Thomas Kingston, a high flying financier who married into the Royal Family, died from self-inflicted shotgun wounds and his family linked his death to side effects from medication he had been taking. And today the Daily Mail can reveal that a final assessment by forensic accountants found that Mr Kingston’s firm will be unable to pay £8million it owes. A subsequent inquest into his death was told he had stopped taking medication in the days leading up to his death. After his death it emerged that the prestigious investment firm he had founded, Devonport Capital Limited, owed £27.9million. Following his death Buckingham Palace released a statement on behalf of Lady Gabriella and the Kingston family, which described him as a ‘beloved husband, son and brother’.
