A heartbreaking tragedy has struck the royal family, as Prince William and Prince Harry mourn the unexpected loss of their cousin, 20-year-old Rosie Roche.
Rosie, the granddaughter of Princess Diana’s uncle, was discovered deceased at her family’s home in Norton, England, on July 14. According to The Sun, her mother and sister made the devastating discovery, with a firearm reportedly found close to her body. She had been packing for an upcoming getaway with friends at the time.
Authorities have ruled out foul play, with Coroner Grant Davies stating the death is being treated as non-suspicious, indicating there was no third-party involvement. While an official cause has yet to be confirmed, the circumstances suggest a possible suicide.
Rosie was a student at Durham University, studying English Literature. Her obituary, published by The Yorkshire Post, describes her as a brilliant and loving sister who will be deeply missed. The family plans to hold a private funeral and memorial service in her honor.
This deeply saddening loss comes as a reminder of the silent battles many young people face. Rosie’s death has left a void in both her close-knit family and the extended royal circle.
🕊️ Rest in peace, Rosie.
