According to a statement from Buckingham Palace, Queen Elizabeth II died “peacefully” on Thursday afternoon, surrounded by family at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, at the age of 96.
Earlier in the day, officials announced that the queen was under “medical supervision” and that her family would travel to her summer residence in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, to be by her side.
Charles, Prince of Wales and heir to the throne, who is 73 years old and Elizabeth’s eldest son, described the death of his mother as “a moment of the deepest sorrow” for the royal family.
Charles, who is now King Charles III, said in a prepared statement, “During this period of mourning and transition, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which The Queen was so widely held.”
Camilla, his wife, is now the Queen Consort.
In her 70 years as monarch, Queen Elizabeth II is remembered as a stabilizing force for Britain.
The death of the queen was announced around 1:30 p.m. Londoners rushed into the street and to the front of 10 Downing Street, where a notice announcing her death was posted on the black iron gates.
“Her long service spanned beyond the majority of living memories,” U.K. The Prime Minister stated from outside the gates.
In return, she was loved and admired by the people of the United Kingdom and the rest of the world. She has been a personal inspiration to me and many Britons, and her devotion to duty is an example for all of us.
On Tuesday, one of the queen’s final official duties was to appoint Truss as the new prime minister.
However, for the first time in her 70-year reign, the queen appointed a new prime minister from a location other than Buckingham Palace, sparking rumors about her health.
After the queen’s death, the royal family’s website went completely dark, displaying only a photo of Elizabeth at her 1953 coronation and a statement about her passing.
Condolences are pouring in from all corners of the globe. Elizabeth “was more than a monarch; she defined an era,” said President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden.
They referred to her as the “first British monarch with whom people could feel an immediate and personal connection” via television and radio.
“We will always cherish our time together with the Queen and never forget Her Majesty’s generous friendship, great wisdom, and wonderful sense of humor,” the former president and his wife said of Queen Elizabeth II.
When the Trumps met Queen Elizabeth as president, they said, “There was nobody like her!” and that the queen’s “remarkable reign left a tremendous legacy of peace and prosperity for Great Britain.”
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, whose nation is still a member of the Commonwealth, stated, “Canadians will always remember and appreciate Her Majesty’s wisdom, compassion, and warmth.”
Following the plans that have already been made under Operation London Bridge, which is a guide for the entirety of the United Kingdom, the funeral for the queen is scheduled to take place at Westminster Abbey ten days, after the death of Queen Elizabeth.
Great, now they can sale all her assets and pay all of the America’s for robbing all the gold and lives of millions of humans.
