A devastating loss for Harry and William – With heavy hearts, we announce the passing…

Lord Robert Fellowes, a trusted figure to Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana, died at 82.

He was heavily involved with the British Royal Family and was Prince William and Prince Harry’s uncle. Fellowers was married to late Princess Diana’s sister, Lady Jane Spencer. The couple had three children together, Alexander, Eleanor, and Laura.

Lord Fellowes served as the private secretary to the late Queen during the 1990s, a period marked by significant challenges, including the divorce of Princess Diana and then-Prince Charles. It was also the time when Fergie and Prince Andrew’s marriage came to an end, and Princess Anne’s marriage to Mark Phillips dissolved.

He was heavily involved in managing the crisis with the fire of Windsor Castle that destroyed 115 rooms in 1992.

Lord Fellowes held the position when his sister-in-law, Princess Diana, died in the tragic car crash when she and her partner Dodi Fayed, the son of Egyptian billionaire Mohamed Al-Fayed, her driver Henri Paul, and her bodyguard Trevor Rees-Jones crashed the Mercedes in the Pont de I’Alma tunnel in Paris while trying to escape the paparazzi.

After the deaths of Diana Dodi Fayed, Lord Fellowes strongly refuted allegations made by Mohamed Al Fayed, Dodi’s father and the owner of Harrods, who claimed that Fellowes was part of a conspiracy to murder the couple.

Lord Fellowes’ obituary revealed he had died on July 29 of undisclosed causes, as per The Times.

Lady Di‘s brother, Charles Spencer, paid tribute to his brother-in-law posting on the social media.

“My absolutely exceptional brother-in-law, Robert, is no longer with us,” he wrote on X.

“A total gentleman — in all the best meanings of that word — he was a man of humour, wisdom and utter integrity. I’m deeply proud to have been his brother-in-law.”

Lord Fellowes’ father, Sir William “Billy” Fellowes, served as the land agent at the Royal Family’s Sandringham Estate for 30 years. Remarkably, it was also the place where Lord Fellowes was born.

“Robert is the only one of my private secretaries I have held in my arms,” late queen Elizabeth once said, per The Times.

Lord Fellowes was honored with the title of Baron Fellowes of Shotesham in the County of Norfolk.
