'Aga Khan (IV)', Who I Knew As A Horse-Mad, Playboy, Died Yesterday (2/4/2025) -- Per the 'BBC'.

Click to ENLARGE. Wikipedia.
He was well known in Europe in the 1970s and 1980s. I now see that he had both U.K. and French citizenship.

I heard of his exploits, often, growing up in the UK in the 1970s/1980s. He was quite the playboy. I was in awe. Heard a lot about his horseracing.

I heard about his death on 'BBC Radio' this morning -- during my daily listen. I realized that I hadn't heard that name, which I immediately knew, in decades! I guess he is not famous in the US. Hence this post ...

Not sure what his death means. I know nothing about his religion. Too confusing, and I have my handfull trying to keep tabs of Buddhism & Catholicism.

This is for FYI -- just in case you were interested. Not sure it got any coverage in the U.S.
