Jilly Cooper, British Author of Beloved Romance Novels, Dies at 88 ...Saudi Arabia

Cooper's longtime agent Felicity Blunt confirmed the news to The Hollywood Reporter on Monday, noting that Cooper died Sunday after a fall.

Blunt continued, "Her plots were both intricate and gutsy, spiked with sharp observations and wicked humour. She regularly mined her own life for inspiration and there was something Austenesque about her dissections of society, its many prejudices and norms. But if you tried to pay her this compliment, or any compliment, she would brush it aside. She wrote, she said, simply ‘to add to the sum of human happiness’. In this regard as a writer she was and remains unbeatable."

In recent years, Cooper added to her resume as an executive producer on a small-screen adaptation of her novel Rivals for Disney+. As THR noted, the story centers on the infamous scoundrel and old money MP Rupert Campbell-Black and his rivalry with Tony Baddingham that seeps into the 1980s-set world of Rutshire, a fictional county in the Cotswolds, England.
