The tragic loss of Edward Pettifer has deeply affected the Royal Family, highlighting personal connections and shared grief.
New Orleans: So, there’s been this really sad news about Edward Pettifer, who was killed in a terror attack on New Year’s Day. It’s hit the Royal Family pretty hard.
King Charles and Prince William found out about it through official channels, and you can imagine how tough that must have been for them. Edward was the stepson of Tiggy Legge-Bourke, who was a beloved nanny to William and Harry.
Tiggy was like a big sister to them, always there during tough times, like their parents’ divorce and after their mom, Princess Diana, passed away. She was a comforting presence in their lives.
She even attended both of their weddings, and her son was a page boy at William and Kate’s wedding. It’s a close-knit connection that makes this loss even more personal.
King Charles is really saddened by Edward’s passing and has reached out to the family to express his condolences. Kensington Palace has also been in touch with them.
Prince William and Kate are feeling shocked and heartbroken too. They, along with Edward’s family and the families of the other victims, are just devastated by this terrible event.
