Celebrities pay tribute to Queen as UKs longest serving Monarch dies aged 96

Stars including Amy Childs and Deborah Davies have paid tribute to the Queen following her death at the age of 96.

Messages of condolence have poured in from famous faces around the globe after she passed away on the 8th of September following months of declining health.

The Queen's health declined rapidly after she was seen bidding farewell to exiting Prime Minister Boris Johnson and welcoming new Conservative party leader Liz Truss to the role on Tuesday (September 6).

An announcement from Buckingham Palace confirmed that Prince Charles and Camilla had travelled to be by her side as she was placed under medical supervision on Thursday (September 8).

Her other children Prince Andrew, Princess Anne and Prince Edward accompanied by his wife Sophie, all rushed to be by her side as did grandsons Prince William and Prince Harry.

Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle have not yet joined the family in Scotland.

The Queen had been residing at Balmoral to rest in recent weeks after struggling with mobility issues throughout the year which led to her reducing her work schedule and public appearances.

Her poor health also hindered her involvement in her Platinum Jubilee celebrations between June 3-5.

Prince Phillip – the Queens husband of 73 years – passed away 17 months ago on April 9, 2021, just two months shy of his 100th birthday.

King Charles III immediately became the ruling monarch following his mother's death.

He will be officially crowned in a ceremony at Westminster Abbey with a traditional coronation ceremony after a period of mourning.

His Majesty the King shared a moving statement in light of his mothers death.

He said: ""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.

"We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother.

"I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world."

A tribute from Buckingham Palace read:" 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."

Tributes from stars and celebrities all over the globe have began to pour in.

TOWIE star Amy Child's took to Instagram with a picture of The Queen handing her flowers when she was a child.

She captioned the photo: "What a very sad day…"

Deborah Davies also paid tribute: "Rest In Peace to our beautiful Queen. It feels like we have lost a family member.

Girls Aloud star Nicola Maria Roberts posted a picture of the young Queen on Instagram with the caption: "An extraordinary woman and her extraordinary duty.

"Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth."

BBC Morning Live presenter Kimberly Walsh has also taken to social media to pay her respects.

She posted a picture of The Queen when she was young with the caption: "What a remarkable woman she was. Longest reigning British monarch.

"She dedicated her life to our country and lead us with warmth and integrity.
