Lady Susie Moss, the widow of legendary British racing driver Sir Stirling Moss, passed away at the age of 69 after a prolonged period of ill health.
Her older sister, Tina, stated that Lady Susie’s grief over Sir Stirling’s death, which occurred just three years ago when he was 90, was so profound that it contributed to her sister’s untimely death.
Tina, who is married to retail tycoon Sir Philip Green, revealed that her sister and Sir Stirling’s love story was one of the greatest she had ever known.
Despite the disparity in their ages, with Sir Stirling having an undiminished appetite for beautiful women, their marriage was an intensely happy one.
Their love story endured for almost four decades, a sharp contrast to Sir Stirling’s previous two failed marriages, which lasted just a few years each.
Lady Susie remained confident despite the attention that her husband always received from women, and their union was blessed with the birth of their only son, Elliot, a few months after their wedding in 1980.
The couple resided in Mayfair, near a swanky private members’ club, and in a house that Sir Stirling designed and equipped with a treasury of gadgets.
Lady Susie continued to live in the same house after Sir Stirling’s death, sleeping close to the urn that contained his ashes.
Lady Susie’s sister, Lady Green, mourned her sister’s untimely death and stated that she would be sorely missed.
The couple’s love story was a testament to the fact that true love knows no age or any other boundaries.
Despite the grief that Lady Susie experienced after Sir Stirling’s death, she will be remembered for her unwavering love for her husband, which endured until her very last breath.
