A True Gentleman and Friend

It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Captain Ian Farquhar, a dear friend of the king and a highly respected figure in the equestrian world. Captain Farquhar, aged 78, had a long and remarkable life, leaving behind cherished memories and a legacy that will not be forgotten.

Captain Farquhar’s relationship with the royal family spanned many years. He was known to King Charles and Queen Camilla personally, and his connection with the monarchy dated back to his time as a rider for the Queen Mother. With his exceptional skills as a horseman, Captain Farquhar could ride and hunt with remarkable finesse, having served in the Queen’s Own Hussars.

The passing of Captain Farquhar is particularly difficult for the king, who is already battling cancer. This news follows the recent loss of Lord Rothschild, adding yet another blow for His Majesty. The king’s circle is deeply saddened by this double loss, and our thoughts are with him during this difficult time.

In addition to his close association with the royal family, Captain Farquhar’s family had their own special connection to the monarchy. His daughter, Rose Farquhar, had the delightful opportunity to spend time with Prince William in 2000 during one of his breaks from school. Together, they enjoyed a delightful picnic in the picturesque Gloucestershire countryside.

For as long as anyone can remember, Captain Farquhar had been renting a farmhouse on King’s Highgrove in Gloucestershire. This beautiful setting became the backdrop for countless treasured memories for Captain Farquhar and his loved ones.

Stephen Parker Bowles, who was married to King Charles II’s first wife, spoke to the Daily Mail about Captain Farquhar’s illness. It was evident that he had been suffering, and the news of his passing was shared early Wednesday morning. Bowles lovingly reminisced, describing Captain Farquhar as someone who possessed wild energy in his youth while always bringing joy and laughter to those around him.
