Queen Elizabeth II ruled for the longest period of time in British history
By Omotayo Olutekunbi
Queen Elizabeth II of England died on Thursday at the age of 96
It was said that the queen passed away peacefully.
On Thursday, a large crowd gathered outside the Buckingham Palace home in London, as anxiety over the Queen’s health grew.
According to AFP, over 100 people risked severe rain to stand outside the palace gates while top royals went to Balmoral in Scotland, where the queen was being treated.
The Royal Family announced the death on Twitter, “The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
“The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.”
The Queen’s children had gathered at her Scottish Highland home, Balmoral, including Charles, Princess Anne, 72, Prince Andrew, 62, and Prince Edward, 58.
Charles’ sons, Prince William and his estranged brother, Prince Harry, joined them.
Liz Truss was chosen by the queen two days prior to becoming the 15th prime minister of her reign. She was seen grinning but appeared fragile and was holding a walking stick.
A dark purple bruise on the monarch’s right hand was shown in one of the meeting’s photos, which caused concern.
In British history, Queen Elizabeth II ruled for the longest period of time.
