Prince Harry, Prince William's Cousin Found Dead With "Firearm Nearby": Report
Ms Roche, 20, was the granddaughter of Princess Diana's uncle and a second-year English literature student at Durham University. She was preparing for a trip with friends when her mother and sister found her body at the family home, PEOPLE reported.
A representative for Durham University said that she "will be sorely missed."
A Wiltshire and Swindon coroner has opened an investigation, deeming the death "non-suspicious" and noting no indications of "third-party involvement." The subsequent session of the inquest is set for October 25.
On July 19, The Yorkshire Post published an obituary for Ms Roche. "Darling daughter of Hugh and Pippa, wonderful sister to Archie and Agatha, granddaughter to Derek and Rae Long," it read.
There will be a private family funeral for her, followed by a memorial service.
In February 2024, Thomas Kingston, the husband of Lady Gabriella Kingston, was found dead at his parents' residence in a Cotswolds village in England with a gunshot wound to the head. He was 45 and was once romantically linked to Pippa Middleton, the sister of Kate Middleton.
Kingston's death was characterised as "impulsive" and "unexpected" during a pre-inquest examination, per the BBC. According to an earlier statement from a coroner's office spokesperson, Kingston died due to a severe head injury. Officially, his death was determined to be a suicide.
Lady Gabriella, 43, said in her heartbreaking witness testimony that she believed her late husband's "impulsive action" was probably caused by the medication he was receiving in the weeks before he died.
Officials stressed they were unrelated and that no such connection should be drawn.

Truck driver Harjinder Singh fails English and road sign tests after fatal Florida Turnpike crash; online backlash intensifies
Harjinder Singh, the truck driver involved in a deadly Florida highway crash that killed three people, has come under scrutiny after failing basic English language and road sign assessments. Singh, an Indian national, was tested by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) following the fatal collision and was found to have significant deficiencies in his ability to communicate in English and understand U.S. road signage. The incident has sparked renewed debate over immigration enforcement and commercial licensing standards in the United States. Harjinder Singh failed English language and traffic sign assessments According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, Harjinder Singh scored just 2 out of 12 on an English proficiency test administered by FMCSA after the crash. When shown four common highway traffic signs, Singh could correctly identify only one. These results raised questions about how he was able to obtain commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) in both California and Washington, despite not meeting the required language or safety standards. Authorities also confirmed that when Singh was previously stopped in New Mexico for speeding, the English Language Proficiency (ELP) test was not administered as required. This oversight, combined with failures by multiple state licensing agencies, is being investigated. X erupts with backlash X lit up with backlash as users expressed outrage over Singh's licensing and immigration history. One user wrote, "Anyone who's ever taken a CDL written test will tell you that It's impossible to legally get a CDL without being proficient in English. Someone gave him a CDL without ever taking a test." Anyone whos ever taken a CDL written test will tell you that It's impossible to legally get a CDL without being proficient in English. Someone gave him a CDL without ever taking a test. "This is idiotic. Why the actual f**k would you give a license to someone who can't read English?" another enraged user added. This is idiotic. Why the actual fuck would you give a license to someone who can't read English? Check out more reactions below: From experience, I can attest that many of these foreign-born CDL blatantly disregard everything about our country, especially safety standards. They will do the bare minimum to get paid. They do not care about America. Lots of stories. All those people who allowed this person to get behind a wheel need to be held accountable. Those responsible for the license must be severely punished! This is the social morality of antiwhiteism at we replace it with a White positive social morality it will work for good like it does for evil now. Accident occurred on April 12 on a Florida highway The fatal crash happened on April 12 when Singh attempted an illegal U-turn across a Florida highway using a cut-through designated for 'Official Use Only.' Singh's tractor-trailer blocked all four lanes of traffic. A minivan, unable to brake or swerve in time, collided at full speed with the trailer, killing three people. Singh is now facing criminal charges related to the incident, which authorities say could have been avoided if proper safety and licensing checks were in place. Singh entered the U.S. illegally and received work permit in 2021 Singh is believed to have entered the United States illegally in 2018. He was detained at the border and released on a $5,000 bond in January 2019 after claiming fear of persecution if returned to India. While his application for a work permit was denied under the Trump administration, records show that he was granted a permit in 2021 under President Biden's administration. These facts have fueled political debate, with California Governor Gavin Newsom's office and the Department of Homeland Security publicly disagreeing over Singh's immigration status and the licensing failures. Singh remains in immigration proceedings and could face deportation Harjinder Singh has been in ongoing immigration proceedings since 2019. Following the crash and failed assessments, he now faces renewed calls for deportation. Federal authorities are investigating how Singh acquired multiple CDLs despite failing to meet federal and state qualifications. The case has added to criticism of current immigration and transportation safety oversight, particularly concerning commercial drivers operating large vehicles without sufficient training or legal status.
