After an

extensive investigation,

finally a few days ago the London police managed to

clarify the death of Sally Cadbury.

She is the wife of

Peter Cadbury

, the great-grandson of the founder of the

British

chocolate empire .

According to the first reports, the 76-year-old millionaire had suffered

an extremely "curious" death.

However, it has now been confirmed that Sally

fell into the Thames

while she was trying to prune a rose bush in the garden of her home in Easton Hastings, Oxfordshire.

According to the police statement, on November 4, 2021, Cadbury was

on the riverbank

when he tripped on muddy ground and

fell into the water.

But no one heard her cries for help, because she was alone at home.

Despite this, her family realized, a few hours later, that something strange had happened and they decided to file a

complaint for her alleged disappearance.

In this way, the police began looking for Sally and the next day they

found her body

in a place called Grafton Lock, 500 meters from her home.

At first, the English press raised the possibility that her death had not been an accident.

However, it has been revealed that the old woman unfortunately

drowned

in the current and that there was no third party involvement.

"Apparently,

Sally lost her balance

on a slippery shore and accidentally fell into the river," explains the forensic report that, this March, has sparked "unexpected" interest from the English media.

And it is that, during the almost eight decades of her life, Sally Cadbury did not appear much in the tabloids.

What's more, she used to live

a quiet life with her husband,

who today has no relationship with the cocoa company.

From its founding in 1824,

descendants of John Cadbury

were involved in his company.

Among them, his

sons

Richard and George, who are credited with notable improvements in the chocolate industry, and his

grandson

George Jr., who introduced the mass production of chocolate in Britain.

Despite this, currently,

none of his heirs participate in the company,

because it was sold to Kraft in 2010.

Still, the Cadburys are

proud

of their patriarch's legacy and are often identified as chocolatiers.

Even Sally, who became part of the family in the 1960s. According to various reports, Sally Strouvelle -her maiden name-

was born in New Dehli, in 1945,

in a family of Indian and British origin. .

Although, at a young age she moved to London, where she married Peter in 1969.

Together, the Cadburys

had two children:

Simon and Eleanor, who currently lives at Inverary Castle in Scotland, since in 2002 she married Torquhil Campbell, the 13th Duke of Argyll and grandson of Margaret Campbell.
