Breaking news: Prince Harry Mourns Tragic Loss Involving Ex-Girlfriend Cressida Bonas..See more

Prince Harry is facing a deeply emotional period following the death of Pandora Cooper-Kay, the sister of his ex-girlfriend Cressida Bonas.

Pandora, who was just 51 years old, passed away on July 22 after a long and arduous battle with cancer.
Her death marks the end of a 24-year struggle with the disease, including a recent diagnosis of an inoperable brain tumor.

Pandora Cooper-Kay’s death notice described her as the “beloved daughter of the late Edmond Cooper-Key and Lady Mary Gaye Curzon, adored mother of Bow and Nestor, so much-loved sister of her two brothers and eight sisters, and devoted aunt to her nieces and nephews.”

Her passing has deeply affected those close to her, including her sister Cressida, who shared a close bond with the late aristocrat.

Pandora’s health issues began at a young age. At just 26, she was diagnosed with Paget’s disease, a rare form of breast cancer, which led to a double mastectomy.

Her battle continued as she later developed cancer sarcoma of the sinus, with doctors initially giving her only ten weeks to live.

Pandora’s contributions extended beyond her personal struggle. Kerry Reeves-Knepi, Director of Communications at Sarcoma UK, praised her extraordinary impact on the organization and the wider community.

Reeves-Knepi highlighted Pandora’s “sweetness and genuine care for others” and her inspiring spirit throughout her long battle with cancer.

“Pandora’s openness about her journey helped raise crucial awareness about sarcoma and the challenges faced by patients,” Reeves-Knepi noted, adding that Pandora’s legacy will continue to influence the organization’s mission.

Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas were in a relationship from 2012 to 2014, after being introduced by Princess Eugenie.

The end of Pandora’s life and the associated pain for Cressida and her family brings a somber note to Harry’s past connections and highlights the enduring impact of personal loss and grief.
