I’ve heard that Lizzy was executed in ‘19 and this death announcement lets us know that the monarchy is finished, and the countries under her control (which includes us since 1871) will return to sovereign Republics.
So who knows, grain of salt, etc. But…
Today Jacinda Ardern came out and said that “New Zealand will become a Republic in my lifetime” and she ended Covid restrictions.
Anyone telling you: “(insert person here) acchkually died/was executed years ago…” is probably bullshitting you.
Including you. No one really knows.
If someone makes the assertion that someone died months or even years before their death is officially announced, the burden of proof lies on the person making the assertion. You don’t get to make up random statements and use the lack of evidence as proof.
People who make such arguments from silence are probably bullshitting you.
If it’s really that important to you… One way to check is go to their home town, read obits from local funeral homes and read them if it’s same last name or very similar. They aren’t going to use their real name (maybe something similar). Don’t go to ancestry because that isn’t reliable, like Wiki, anyone can I put anything.
