A heartfelt and touching poem penned by Princess Beatrice as a tribute to her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, has been unveiled to the public.
The poem, released by Princess Beatrice's husband, Edardo Mapelli Mosi, pays homage to the Queen and includes references to iconic figures such as James Bond and Paddington Bear.
Princess Beatrice, the daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, who currently holds the position of ninth in line to the throne and serves as a Councillor of State, granted permission for her husband to share the emotional message on Instagram.
The poem, crafted by their brother Albie Shale, acknowledges the Queen's leadership, guidance, and love throughout the years.
In the poem, gratitude is expressed towards the Queen for her steadfast leadership over seven decades.
It acknowledges her commitment to upholding values and dignity, rather than resorting to conflict.
The Queen is praised for her role in preserving the monarchy and navigating through different eras, from Churchill to Truss, her first and last Prime Ministers.
The touching tribute extends to the Queen's encounters with beloved characters like Paddington Bear and the fictional spy James Bond.
The poem's closing lines resonate with appreciation for the Queen's embodiment of truthfulness, justice, moderation, and humility, shaping the lives of those around her.
Edardo Mapelli Mosi, visibly moved by the outpouring of support for the Queen, was captured paying his respects at Green Park, where tributes to the monarch were laid.
He shared poignant images, including a snapshot of the Queen and Prince Philip on their wedding day, showcasing the enduring bond they shared.
As the nation mourned the loss of the Queen, a somber vigil took place at Westminster Hall, attended by Prince Harry, Prince William, and their extended family members.
Prince Harry, donning a military uniform, stood alongside his cousins and siblings to honor the late Queen, embodying a poignant moment of remembrance.
Among the attendees were Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, standing solemnly by the Queen's coffin, flanked by other members of the royal family.
The vigil, marked by a profound sense of respect and grief, saw Prince Harry join his relatives in a show of unity and reverence for the Queen's legacy.
In the wake of the Queen's passing, Prince Harry's choice to wear civilian attire at ceremonial events marked a departure from his military background.
However, during the vigil at Westminster Hall, he donned a uniform, symbolizing his commitment to honoring the Queen's memory alongside his family members.
The presence of the royal family, gathered in solemn tribute to the Queen, underscored the profound impact she had on the nation and the enduring legacy she leaves behind.
As the world bids farewell to a remarkable monarch, the outpouring of love and respect for Queen Elizabeth serves as a testament to her extraordinary influence and dedication to her country.
