Twitter was full of tributes to Her Majesty, with many comforted by the rainbows in the sky.
“Her Majesty the Queen sent us three rainbows at the exact same time she crossed that bridge. One at Balmoral, one at Windsor Castle, and a double rainbow over Buckingham Palace. She is letting us know she made it, and all will be well,” a user tweeted.
“A double rainbow, Prince Philip reaching out to take Queen Elizabeth with him to heaven,” added another.
“Wow. What a sign…a rainbow appeared as soon as the Queen passed. She is safe, guiding Charles and William from her heavenly vantage point. The rainbow says, worry not…be hopeful!”
The Queen dies aged 96
