Close friends and family gathered to bid farewell to the former diplomat, financier and philanthropist after he passed away at the age of 45

Tom Kingston was brave and tough. He was also a “very, very, very” committed Christian who for three years worked side by side in Baghdad with the city’s famous “vicar”, the Reverend Canon Andrew White. Together they had survived countless suicide bomb attacks, only for Kingston to die 20 years later in a Cotswold village that was as outwardly peaceful as Iraq was violent.

Thomas Kingston, who has died aged 45, distinguished himself as a hostage negotiator in Iraq and as a financier before his marriage in 2019 to Lady Gabriella Windsor, only daughter of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.

EXCLUSIVE: Paramedics were called to the large, detached home around 6pm on Sunday. Police also attended the property where the former hostage negotiator and financiers parents live.

Blessed with good looks and charm, Kingston was a committed Christian and survived some close calls doing conflict resolution in Iraq
