Queen Camilla today joined 500 mourners at a memorial service for her friend Ian Farquhar, after the renowned horseman and legendary hunting figure died aged 78.

Captain Farquhar’s daughter Rose, whom Prince William dated in 2000, was also at the service in Badminton, Gloucestershire, with her husband George Gemmell.

William and his ‘first love’ Rose remain friends, and he attended her wedding to former professional polo player Mr Gemmell in nearby Tetbury in December 2022.

Captain Farquhar who was also close friends with King Charles III, previously lived on the monarch’s Highgrove estate in the county where he rented a farmhouse.

The Old Etonian was found dead at his home near Chippenham in Wiltshire by his carer on the afternoon of March 6 after struggling to breathe, an inquest later heard.

This afternoon, Camilla attended the service to remember him at St Michael and All Angels’ Church on the Badminton estate which is owned by the Duke of Beaufort.

Other mourners included Queen Camilla’s ex-husband, Andrew Parker Bowles. He was not accompanied by new love Anne Robinson.
