The Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, is today mourning the death of his Catholic mother who has passed away “suddenly and peacefully” in a London hospital.
Charlotte Johnson Wahl, 79, had Mr Johnson baptised into her faith as a baby but he elected to worship as an Anglican when he went to Eton College.
Few details have emerged about her death, although the Daily Telegraph, which broke the story, reported that she died shortly after she was admitted to St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington.
She had been a sufferer of Parkinson’s disease since the age of 40.
