RIP

MrsGamgee · 08/09/2022 18:40

Rest in peace. What a lady, such an inspiration.

Hyacinth2 · 08/09/2022 18:41

Sad. Hard to get my head round this despite her age.

mydogisthebest · 08/09/2022 18:41

Very sad. It has upset me far more than I thought it would.

Hope she is now with Phillip and her corgis

AfterSchoolWorry · 08/09/2022 18:41

What a class act she was.

Rest in Peace Queen Elizabeth.

Reunited with Philip at last.

catandcoffee · 08/09/2022 18:41

What an amazing Woman. On Tuesday she met the new Priminister and Thursday she dies.

End of an era Sad

UkuleleRose · 08/09/2022 18:41

I'm sitting here in Seattle, at work, in tears.

I don’t think life will ever be the same again. Ever.

I agree.

And now we have a king.

BattenburgSlice · 08/09/2022 18:38

I’m not a royalist but am sad at her passing…

I think a good few of us feel the same, I know I do

LookdeepintotheParka · 08/09/2022 18:42

Also much more upset than I expected at this news. RIP

xsquared · 08/09/2022 18:42

May her soul rest in peace.

backaftera2yearbreak · 08/09/2022 18:42

never been a huge royalist but feel very sad!

OnceRuralNowUrbanbliss · 08/09/2022 18:42

Hard to believe given how well she looked on Tues. Frail but well. Truss must feel odd.

starsparkle08 · 08/09/2022 18:43

Extremely sad news . RIP thoughts to her family . Things will change massively now

AdoptedBumpkin · 08/09/2022 18:43

RIP. Thoughts with the royals

JustTheOneSwan · 08/09/2022 18:43

She did a long shift, God rest her.

IncessantNameChanger · 08/09/2022 18:43

RIP. It is moving. So sad. I though she would last forever stupidly somehow. In the change, she was always there

the80sweregreat · 08/09/2022 18:43

I don't understand why I feel so sad as she isn't anyone I know. She's always been around and I can't believe she has gone.
I'm not even a Royalist , but it feels surreal

HarleySq · 08/09/2022 18:43

A very respectful and quiet sadness here. The end of an era.
💜
She was an amazing servant to us all.

MorningPlatypus · 08/09/2022 18:43

God bless her.
And God save the King.

demogorgan · 08/09/2022 18:43

Never been a royalist but what a shame. Feel incredibly sad for someone I've never met!

Rip ❤️

MisgenderedSwan · 08/09/2022 18:44

Hope she can now rest in peace with Phillip.

Eeksteek · 08/09/2022 18:44

I’m not a huge royalist, or a fan of pomp and ceremony, but she’s utterly irreplaceable. It’s truly the end of an era. That’s sad, for Britain, and for her family.

Beeb came through first on my general alerts - before the radio etc.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 08/09/2022 18:44

I'm another one far more upset than I ever imagined. RIP.
