Duchess of Kent – Death and Funeral

The Duchess of Kent (1933–2025), was born Katharine Lucy Mary Worsley in Yorkshire. She married Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, in 1961 and became a working member of the royal family. The couple had 3 children, George, Hellen, Nicholas, plus a stillborn son, Patrick. 

In 1994, Katherine became the first senior royal in centuries to convert to Catholicism. In 2002, she stepped down from royal duties and began quietly working as a music teacher under the name “Mrs. Kent”. In 2004, she co-founded the Future Talent charity to support gifted young musicians.
