How it ended, as its article says
Dissolved by Egypt, 1914-11-05. Read from the article's section “History - End of the Khedivate” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.
Britain now removed the nominal role of Constantinople, proclaimed a Sultanate of Egypt and abolished the Khedivate on 5 November 1914.

1 rulers, 1 with terms dated as terms, covering 1896 – 1902. Only 6 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
