Camilla, Duchess Of Cornwall Weeps As Brother Mark Shand Is Laid To Rest Following Tragic Death
May 1st 2014, 16:14

The Duchess of Cornwall's brother Mark Shand sadly died last Wednesday after he fell and hit his head after attending a charity fundraising party in New York and he has now been laid to rest, in a private ceremony held at Holy Trinity Church in Stourpaine, Dorset.

As mourners gathered to say their goodbyes to the 62-year-old at the service, following the tragic incident, Camilla was seen understandably wiping away the tears alongside Charles, her son Tom Parker Bowles and her daughter Laura Lopes.

Camilla's father Major Bruce Shand's funeral was also held at the same church in 2006.

Following Mark's shocking death last week, a spokesperson for Clarence House said: "It is with deep sadness that we have to confirm that The Duchess of Cornwall's brother, Mark Shand, has today passed away.

"Mr Shand died in hospital as a result of a serious head injury which he sustained during a fall last night."

They added: "The Duchess, The Prince of Wales and all her family members are utterly devastated by this sudden and tragic loss."

"Mark Shand was a man of extraordinary vitality, a tireless campaigner and conservationist whose incredible work through The Elephant Family and beyond remained his focus right up until his death."
