Wife of philanthropist Tetra Pak heir dies from cancer
The Independent
|April 19, 2024
A new tragedy has hit the Tetra Pak heir Hans Rausing with the death of his second wife, Julia, at the age of 63, after a long battle with cancer. She died peacefully yesterday morning surrounded by her family.
Friends of Julia Rausing, who married her husband in 2014, said she bore the illness with great courage while at the same time forging one of the world’s leading philanthropic forces with her husband.
Tens of millions of pounds have been donated in the couple’s names to the National Gallery and other arts organisations, as well as generous contributions to help tackle Covid. The Julia and Hans Rausing Trust, which they co-founded, has given away more than £330m in total, including £50m to UK charities annually and more than 1,000 grants.
