Renowned TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp recently took to social media to pay tribute to her late father, Charles Allsopp, 6th Baron Hindlip. He passed away at the age of 83, leaving behind a legacy that his daughter is incredibly proud of.
Kirstie fondly remembered her father, who was not only a successful auctioneer, but also a talented artist and a skilled gardener. He was a loving husband to Kirstie's mother, Fiona, who unfortunately passed away in 2014 at the age of 66 after a long battle with breast cancer. Kirstie described her father as a "real star" who worked hard, played hard, and exceeded everyone's expectations.
On June 5, Lord Hindlip peacefully passed away at home, surrounded by his loved ones and surrounded by flowers and photographs. The house he built and the stunning garden he created from scratch were a reflection of his passion and dedication.
Kirstie shared a photo of her father on social media and expressed how proud she has always been to be his daughter. She also thanked him for the love and memories he left behind, and promised to cherish them forever.
The news of Lord Hindlip's passing was met with an outpouring of love and support from friends and colleagues. Fellow property presenter George Clarke offered his condolences and praised Kirstie's beautiful words about her father.
Hindlip was a hereditary peer and a successful businessman, serving as a member of the House of Lords from 1993 to 1999. He was educated at the prestigious Eton College.
In 1968, he married Fiona Atherley, an interior designer, and they welcomed four children together - Kirstie, Henry, Sophia, and Natasha. As a father, Hindlip was a source of pride and inspiration to his children, and Kirstie will always remember him as a loving and supportive father.
Apart from his successful career in auctions, Hindlip was also known for conducting some iconic sales. In 1987, he sold Van Gogh's famous painting Sunflowers for a staggering £24.75 million. He also acted as an auctioneer for a charity sale of Princess Diana's dresses, which raised £2.8 million just two months before her tragic passing.
Hindlip's legacy will continue to live on, not only through his successful career but also through the memories and love that he left behind. He will always be remembered as a loving husband, father, and grandfather, and his passing is a great loss to his family and the community.
