Tributes to author who dies at 88
Coventry Telegraph
|October 07, 2025
THE Queen has paid tribute to the author Dame Jilly Cooper who has died at the age of 88, describing her as a "legend" and a "wonderfully witty and compassionate friend to me and so many".

Jilly Cooper
The writer known for her "bonk-busters" including Riders, Rivals and Polo died unexpectedly on Sunday morning after a fall, with her children Felix and Emily saying it had come as a "complete shock".
Camilla said she hoped Dame Jilly's "hereafter" would be "filled with impossibly handsome men and devoted dogs".
Dame Jilly was a longstanding friend of Camilla, and the author based her fictional seducer and showjumping lothario Rupert Campbell-Black partly on the Queen's ex-husband Andrew Parker Bowles.
