Presenter Piers Morgan has expressed his heartbreak over the death of the Queen.
Buckingham Palace confirmed that the Queen had died yesterday afternoon (September 8) at the age of 96.
Piers Morgan’s tears of the Queen
In Piers’ latest column in The Sun, he acknowledged that the passing of the Queen had a profound impact on him.
His column began with the haunting words, “THE Queen is dead”.
He then sadly continued: “Even as I write those words, I can’t quite believe them, and it makes me feel incredibly emotional.
“I’ll admit to shedding a tear when the news came through, as I’m sure most people did. How could we not be hugely moved by this massive, seismic moment in the history of our great country?”
The presenter added: “Elizabeth II was Monarch of the United Kingdom and Commonwealth for my entire life. In fact, she was on the throne for 13 years longer than I’ve been alive.”
He proudly mentioned that the Queen was the longest reigning monarch in British history and comes second only to King Louis XI of France as the longest reigning monarch in world history.
He expressed: “That makes her the undisputed GOAT, the greatest of all time; a monumental, towering royal colossus who is not only the most famous person on Planet Earth, but the most respected.
The TalkTV host mentioned the Queen’s “aura of invincibility” that many of us can relate to after her sudden death.
Members of the royal family, including King Charles, Prince William and Prince Harry, travelled to Balmoral yesterday to be at the Queen’s bedside.
After the news of her death, Charles will now take the title of King Charles III.
