A young woman connected to the British royal family has been found deceased in what authorities are describing as a non-suspicious incident.
Rosie Roche, 20, was discovered at a private residence on July 14. Reports indicate a firearm was located near her. The discovery was made by immediate family members.
Officials have stated no other parties are believed to be involved in the death. Plans for a private family service have been announced.
This loss marks another period of grief for the extended royal circle. Earlier this year, Thomas Kingston, the husband of another royal family cousin, died in a separate incident also involving a firearm. That death was similarly ruled non-suspicious by investigators.
At the time of Mr. Kingston’s passing, a statement from Buckingham Palace conveyed the royal family’s sorrow and requested privacy for the bereaved.
The family of the young woman recently found has asked for respect and space as they mourn this private tragedy.
