The Queen’s passing occurred just hours after Buckingham Palace released a statement, which shared that doctors were “concerned” about the Queen’s health and advised her to “remain under medical supervision.” The queen, who had been experiencing mobility problems for the past few months, had a busy week before her death, which included her appointment Liz Truss to the new prime minister three days ago. Now, those closest to the queen are mourning her loss while paying tribute to the royal icon. “The death of my beloved mother, Her Majesty the Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family,” King Charles III, formerly known as Prince Charles, said in a statement through Buckingham Palace. “We deeply mourn the passing of a beloved sovereign and beloved mother.”
