RIP Queen Elizabeth II
Queen Elizabeth II has died - sending the world into mourning for a monarch who reigned supreme for 70 years. King Charles takes the throne immediately and will be known as King Charles III.
The 96-year-old, who died peacefully at Balmoral early on Friday NZT, was the longest-serving monarch in the history of Britain and the Commonwealth, having acceded the throne in 1952.
Members of the Royal family had rushed to be with her at Balmoral overnight and in a statement at 5.30am (NZT) on Friday, Buckingham Palace confirmed her death.
