The Queen recently shared that she had to put her beloved Jack Russell Beth to sleep after the dog was diagnosed with an untreatable tumour
The Princess of Wales' brother, James Middleton, has shown his support for Queen Camilla as she grieves her long-time canine companion, Beth. The 77-year-old Royal disclosed the loss on social media, revealing Beth's health struggles and incurable tumour that led to the tragic decision to put her to sleep.
Taking to Instagram to express his sentiment, James told his 352k followers he was "saddened to hear" about the demise of the Queen's pet. He said in a heartfelt message: "The reason, I think, that losing a dog often feels harder than losing a relative or a friend is because their love for us is uncomplicated. The simple request in life is that you love them back."The Express reports James made an emotional addition, saying: "I have written a piece in today's Times on how I coped with the loss of Ella after I was saddened to hear of the passing of the Queens beloved Jack Russell.
Alongside Beth was Bluebell, another Jack Russell terrier who called the palace home. Earlier in the month, Buckingham Palace made a heartfelt announcement saying: "A sad farewell to Beth, The Queen's much-loved companion from Battersea Dogs and Cats Home who brought such joy, whether on walkies, helping on official duties, or curled up by the fire."
James, much like the Royal Family, is renowned for his fondness for animals. The father of one currently has a brood of six dogs named Zulu, Inka, Luna, Mabel, Nala, and Isla.
