Lady Elizabeth Kerr He was 68 years old and died after a short illness days after attending the coronation of King Carlos III with his wife, Camila Parker. In whose ceremony, her husband, Richard Scott, was going to play an important role, who was going to be in charge of carrying the scepter with the cross to the altar during the ceremony in Westminster Abbey.
Confirmation of the descent did not come from the King Charles III but it was the executive president of Buccleuch who notified the sad news in a statement that includes “The Times”. Right there, he noted that the duchess “was the most wonderful and life-giving spirit and our hearts go out to the family as they come to terms with their loss.”
Lady Elizabeth Kerr (Duchess of Buccleuch and Queensberry) was born in 1954 and married Richard Scott in 1981, where the couple had four children and would eventually have eleven grandchildren. She was one of Scotland’s best-loved women for driving art, in which she founded the Walter Scott Prize for Historical Fiction, a major literary accolade.
Undoubtedly, the death has saddened the King Charles III and all his family. In addition, there is concern on the part of the entire entourage since until then it is unknown if the Duke of Scotland will participate in the coronation. Also, there is still no word on what time and when the final dismissal of the Lady of Buccleuch and Queensberry will begin.
At the moment, from Buckingham Palace they have not issued any statement from King Charles III offering comfort to the royalty of Scotland. Coming at the last moment, Duke Richard Scott must be preparing to send his wife away forever, Lady Elizabeth Kerr.
