In a tragic turn of events, Lady Gabriella Kingston’s husband Thomas Kingston passed away at age 45 by suicide. Gabriella, who is the second cousin of King Charles III, revealed the details of her husband’s sudden death during an inquest at Gloucestershire Coroner’s Court. She expressed that Thomas had never shown any signs of suicidal ideation and attributed his impulsive action to an adverse reaction to the medication he was taking. Thomas was prescribed sertraline and zopiclone for anxiety and trouble sleeping, which he later stopped taking due to adverse effects.
The court heard that Thomas’ father, Martin Kingston, believed that Thomas’ death, three weeks after starting medications, could not be a coincidence. Both Thomas and Martin were licensed gun owners, and the decision to take his life was made quickly, apparently prompted by the gun Thomas was returning to his parents’ home.
Lady Gabriella emphasized the need for greater awareness of the side effects of medications like the ones Thomas was taking to prevent similar tragedies in the future. She described her marriage with Thomas as deeply loving and trusting, adding that he had never expressed severe struggling. A medical expert also explained in court that the medications Thomas was taking could have had a catastrophic effect in a short period of time.
The royal family, including Prince William, attended Thomas Kingston’s funeral to pay their respects to the beloved late individual. The family released a statement mourning his passing and asking for privacy during their time of grief.
