilson, local policing commander in west London, said: “This was a shocking incident and my thoughts are with the friends and family of Karima Nour.”
