Per the media outlet, the coroner marked her death as “non-suspicious,” adding that there was no involvement of a third party.

The Sun reported that an inquest has been opened at Wiltshire and Swindon coroner’s court, "and adjourned until Oct. 25."

Roche was an English Literature student at Durham University. She was the second cousin of William and Harry and the granddaughter of Princess Diana’s uncle.
