A terrible fate has shocked the royal family: a British victim of the New Year’s Eve attack in New Orleans has been identified by authorities as Edward Pettifer, 31. He is the stepson of Prince William and Prince Harry’s former nanny Alexandra Pettifer – better known as Tiggy Legge-Bourke.
The news of the young man’s death deeply shocked both the royal family and the British public.
King expresses his condolences
According to the palace, King Charles was told that the Briton killed in the New Year’s Day car attack was the stepson of William and Harry’s former nanny Tiggy Pettifer. The king contacted the Pettifer family to express his condolences.
Tiggy – The “surrogate mother” of the princes
Tiggy Legge-Bourke played a crucial role in the lives of the young princes in the 1990s. After the divorce of King Charles and Princess Diana, she took over the care of William and Harry from 1992 to 1997. She was often referred to in the media as the couple’s “surrogate mother” – a role that reportedly caused tension with Diana.
The relationship between Diana and Tiggy was considered difficult. The late princess accused the former nanny of interfering too much in the family. Despite these tensions, Tiggy enjoyed the confidence of King Charles, who described her as a ‘highly valued employee’.
