LONDON – The British victim killed in the New Orleans terror attack has been revealed to be the stepson of Prince William and Harry’s former nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke. Edward Pettifer, 31, was confirmed as one of the 14 people killed in the chilling New Year terror attack in New Orleans on New Year’s Day. The 31-year-old’s cause of death was concluded by the New Orleans coroner as blunt force injuries following the attack on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter.

Edward from Chelsea, London was the eldest son of Charles Pettifer, who was an ex-Coldstream Guards Officer and Camilla Wyatt, 58. The couple went on to have another son, named Harry, 29, before parting ways in the 1990s.  Following his split from the mother of his children, Charles Pettifer wed Tiggy Legge-Bourke, 59, who was the nanny to Prince William and Harry between 1993 and 1999.  The duo had known each other since they were teenagers, with Ms Legge-Bourke also being Edward’s godmother.  Mr Pettifer and Ms Legge-Bourke went on to welcome two sons, 22-year-old Tom, who is the future monarch’s godson as well as Fred, 23, who is Prince Harry’s godson.
