I wouldn't want millions of people gawking at my dead carcass.

We will never see this kind of history again .
Like it or not. She knew that this was going to be the last of it's kind forever.
She was going out, as to never be forgotten for that 70 years.

Queen Elizabeth lived and aged gracefully now her time has ended may she rest in peace 🕊️🕊️ she will forever be missed may god bless 🙏🙏

It's crazy how regular people worship a lady that did absolutely nothing for the everyday person. Insane. Worship a lady whose family probably killed or sacrificed to get power.

Much love to the family…I was a child when I first met her and gave her a flower, the smile and the thank you can never be replaced, she was truly royalty. Such a beautiful person inside and out.❤

It's not somthing we do in the UK. Simple as that .

[briannab]

It's even possible due to security issues that the coffin was empty and she was privately taken to her grave.

The British Royal Family never have Open Caskets! Never!!!

[ayanaflowers]

I'm sure everyone didn't mourn

[nomsantuli]

Glad it over tbh I didn't care for her. Let's get back to more important issues

Such a wonderful, elegant, strong & devoted Queen. My prayers to the family & the commonwealth.
However I think the note idea Charles got from when Diana had a card on her casket that only said, Mummy.

Lets be real its sad the queen died but do you really think most people who saw the coffin cared for the queen .. also for the bank holiday people just liked the fact that they didnt have to go work or school that day

[stevied]

Who care.
A ridiculous luxury life led. Doubt it was in that coffin anyway. Probably not given all the heat and the journeys and lying in state afterwards. It was an empty box .

[studio-keiq]

The real reason?why was a false one given?

[Swissbluemountain]

Because the real Elisabeth wasn’t there . She passed 2018 .

Guess they didn't want nobody looking at her like a sideshow, everyone seen how many people was there looking, millions even in TV for 10 days straight.
