Celebrated as an adept hunter and equestrian, Ian proudly served in the Queen’s Hussars.
The King, already grappling with his own cancer diagnosis, is profoundly grieved by this bereavement. This sorrowful event follows closely on the heels of the demise of Lord Jacob Rothschild, who was 87.
In 2000, during a sabbatical, Prince William courted Ian’s daughter, Rose Farquhar. The youthful pair savored romantic repasts amidst the picturesque Gloucestershire landscape.
Ian Farquhar devoted many years to leasing a farm on the King’s Highgrove estate in Gloucestershire. Andy reminisced fondly about Ian, recalling him as “always a delight, yet as untamed as a hawk in his youth.”
He further remarked that Ian would be remembered in annals as “one of the preeminent hound masters.”
Ian held the esteemed position of Beaufort’s hunt master for an impressive span of 34 years.
