ANTIQUES Roadshow expert Bunny Campione has sadly announced the death of her husband Major Iain Grahame.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Roadshow favourite Bunny and Iain were married for 21 years before he passed away this weekend. He was 91 years old.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The 77-year-old BBC star married Iain back in 2002. They accidentally met years earlier, having driven into each other going around the corner of a country lane.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bunny enjoyed 21 years of marriage with Iain, who had earned the rank of Major in the King\u2019s Royal Rifle Corps following his education at Eton College.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was Iain\u2019s third wife, as he\u2019d previously married Susan d\u2019Esterre Curteis, daughter of Captain Sir Gerald Curteis, on 12 November 1960, and Diana Mansfield, daughter of Captain Edward Gerard Napier Mansfield and Joan Worship Byron, on 29 August 1972.<\/p>\n
Bunny has been a regular face on Antiques Roadshow since 1987. However, it\u2019s not currently clear if she will remain on the show or take a break from it following the news of Iain\u2019s death.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last year on the show, Bunny experienced a huge milestone in her career. She was presented with a unique doll that was one of the most impressive antiques she\u2019d ever seen\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI must admit that this is the most interesting and unusual doll that I\u2019ve seen in my 36 years of the roadshow,\u201d Bunny said while admiring the doll figurine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The doll, which was owned by two sisters, turned out to be a very special artifact.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI believe it\u2019s a funeral effigy of a three-year-old son that died of the Duke of Buckingham,\u201d the antiques expert explained to them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
