Brother of former British Prime Minister David Cameron, barrister Alexander Cameron, passed away.
Alexander battled cancer from 2020 and passed away at the age of 59.
Cancer had forced him to leave the bar before his passing on Wednesday.
According to The Sun UK, Alex’s chambers, Three Raymond Buildings, announced his passing in a statement on Wednesday.
The statement partly read, “It is with immense sadness that Chambers announces the death of Alexander Cameron KC.
“Alex was considered to be one of the best silks at the Criminal Bar during his illustrious career and was a hugely respected and inspirational head of these Chambers.
“He will be missed enormously, and our heartfelt condolences go to his wife, Sarah, their children Imogen and Angus, and to his wider family.
“Details of a memorial service will be announced in due course,” the statement read.
At 39, the deceased was made a Queen’s Counsel and was described as a “phenomenon” with “enthralling advocacy skills”.
Alexander may have also urged David to run for office and assisted him in his ascent to that position in 2010.
