Just before the announcement of Queen Elizabeth’s death, a huge double rainbow was seen, spanning the sky over Buckingham Palace.
Those in present are said to have paused for a moment to observe what has been called a heavenly tribute to the 96-year-old and her 70 years in power.
The Royal Family confirmed the death of the longest-serving monarch in British history shortly after the rainbow emerged, saying, “The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.”
After the announcement that the Queen’s health was deteriorating, her family, including Princes William and Harry, converged to be by her side.
The Queen’s oldest son, Prince Charles is now reported to take over as King of England.
According to reports, the 73-year-old will succeeds the Queen as king with immediate effect.
