Prince Harry‘s old flame, Cressida Bonas, who he dated between 2012 and 2014 after being introduced by Princess Eugenie, is mourning the loss of her “darling sister,” Pandora Cooper-Key.
Pandora had battled cancer for 24 years and passed due to an inoperable brain tumor at the age of 51. Taking to Instagram, Cressida Bonas shared a photo dump and a heartfelt message for her half-sister:
“l’ll look for you in the markets where we walked arm-in-arm. Amongst the ancient trees, I’ll talk and ask them where you are. I’ll find you in the expression of a Pekingese, in pots of honey, pretty hats and in the eyes of your two boys.”
The actress and model continued her tribute with sweet recollections of Pandora’s unique phrases and their shared love for adventure. Finally, she ended her heartfelt tribute with a sentimental realization, admitting that she never had to look for her sister at all, as she was always by her side. Touchingly, she concluded by saying “My heart is forever yours” with a butterfly emoji.
Pandora Cooper-Key, who was born in 1973, faced several health struggles over the years, including sarcoma and Paget’s disease, due to a rare genetic disorder known as Li-Fraumeni. Despite her sad loss, these sisters’ legacy and love will live on.
