President Macron put it best. “To you she was your Queen, to us she was THE Queen”. I’m from a Commonwealth Realm. So she was our Queen too. I’ll remember her always as the greatest head of state and a woman of honour. She is very sadly missed.
Yes OUR Queen. 👍🇬🇧🏴
Always THE QUEEN!!!!! And forever missed and loved for her complete elegance and class and beauty❤❤
Sympathy from the U.S. ❤
Will never forget how the Queen asked her Guards at Buckingham Palace to play the American National Anthem on 9/11, a gesture of solidarity and friendship.
She is missed.
🇺🇸
Exactly for the rest of the world still is the QUEEN 👑❤❤❤❤
Not my queen. Speak for yourself. Do not speak for me thanks
Above everything I remember from Her Majesty's death, I remember how Princess Ann stayed with the Queen the entire time. Such elegance and grace, but above everything a daughter stayed with her Mother.
❤😭😭🙏💪 Anne the best daughter in the world . She stayed with her to the very end 💔🙏
It was the greatest "réconfort" to me knowing Pr. Anne was with her. Love her.
That is what got me, too.. the love of a daughter taking care of her mother..
Given the opportunity, ANY daughter who loved her mother, would want to be there for the final moments of life.
The most loyal daughter anyone could ever ask for!
As an American, I miss the Queens smile, pleasant demeaner and dedication to her country regardless of her age.
She did have a beautiful smile, didn't she.
Why are Americans always so obsessed with saying that they are American
@@llillyy2564 because I am making a comment on a post that is not from or about our country. I am making a comment as a spectator of history not as a person who lives inside the United Kingdom.
@@llillyy2564 It's known as paying ones respect.
@@lhead7226 I get what you’re saying. You’re not from the UK or commonwealth nation , But still her not being here is strange To most people alive she was always was a constant in the world.
I'm an American who lives in the middle of the U.S. I went to work (home health care) knowing Her Majesty was most likely on her death bed. News came on my phone at 12:30 Central Standard Time. I started crying and immediately told my client that Her Majesty had died. Then we were both in tears. RIP Queen Elizabeth.
Im British I think everyone knew she was declining after Prince Philip died. But didn’t want to say her last appearance on the balcony looking back she knew it was her last appearance. But still was a shock when she left us
I was listening to the radio in my car at around 3:10 to 3:20 pm utc-5, or eastern standard U.S. time, when, after the song finished, the DJ came on and I had managed to catch the words of her passing. And, I was like "wait what ?😳", and looked her up, and sure enough, over on Wikipedia it mentioned about the date of her passing.
I was so fortunate to have attended one of the Queen’s Garden Parties. It was beyond a magical time. When the Queen and Prince Philip stepped out onto the steps down to the garden we all went silent. She walked the line of attendees, chatting to us as she moved along. The reverence we felt was electric. She was wonderful! I’ll never forget what a wonderful, rare and special afternoon we had.
lucky you, to have that privilege, & wonderful memories, blessings!
I remember the Coronation. I was 7 years old and we had 3 days off scho0l.
Wow! You were so lucky and fortunate to attend one of Her Majesty's grand garden parties!! I always thought how surreal and phenomenal it would be to go to one, and I love watching videos of ppl who have attended the garden part(y/ies)! You used the word "magical" to describe your experience and that's exactly how I imagined it would be!! RIP QEII ❤ 👑 👸 🕊️ 💐
The moment it was announced that she passed, I cried. I am not from Britain but like so many others did not know a life without her. Though I felt for a while before her passing that it was imminent, it still came as a shock. I am sure she had health issues the public were not made aware of but it was also evident that since Prince Philip's passing and with a lot of unnecessary family drama around her, she showed signs of a rapid decline. I am proud that it was in my country, South Africa, that she promised a life of servitude. A promise she kept for decades and until the day she passed. May she rest in peace, which sadly I think she was not afforded during her last years.
Beautifully said ❤
The Oscar is in the post any day from now.
I’m also from South Africa and haven’t known life without the Queen. What a life of sacrifice so noble in her duties and a wonderful role model….. She has left a huge gap in all of our lives !
My own mother passed in 2021 at 96 and many said she looked like the Queen. I thought so as well. I have known Queen Elizabeth my entire life and will miss her for the rest of it.
the people crying over the queen are the same people who came out to denounce the queen for not crying enough over Diana in her coffin, its all a load off media spin hype and garbage . she didn't have the ability to even understand what normal people were she was a product off the1920sgoing on 1900s she wasn't cozy she was a distant mother to Charles .
Such a “take your breathe away” day. As a Canadian, sat down and just cried. She was the only Monarch that I had ever known. A flawless reign to be sure. Never forget.
She was not your monarch. You've never paid a cent to fund her. While you sponged like a parasite, the true British people paid to keep their monarch going. If you ACTUALLY cared for her and it's not just words, it's time for spongeing Canada to stump up the several billion they owe the British taxpayer in backpayments for keeping the monarchy going. Until then, she's no Queen of yours, scrounger.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cried? I'm splitting my sides
@@janicehopwood9528- Aw bless, the attention wasn’t on you for 5 whole minutes. You’re pathetic !
I suppose you like being nasty@@janicehopwood9528
Her treatment of Diana was disgusting
She promised to do her duty all her life, and kept her word, until the day she died.
A light went out in our lives, at that moment.
We all felt the loss of her kind smile and sparkling eyes.
Few have dedicated themselves to so many others, with such dignity, grace, and love, as this remarkable woman.
Rest in peace, Your Majesty. We all miss you👌😔
Lovely comment.
Rest impeach lllibet
Rest I peace Lillbet
Beautifully said❤️
I don’t miss her. Down with imperialism and colonisation!
She is truly missed. The world seems different. Rest in peace Your Majesty.
@leoniemary3850 Yes, the world seemed to change that day. Just rewatching this brought tears.
I'm proud to have lived 5 decades in the Era of Queen Elizabeth II - She is dearly missed but will be remembered for all time.
Me aswell ❤❤❤
Great achievement, that you breathed at the same time as the queen? Wow! That IS something to be proud about! Well done love 🎉
I remember the death of the old King being announced in my school and the the start of Queen Elizabeth’s reign. Losing her has been like the loss of a very dear family member. The drawing of her with Paddington walking away rests on my mantelpiece and there will always stay
Oddly, I was alive in 7 decades of her reign. Which made me stop to think about parents and grandparents, and one great grandparent. My Nan (great grandma), and my Granny and Grandpa were born during the reign of Queen Victoria and my parents were born during Edward V and Edward VI.
@@lordfarquaad7896 whichever side of the bed you got out of the day you posted that comment - it must have been the wrong side. I hope you're feeling better?
I'm from Canada and I got up at 4 am to watch Queen Elizabeth's funeral. It was when the Crown was taken from it's place on her coffin, that the end of her reign truly hit me. It was profoundly moving.
Yes. We watched live from my job in New York. I knew there would be interest, sympathy. But the absolute silence, respect and reflection I witnessed from my countrymen in a non-monarchal nation truly shocked me. A historic reign and send off. We will never witness another leader, elected or ordained with such massive global impact/recognition.
That part, yes
+ the Scottish Bagpiper, which to us was so much "for her." She
loved them + she was woken by Bagpipes every day at Balmoral & she loved everything about Scotland. She was always diligent & worked hard; always did her Duty to the ppl of the UK & Commonwealth; but once Pr Phillip was gone even the late HMTQ struggled. (My Mother tells me it's something that often happens if a couple have been together seventy plus years but we all hoped she'd be fine until one hundred like her own Mother)🙏🏻🇬🇧
@@CuteCuteCute-02She had bone cancer.
I was up from 2am that day on September 19th 2022; I was up for 14 hours straight and hardly slept that week anyway
Same here. I dropped all plans to watch from Texas. She was a woman of great courage, empathy and dedication to her people. She was a shining example to us all over the world and beloved.
All respect to an extraordinary woman , diplomat of peace, irrefutable integrity, resilient and incredibly intelligent. May she rest in peace.
Beautiful post. 🫡
Absolutely agree
I also started listening actually- no tv- all on radio- the Royals- the queens marriage, her Father’s death- and her Coronation when I was very young in the 1950s - and our family had to get up very early in the morning- 6:00 am to hear their ceremonies- oh and our background was not English-my father immigrated to Canada from Ukraine in 1928
💯
😂 remind who her friends were that she knighted again, Jimmy Savile, Rolf Harris Stuart hall ?? 🤔 bit of a pattern there
We loved her. It's that simple.
Silly
I had no hate for the queen, but I didn't know anyone that "loved" her
Ditto
I will never forget the comfort Her Majesty gave with her speech during the pandemic. RIP Queen Elizabeth. You are truly loved and missed.❤
Have you thought about joining a religion? You might do well in that.
It was completely pointless. Empty words.
@oligreen1192 not as pointless as your words.
@@MeAndTheBoys_Have you thought about getting a life?
Her words brought me more comfort than that of any of my American politicians did and I had never heard any of her previous addresses before.. Was truly sad she passed and appreciate her dedication to her station in life.
I’m Portuguese living in UK 🇬🇧 since 2008 I’m still devasted and still not believing that HM Queen Elizabeth II is gone ….. 😔😞😢😢
You may be Portuguese, but that one comment shows a little bit of this sceptre’d isle has taken part of your soul and made you British as well . 🙏
@@markwalker4142We are the oldest allies in the World of Course many Portuguese people felt really shocked on that day 🇵🇹🇬🇧
My Mum passed away suddenly at 97 just days before Queen Elizabeth. Two wonderful Ladies . The life they has seen, what they achieved. The changes in the world they had seen. My darling Dad passed away 8 weeks later. Mum and Dad together .
I lost my mum too , losing the Queen was loosing mum all over again
Sincere condolences; my Mum died a few weeks before the Queen and I was still devastated and then hearing Her Majesty had died brought it all back.
I lost a special grandfather type figure just days before the queen passed and then my father not long after the queen……. It was a crushing year…. What a wonderful woman and amazing queen.
🙏🙏🙏
I count myself privileged to have lived through her reign. Felt like we had all lost a member of our family. RIP❤
Her son is a paedophile. Wake the hell up. Another killed wife.
Right.
Lol. Do your family members have a carefully constructed public personna?!
The Queen went thought so many changes and chaos over the years.She was intelligent,sensible and was an excellent Queen.
😂 subject😂😂🤣 how silly
I remember being at work in Chicago and seeing the announcement online. Others in the office were hearing the news and it felt imperative to speak it out loud - even though she was not our Queen. The world felt different in that moment - the way it feels when you lose a beloved parent. She was on top of a very short list of world figures who stood for integrity and honor - and as the list gets smaller, the growing void is palpable. A great lady indeed - RIP Your Majesty.
So well said.
😢😢❤😢😢
Teresa that’s one of the most eloquent comments I have ever read on a CZcams thread and it’s much appreciated. I have family in Chicago it’s an amazing city my best wishes to you.
@@gerardmackay8909 thanks very much.
What a lovely comment. Thank you. 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇸
I am from South Africa and I thought she was a great leader. She had so many heartache to overcome during her life. Never complain never explain. I loved her 😢
🇿🇦😢
One of my favourite stories is about Mr Mandela, who called her Elizabeth on the phone, and when his grand-daughter said you can't do that, he replied "Why not, it's her name" :)
As an American, I still missed the late Queen. She was a very person lady. R.I.P Your Majesty
A person lady 😂😂😂 she was literally the most impersonal person on the entire planet. Completely unapproachable in every sense of the word. You people are off your rockers 🤦🏼♀️
i don't i live in the UK but if you want to dig her up and transport her to a museum in America that would be absolutely ok . perhaps ask the right wing uk government who also sell off everything that is British water transport the land beneath peoples feet to other country's so pack her up and ship her over .
@@andyscot4844You lot will never get ANYTHING Royal.. certainly not our beloved late Queen.. your lack of respect shows exactly what sort of country you’re from.😡🇬🇧
So do I ❤🇩🇪from Germany
@@Devils-advocate78 She must have done something right since she was able to reach out to a the people who doesn't share your opinion.
May her beautiful soul rest in peace 🙏🙏🙏
Her Maj is not dead
U didn't know her soul.
Did the queen have a soul? How can you see into the queens "soul" ? Was the queen's soul actually even beautiful?
Crying publically after a complete stranger, someone who lived in luxury all her life, and mingled with her subjects a few times a year, shaking a few hands. Oh yes, im convinced! 🤣✌
@@MeAndTheBoys_ ... and if Her Maj were to pass you in the street, you'd bow down to kiss her trails. I know your type
@@guff9567 And we all know your type 🤡
Queen Elizabeth was a grand lady who never put a foot wrong in her 70 year reign. It was heartbreaking that she had the trouble with Harry in her final years. R I P Your Majesty.
What about paying the woman that her son sexually abused to keep quite?
@@palmodesigns7807The woman who was over the age of consent and the one who trafficked other women? It was never proved he did anything.
@@palmodesigns7807That woman has now said she was mistaken, but hasn’t paid the money back and she (now she has money) is being sued by yet another woman.
One year ago today I was watching the BBC when suddenly the commentary stopped and the screen went black. I thought at first I had lost the connection but then realization struck and a few moments later the commentator reappeared to announce that our Queen had died. Even now I still get emotional watching this video. 😢🇨🇦
One day before the Queen died, I had this weird vision of Woody.EXE making me Queen of Wales and 24 hours later, our reign becomes official. It was a very strange time for both of us
The world will not be the same without her and for over 70 yrs she has been my Queen of Australia.
THE WORLD? No, you are wrong. 🙈
and my Queen of Canada...
Perhaps there will be more money to spare, but I doubt it with this greedy family.
@@carryonsinginglennyloveyou8164no one wants you here with your nastiness
I am not British or of a Commonwealth country, yet I cried in my car when her death was announced. It was as loosing your own grandmother.
Get a grip
@@eggbreath9631 Exactly. People apparently got " to know" the queen, by watching tv, or CZcams etc.
Delusional people, who fixate on people they know nothing about.
When you wrote this, and you pressed " Comment", did you feel that dopamine hit?
You felt the pain of a small portion of the British people, and somehow you had a deep connection with an old woman, whom you have never met, nor talked with, nor do you actually know anything about this old woman.
But yes, you wanted that dopamine hit.
@@eggbreath9631 Get a life! Toxic troll!
@@MeAndTheBoys_ Small portion? Did you see the queue to pay respect to the Queen at Westminster Abbey? Or the congregation at Buckingham Palace that night? At the time the Queen died more than 80% of British people supported the monarchy. What a small portion.
I still got goosebump watching this video. Born in British Hong Kong, she was my Queen all my life and still is.
Wow, has it been a year already since her passing? She was one of the most iconic world leaders in my lifetime. May you rest in peace, Your Majesty.....
This still hits hard and has made me cry, I miss her wisdom and humor. That day I was so shocked I cried with my mom. She was the best, we’ll not have a true Queen unless George’s first born is a daughter. She was always a lady, a very missed, beloved one 😢
You are totally stupid. Feel sorry for yourself.
Bit of a dumb reason to cry about
Don't worry, nobody will be making the dumb mistake to cry for you when you die.
Sounds like you knew her personally?
Grow up and stop being an idiot, she was in her 90s, death is as natural as birth AND, no one in the royal family will be crying for you when you die. You need a reality check
Me too 😔
I can't believe its been a year since the passing of H.M Queen Elizabeth..R.I.P
Her Maj is not dead
@@guff9567 she could be dancing with elvis..in graceland
@@colincharlton9339 Nope. Locked in a dungeon in Balmoral by her wicked children
Probably Harry and Megan..
And now Charles has cancer a year later. I’m fearing the worst now because I’ve had a few nightmares about the news randomly on air and the worst happened
I remember during the pandemic when she made her speech of we will be together again. I live on my own, and was having to go out every day to visit people in their homes, as part of my job with the NHS. I could not see my family and the mental stress was immense. But her speech felt like she was talking to me personally, and I believed her when she said we would meet again. I felt like I lost an honorary Grandmother when she died.
Oh I remember this day. I heard the news that she was not doing well and I was sitting at home and I just knew that she was leaving us. I prayed otherwise but I knew it was coming. It is hard to believe that it has been a year already. She was such a lady of class. And Charles has done her proud. RIP Your Majesty!
Thank you Ma'am, for everything❤
Paddington ❤❤❤
She was incomparable. I cried when she died and again a tear fell just watching this. She was the world's grandmother. As an American we never had a steady rock in our country to lean on through the years such as the Queen. I believe she will go down in history as the greatest monarch that ever lived.
There will never be another monarch like Queen Elizabeth. She was a class act that no one else would ever be able to live up to. 👑🩷
What an amazing historical moment = To be at the bedside of such a Queen at the time of her transition = RIP YOUR MAJESTY 😢😢😢
Today is the remember the great lady we call the Queen and should not be a battle ground for anyone else
This is the queen’s Remembrance Day, I send my sincere wishes to all the the royal family, and how we all remember the queen on this day, a year ago.
There will never be another monarch with the beauty, grace, and poise of Queen Elizabeth II. She will missed world wide.
It’s been a year after HMQEII is gone, I’m still tearing up when I think about her.
And I’m just a far away stranger who never met her personally.
Her presence for me was calming,her departure poignant .
It is still impossible to me to see a photo of her without crying. I don't understand. Happily, I love K. Ch.III and Camilla and Pr. Anne and so many of the RF. 🇹🇩
come on, a woman you dont know, who was 96 and in failing health and clearly ready to go. @@user-mk8bq6mz4j
On the first Anniversary, I cried soon as I woken up and reminding Woody.EXE it’s been one year since the day we ascended to the throne in Wales and he refused to talk about it bless him. I was staying at his palace the night before the anniversary and seeing how emotional he looked this day and I honestly don’t blame Woody.EXE for being so traumatised 2 years on
As a US citizen I felt her pandemic message to be stabilizing. We needed that , and we turned to the Queen for hope. I will never forget how she made us feel and the strength that she gave us.
RIP your Majesty. Shedding tears for you again. Still so angry at the situation with one of your grandchildren, but I won't name him anymore. He deserves to be forgotten
Hahaha saddo. Get a life
He deserves to be written off.
Forget him then 🤷🏻♀️
What about Andrew
What about Andrew.Andrew has never bad mouthed any of his family.unlike the traitor Harry.
I may be an American, but my grandfather was a Brit thru and thru...and well I remember her portrait in a place of honor in his library. She was a woman of steely resolve, and unexpected humor. To me, she was the epitome of what lady was, and what a queen should be.
The moment she passed I sat in my kitchen all day and cried. Even the next morning I was trying to get ready for my day and would burst into tears. I remember casually trying to talk to my dad on the phone and just started crying. I'm from the US but have Scottish and English descent and my entire childhood I have always looked up to her Majesty as a role model. I'm so happy I was on Earth when the Queen was here. She was truly a calming consistency - a figure who has always been there in this crazy world. This October I'm going to England and plan to stay at Windsor. I can't wait to see an area that she resided at.
I will try next year in july 👑❤️
She was queen for 70 of my 73 years. I’m American, the daughter of an English mom from Preston who came to US at age 7. England and your queen have always had a special place in my heart.
Thank you DM for this wonderfully produced inside look at that sad day. Very thoughtful, poignant, respectful, and touching. I felt like I was at a church service I was so still listening to the stories. Thank you all so much.
❤😢❤
It felt like the world lost its Grandmother the day Queen Elizabeth 2 passed away. She was an elegant and wonderful woman!!
That line from HMTQ’s COVID speech always makes me emotional. When she says, “we will be with our families again, we will be with our friends again, we will meet at again” it still makes me well up. What a remarkable woman!
Pleeeeeese get a life
It happened at a very different time of day for us Aussies. I sent my mum a message very late at night saying The Queen was not well by the time we woke up she was gone.😭 RIP our amazing Queen
The enormous public show of love at the Jubilee was beautiful. I cannot help but think it was a small comfort at the end to know that one’s lifetime of work was of value to so many.
Still makes me so sad 😢
Sad for what. We all going to die one day
@@sophiegunner1754 hmm thanks for that enlightening statement.
@@wendywardashleySophie would rather you have no emotions at all.
Her Majesty leaves a profound impression of resolution and warmth across the globe. How we wish it could continue. On behalf of whomever is remembering The Queen on this first anniversary, I simply wish to express deep gratitude for her loyal and most dutiful reign. We love and miss you. Thank you ma'am. 🖤❤💙
The Queen was an amazing woman which I have always admired, I will never forget how she worked till her death, she was a moral role model and I loved that about her. Rest in peace ❤
What a remarkable woman she was. Truly one constant thing In the world for almost 100 years was her presence. I’m young (17) and remember learning everything about her and people older than me telling me what they remember when they were young. Having seen even a small part of her reign was truly amazing to be in that moment of history even as an American. I remember when the announcement came she had died, I was in a German class and we kind of all just paused. Then the rest of the day kind of felt different. RIP to an amazing woman and F those who were happy she died.
What I loved most about Queen Elizabeth II was her smile. She had one of the most beautiful smiles=would light out any space she occupied. Rest in Peace!
I remember exactly where I was, and I remember how surprised I was at how much I cried. The late Queen had found a place in my heart. Just knowing she existed, though, we are oceans apart warmed my heart. Yet I cried, for her, and today I am still emotional. To me, she was the most beautiful and consistent woman to walk this earth.
It was a sad day for the world,,,,she was respected by all,,,,,,
Not a sad day for me, i didn't care
@nbbvvfkjjj1877 you say you didn't care, yet I've read at least 5 comments from you here... are you SURE you didn't (and still don't) care? If you really didn't, and still don't, I strongly suggest you develop some new hobbies and get a life instead of trolling random comments on CZcams!
So why are you here?oh I get it just to be nasty eh.oh dear.
@@heatherza5843 Don't tell me what to do snowflake
Very moving video, especially the clip of the Queen’s speech at the end. It’s strange how knowing so much about her life & reign made her feel familiar & her passing more impactful despite the fact I’m American. How lucky you all were to be Elizabethans.
R.I.P Our beautiful Queen Elizabeth 11
Harry caused his uncles and brothers to miss saying goodbye. This is unforgivable. Charles should not ever have a peace summit with this clown. He allowed his wife to ruin his family. Shame on you Harry.
Vous êtes le diable pour dire des choses pareilles un coeur noir prenez un miroir et regarder vous
Absolute rubbish
lol
Agree with you 👍 what you said is true!
Lol, do your calculations...they were supposed to take off at 1.30 and she passed away at 3.10 pm...it is 1 hour to Aberdeen and from there another 1.5 hours to Balmoral, they wo7ld have missed her anyways
I'm so glad I got to meet her and to pay my duties to her at her funeral. Still hits me hard. She was such a important women figure in our live
I miss the Queen. Great admiration for her service and dedication. So steadfast.
Why would you miss a old fart you didn't even know or who would not care about you?
Your a VILE excuse for humanity@@nbbvvfkjjj1877
Today can the media NOT talk about Harry and his wife out of respect for the late Queen Elizabeth II? It should be a day to pay respects to the Queen and not to the two horrible ungrateful parasites who inflicted so much stress and sadness on your beloved Queen Elizabeth II and treated her so disrespectfully. Pay respects to the Queen by not giving any media attention to Harry and Meghan please.It’s expected that they will try to dominate and detract attention away from the celebration of her life and sadness of her passing. No matter what they do please don’t acknowledge it today. Don’t give them the attention they so desperately want and need please if at all possible. I live in America and I am paying my respects to the King the members of the Royal family and the people of the UK and Commonwealth. I’m sure she is watching over them with so much pride and love. 👑🇬🇧🇺🇸
Agreed
Totaly agree
Well said! I was about to comment similar. Why does everything always have to be about that pair of ingrates?! Today is about our beloved Queen and that's all.
So you just did,stop it
So let’s all talk about Harry and Meghan 🤣 you idiot are trying to get people to talk about them. You don’t care about the queen, you have an obsession with Harry and Meghan. TODAY IS A PERFECT DAY TO TALK ABOUT HARRY AND MEGHAN 😊
This devastating news was already a year old; rip HMTQ ❤
😪💔👸🇺🇸🇬🇧
As much as we still miss her, can’t help but remember every now and then how blessed we were to live in the time of her reign. She knew how to have her presence be enough to touch every person possible, she went beyond service and duty to be that figure we can look to for inspiration, forever she’ll be dearly beloved.
My regards from across the pond.
I am an American, but my paternal grandmother instilled in me a deep respect for the Queen, and her family. I was allowed to stay up to catch His Majesty's (that still.seems strange to me) investiture as Prince of Wales. When news broke over here of her passing, I cried and cried. It was like a gut punch. I still cry. I was born 2 years after her crowning. She was the only monarch I knew. And watching His Majesty, publicly, going through his mourning, was heart wrenching. May all of the blessings reserved for the RF be many and magnificent! Requiem in Pace, Your Majesty. We all miss you more than we can express.
RIP Ma'am... Thanks for everything...
We miss you Your Majesty. May you Rest in Peace.
I miss her terribly, and not even a full 2 days later I lost my own grandmother. I will always and forever miss them both as they are and always will be an internal light to my soul. Rest in Peace Queen Elizabeth II
❤
I couldn't believe that it had actually happen, 😢I know we all have to die but for some reason I thought of her as INVINCIBLE,,,,I Had a little cry today I'm not ashamed of saying I loved and admired her, ALWAYS REMEMBERD NEVER FORGOTTEN ALWAYS LOVED AND MISSED RIP your Majesty🙏💔❤❤🐨🐨🐨

Als die Queen starb war es ein regelrechter Schock für mich! Ich weinte einfach vor dem TV und konnte es nicht richtig glauben!War die Queen für mich mein56 jähriges Leben ein immer da gewesener Fels in der Brandung.Und jetzt soll dieser Fels einfach ins Meer gesunken sein?
Mit dieser unglaublich intelligenten ,humorvollen und geliebte Queen ging ein Stück Großbritannien! Sie war für mich ein Idol ,auch nach einem Jahr verspüre ich Trauer! Ich vermisse die Queen sehr. Die Briten können stolz sein so eine Queen gehabt zu haben! Ich hoffe das sie mit ihrem Prinz Philip,Schwester Margret,Queen Mum und natürlich dem ehrwürdigen King George zusammen ist!
RIP

Danke! ♥️🇩🇪🇬🇧

Das haben Sie wundervoll geschrieben! Dem kann man sich nur anschließen. Es ist unfassbar dass diese wunderbare Frau schon 1 Jahr lang nicht mehr da ist :/ auch wenn man kein Brite ist, ich liebe die RF. Eine 2 wie die Queen wird es wohl nie wieder geben. Möge Sie mit Ihrer Familie ( Eltern, Schwester u Phillip) in Frieden ruhen.
@@annamariagorski1092 ja sie war eine wahre Königin! Als damals Princess Diana gestorben ist,hat die Queen soviel Hass entgegen nehmen müssen das mit die Tränen geflossen sind!Die Menschen haben gar nicht wahrgenommen,das die Queen ihren zwei Enkel nun die Mama ersetzen musste!Sie war es die den Jungs William und Harry die grausame Todesnachricht brachte!Ob jetzt der Palast die Flagge auf Halbmast hiesst war doch nicht das wichtigste.Das die Queen Zeit brauchte mit den Jungs oder auch für sie allein diese Tragödie zu verarbeiten!Das Volk wollte damals eine sofortige Ansprache!Niemand hat sich Gedanken gemacht das die königliche Familie auch Gefühle hat oder sogar in einem Schockzustand befanden!
Doch diese Frau hat auch dies gemeistert
I couldn't believe the news about the passing of her majesty. She reminded me of sweet grandmother. As an American I prayed for the Royal family and the people of the U.K.
I suggest you save your prayers for your own country , you need them more than we do…. Our Queen was a wonderful lady 👍
No need to be rude.i expect millions of people from around the globe felt our sorrow here in Great Britian.the Queen may not have been America's Queen but she was thought a lot about.that was a nasty reply.
@@kathleenlynch5763 that was rather a rude reply to what I felt. What was wrong with me praying for the late Queen and her family. So I am an American stating my sentiments to a country in sorrow
@@mariecolon4212 oh no.Bless you I wasn't replying to you and I'm so sorry if you thought that I was .I thought your comment was lovley and hundreds of Americans have said lovley things about the late Queen and thank you.i was replying to the comment before mine which I thought was awfull.i cannot stand rudeness at all.take care.💐I should have put the commenter name before replying to it.i forgot.🌹
Why is this so much about Harry. Meagain had no right to be at the Queens bedside..Harry had the chance to see her for months before but refused to go. Those two would 've had Omid Scobie breaking the news on her last moments on twitter...
Today is about our Queen Our Monarch , who reigned all through my life ,she was ,someone I looked up to ,admired adored a true warrior ,funny caring wicked humour ,I would feel like she was my own ,Grandmother, she brought so much comfort, I miss you , my Monarch my Queen ,😢💔
It was my and my husband's 21st wedding anniversary and the news came very early in the morning in Australia. It was like losing my grandmother all over again. She was fantastic! So very loyal, stoic and dedicated to her duty. We all loved her and we all miss her dearly.
Elizabeth the exemplary, thank you for your service! RIP you’ve earned it.
It was like loosing my grandmother and I never even met her . The gravitas is the late Queen was beyond comprehension . A super diplomat and respected by everyone other than those with huge chips on their shoulder and immature revolutionaries.
I was so sad but, the annual Christmas message without Queen Elizabeth II was absolutely deafining
Powerful! I’m crying again! Even tho it’s been a year since her passing, I still miss her. She’s been my Queen all my life, and I loved how her smile could light up the room. What an amazing woman! Rest In Peace, Queen Elizabeth The Great!
😢❤ RIP Queen Elizabeth
Her Maj is not dead
Troll
She didn't deserve to have her final years a misery because of those narcissists😭💔
Bang on 👍
Andrew? Yeah, definitely, that must have broken her heart. And Philip
Her grandson and that vile woman caused her so much misery poor thing.
I remember hearing that she was ill, but still being shocked when she died... still feels surreal...
I literally couldn't sing the National Anthem. The change of one word and I totally forgot the lyrics.
Great coverage. the Mail, thank you.
Thank you. 🇺🇸 misses this great lady, HMTQ, too!
Thank you; we may squabble sometimes, but the USA and UK will always be cousins and friends!
When I heard the Queen had died, I just broke down and cried, my sister was on a video call to my daughter who lives in Canada, and told her and my daughter just burst out crying, everybody was so emotional, and I still get upset especially just watching this video. She was loved by so many people around the world, and the respect she got, thousands of people cueing to pay their respect for 3 days, said it all.
Yes we all cried together when we lost our beloved queen that’s why tras will never be forgiven for her contempt and her traitor grandson
I didn't cry, i was too busy with other stuff to care
Who’s we?
As someone who has experienced death , I can’t help but wonder how she was welcomed into the afterlife. It must’ve been a glorious welcome by the multitude of people already there waiting for her.
Aaawww. I'm sure she WAS welcomed into that place we made up to feel better about death. 100% positive.
On such a beautiful tribute you thought you'd find a way to show disrespect but the truth is you still can't diminish her memory or those finding comfort in her final journey.
@@annnee6818Until you’ve experienced it for yourself you’ll never understand; I pity you.
@@enkisdaughter4795 There’s no need to pity, she’s on the path intended for her; the school of hard knocks.
@@annnee6818Oh dear.... I wonder how you'll deal with the discovery that it isn't a made up place, and in fact there are two places.....😮 But it'll be too late then.....
I’m in tears getting ready for work. 😢 this is a true documentary. Very moving
When the announcement about the Queens health was made I was in a Fish and Chip Cafe in Conwy , full of noisy Japanese tourists and holiday makers, Suddenly the young women waiter pointed at the TV , drawing everyones attention to the News. The place went silent.
As an English person the Canadian president’s speech was the best any official gave. It was really heartfelt.
Lovingly remembered.
Why say the Queen's funeral was a bit like her son's x wife's funeral? Why mention her grandson and his wife. This should have been about the Queen and nobody else.😂
There will never be another one that even comes close to her and her reign. RIP QEII. ❤
As a millennial Brit, I’m SO proud to be a granddaughter of the queen. May you RIP ❤️❤️❤️
Our beloved Queen passed away on my birthday , i was heartbroken and will never forget that day .Thank you ma'am for your unfaltering service to our country ❤
I was at work here in the US. Once they started the news coverage, i knew she had passed. She had a life well lived. She never faltered or failed. She spent her entire life in pursuit of her duty. Well done your majesty. Rest easy.
So sad, even after 1 year.
Wish Her Majesty had lived to 100 or more
Also remember the pain The Queen and Prince Philip felt as their own grandson Harry accused them of racism on their death beds!
😪🤬
This is not about Harry and Meghan and racism existed all thought that royal family it’s in their history go read about it ,it’s documented,let them people Rest In Peace and move on with your life, let Harry and Meghan do the same.
I can’t believe it’s been a year already.
As a Canadian and member of the commonwealth, I was saddened by her loss. I was only 33 and therefore had only ever known Our Queen. My students and I watched her funeral service, i made sure they saw the end, where she was placed in the floor of Westminster. This was history. Flags all over Canada went to half mast and they lit up Ottawa (our capital) for her. The legions across Canada placed black covers over her picture. Gun salutes went off. And the CBC ran memorials.
She remains on our money and there are many schools, charities, roads all named for her.
Her death proved her powerful niche in this world monarchy has never been the same since
When i think of the trauma and stress that Harry and MM caused her Majesty in her final years i can not think of anyone being so cruel and selfish. He fighting with the family to get his wife to Balmoral was atrocious. That made the family delay their arrival, and if it hadnt been for that, they could have been with her as she passed. Now, one year on, Harry and MM are trying to grab attention away from this anniversary of her passing, with their self indulgence and narcissism. I wish the press would just totally ignore them and give them no oxygen! We celebrate the magnificent reign of the late Queen and miss her every day. My thoughts go to her loving family. 🙏❤️
How do you know they cause her trauma and stress,she loved Harry stop it.
@@febe11111 she knew her personally lol
Harry and Meghan weren't liked by the family because they came out with what went on behind closed doors.. And I'm sure the Queen has had alot more stress with worse things during her reign than what they were saying. Did Harry have a gun to Williams head not to go ahead to see his mom. Fool.
Like you would know
@@liasummers1824 and you know
I'll never forget seeing footage of the flag being lowered to half-mast. I'd been glued to the news channels, hoping for the best but expecting the worst. As soon as the flag lowered I burst into tears, knowing beyond doubt that my Queen, who had her corination in the year I was born, had died. I rarely cry but I certainly did then.
As I’m watching this I’m Getting goosebumps and tears resurfacing… definitely LMQEII is missed….❤🇨🇦 I can sense Charlotte and Richard Eden holding back their emotions on remembering this sad Day for our LMQEII…❤
