The last photo of billionaire businessman Sunjay Kapur, captured shortly before he participated in a polo match, has been released. During this match, he tragically died after accidentally swallowing a bee.

As a close friend of Prince William and the chairman of the renowned automotive company Sona Comstar, Kapur suffered a heart attack on June 12 while on a polo field in Windsor, England. He was 53 years old at the time of his passing.

Just before entering the field, Kapur had taken a photo with Jaisal Singh, who is the captain and benefactor of the polo team Sujan Indian Tigers. Kapur’s team went against this team in the subsidiary final of the prestigious Queen’s Cup.

“Today we play the final of the Cartier Trophy in the memory of our dear friend Sunjay Kapur, who tragically passed away on the field a few days ago,” the team wrote on Instagram Sunday.

The caption explained that Singh would ride with the team initially, then step back as a mark of respect.

“Our Captain and Patron, Jaisal Singh, will mount up with the team to observe a minute’s silence in honor of his dear old friend Sunjay, and then sit out as a mark of respect 🙏🏼.”

The club revealed that it was Kapur’s final photo before he reportedly stung by a bee on the mouth, triggering an anaphylactic shock that caused his heart to stop.

“This photograph of Sunjay and Jaisal was taken moments before they mounted up to play the semi finals a few days ago,” the caption continued.

“RIP Sunjay; you will be missed – your tireless enthusiasm and patronage will be remembered forever by the entire polo community.”

Kapur’s own team, Aureus, shared a heartfelt tribute on social media following his death.

“The Aureus team are all in total and utter shock,” they wrote on Instagram. “Sunjay – you were the life and soul of the Aureus Team – you were a true inspiration and that legacy will remain forever.”

At the time of his death, Kapur had been playing at the prestigious Guards Polo Club in Windsor, which is often frequented by members of the royal family.

Kapur, who had an estimated net worth of $1.2 billion, often took part in exclusive matches across the UK and was invited to play with members of the royal fold, including the Prince of Wales, 42.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that the keen polo player — who also boasted US citizenship — shouted, “I’ve swallowed something!” moments before his untimely death.

The billionaire is survived by his wife, Priya Sachdev, their son Azarias, and his two children from a previous marriage to Bollywood superstar Karisma Kapoor: Samaira and Kiaan.
