Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022) died this Thursday (8), at the age of 96, at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. She had been under observation for a few hours and her closest family members were hastily summoned to say goodbye.
The loss of the British monarch has been mourned by celebrities and international leaders. Singers Jessie J and Dua Lipa shared photos of the queen on Instagram Stories. “God save the queen,” wrote Adriane Galisteu on Twitter.
Player Alexandre Pato shared an image of Elizabeth II on Twitter and wished: “Rest in peace, queen!”. “My thoughts and the thoughts of Canadians across the country are with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at this time. We send our best regards to the Royal Family,” Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, wrote on Twitter.
Bill Clinton, former President of the United States, also mourned the death. “My thoughts and prayers go out to the Royal Family and all those Her Majesty has inspired throughout her life,” he said.

Death of Elizabeth II
Communication from Buckingham Palace had previously signaled that doctors were concerned about the Queen’s health. Close family members made emergency trips to the country to say goodbye.
“The Queen passed away peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon. The King and Queen consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and return to London tomorrow,” the palace said in a statement posted on the royal family’s website.
On the death certificate, the palace determined the cause of death as “advanced age.” In the order of succession, the one who will assume the throne is Prince Charles.
