Queen Elizabeth II has died at the age of 96, peacefully at her home of Balmoral.
Britain’s longest-reigning monarch died on Thursday afternoon. The news was announced after her family had flown in to be together at the Queen's Scottish home.
She had pledged to dedicate her life to duty and did just that until her final days, last seen to be in good spirits in a photograph after appointing her 15th prime minister just 48 hours before.
