Friends called him “The Captain,” and he passed away.
The King and Queen’s close friend Ian Farquhar passed away in his cottage on the monarch’s Highgrove Estate.
Not only was Farquhar a legendary hunter in Britain, but he was also renowned for his superb company and wicked sense of humour.
In addition to serving as the Queen Mother’s equerry, Farquhar was a captain in the cavalry regiment of the Queen’s Own Hussars.
Having spent many years living at Highgrove in a farmhouse he rented from the Estate, he was close to both the King and the Queen.
According to reports from Highgrove, he passed away early on Wednesday.
Andrew Parker Bowles, the first husband of the Queen and a close friend, talked with Richard Eden of The Daily Mail.
He claimed that Farquhar’s health has been deteriorating in recent months and that his departure was “very sad.”
He stated of Farquhar that he was “wild as a hawk in his youth, but always great fun.”
