    My mom is 67 and follows this stuff religiously. She’ll be glued to the TV for 2 weeks.

    Not to make it too Too Hot, but if the Monarchy stands for anything, Prince Charles would take the throne and then abdicate the next day to William.

    Pathetic attempt at anything "Noble English".

    BTW, we won't see another E2. Grace and understanding what is the job. We are in the All About Me era. RIP.

    An incomparable woman.

    I feel really pretty gutted right now, to be honest. Our nation has had its knocks, bumps and bruises in the last little while, many self-inflicted, some might say deserved.

    But this was one incredible lady who served her country with class, humility and steadfast dedication. There will never be another like her and I'm incredibly sad that she's passed.

    I'm going to largely stay away from social media. This isn't a time for monarchy discussions, politiking or point scoring.

    She was just an absolutely remarkable lady. It feels like a large part of our nation died today. So, so sad.

    Queen Elizabeth of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, aka Queen Elizabeth the 2nd of England and Queen Elizabeth the 1st of Scotland, was a great Lady and great Friend of the U.S.A. At age 96, she was the longest reigning Monarch, 70 years, of the UK, surpassing Queen Victoria.

    May God comfort our friends, the people of The British Kingdom, during this time.

    Haha... that makes more sense. I was going from her age, not when she became Queen.
