Christopher Shaw, 76, was found dead by his housekeeper at his rented house in Salisbury, on January 17.

He is believed to have committed suicide by taking an overdose of prescribed pills, friends said today.

However, police told E News there were “no suspicious circumstances” surrounding the death of the former banker, who suffered long-term health problems including chronic kidney disease.

Cressida was seven years old when Christopher married her mother, Lady Mary Gaye Curzon, in 1996.

Although the couple divorced four years later, when Cressida was 11, Christopher remained “a massive part of her life.”

“Christopher was Cressida’s father figure in her formative years,” a source told The Sun.

Christopher was Lady Gaye’s fourth husband and she has not subsequently remarried.
