Chairman Emeritus of The Irving Group Arthur Irving, reportedly dead: https://www.irvingoil.com/en-CA/press-room/irving-oil-announces-the-passing-its-chairman-emeritus-arthur-l-irving

 

His brother James was picked this year. However, Arthur Irving last picked in 2017 by, yes you guessed it, Blueberry Crumble. So another for the List of the Missed @Death Impends https://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2017/celebs_I.html#irvia0

Naresh Goyal, Indian businessman and founder of Jet Airways has cancer, and his wife, too:

Anita Goyal is British-born, an MBE, as author/philantropist and such:

There is some legal drama in the background though, so it might be a little less dramatic than it certainly sounds. 

Anita Goyal dead.

The article says that the husband suffers "multiple health issues". He might not be far behind.

Kamal Hinduja, wife of Prakash Hinduja and member of Britain's richest family, said to be in intensive care with relatives at her bedside in Monaco. She's 75 and the family is worth £37bn.

 

https://www.euronews.com/2024/06/22/switzerland-jails-members-of-uks-richest-family-for-abusing-workers

 

What a shame! She and 3 other family members have just been sentenced to 4 years in jail for exploiting impoverished Indian workers and spending less money on them than on the family pets. Her husband didn't attend the trial either, due to ill health.

 

If she's not faking her illness, long may she go through unbearable agony.
