Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have released a heartfelt tribute to the late Queen.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex changed their Archewell website to just a single black page, writing: “In loving memory of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. 1926-2022.”
And users are no longer able to access any other part of the website as a mark of respect.

He was pictured leaving Aberdeen airport looking sombre with his head in his hand in a car, after the news of Her Majesty’s death was announced. He wore a black suit and tie.

It had been an official portrait of the smiling couple.
And Clarence House replaced an official image of King Charles and Camilla with its crest, the Prince of Wales’ feathers.

“We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.
“During this period of moorings and change, 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.”
