Freak Accident; Scotsman dies after falling from his bedroom window: After letting his cat out of his bedroom window and falling out, a 98-year-old aristocrat passed away, according to Metro. On May 12, Michael Sydney Cedric Brudenell-Bruce, Marquess of Ailesbury, was hit by a concrete patio at his London residence after falling out of his bedroom window.
Teresa Marshall de Paoli, an 88-year-old woman, recounted the occurrence and said, “It was an absolutely freak accident.” I believe the glass was pushed up by the cat named Honeybun, who got her head caught. He lost balance and tumbled onto the patio. He struck his head against the concrete.
Before she discovered him, he had been lying there for more than an hour. She then called the police right away, and her daughter Lady Kathryn Brudenell Bruce showed up shortly after. Ms. Paoli went on to say that her husband had dementia at the time of his passing. The couple moved from Wiltshire to live together for 14 years at their terraced house in Shepherd’s Bush, west London.
”Police were summoned by the London Ambulance Service at 8.05 pm on Sunday, May 12, to an address in Abdale Road, W12, after a man in his 90s was found deceased,” a spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Police said. London Ambulance Service and officers were present. After 36 years together, Ms. Paoli claimed that the police handled the death like a “crime scene” even though she wasn’t taken into custody.
Before they realized he had fallen out of the window, they believed I might have murdered him, she added. It was the most bizarre accident ever. I hadn’t hit him, thus there hadn’t been a fight. I was informed that he would have died if he had struck the concrete with his back of the head. He might have spent an hour or an hour and a half resting there. He was quite pale and cold. I took a cushion and supported his head with it. I said to 999 that my boyfriend had been in an accident. Within seven minutes, the police and ambulance arrived, and a police officer informed a woman that he had passed away.
Later on, she was permitted to bid him farewell and spritz his body with his favorite aftershave. The Marquess was a distant relative of Florence Brudenell-Bruce, Prince Harry’s model. Interestingly, Florence and Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, dated for two months in 2011.
