DEEPLY GRATEFUL

A YEAR ago today the nation was plunged into mourning over the death of the Queen, after a long reign marked by dedication, devotion and duty.

And the King has paid an emotional tribute to his mother on the eve of the first anniversary of her passing, while thanking people across the globe for their support after he took over her role as sovereign.

Charles also reaffirmed his pledge to devote his life to service as King.

Politicians joined in the tributes to the Queen as the country prepared to reflect on her passing.

Charles said: "In marking the first anniversary of Her late Majesty's death and my accession, we recall with great affection her long life, devoted service, and all she meant to so many of us.

"I am deeply grateful, too, for the love and support that has been shown to my wife and myself during this year as we do our utmost to be of service to you all."

The King has remained at Balmoral in Scotland, where the Queen died, to spend time "quietly reflecting" on his loss, as well as his first 12 months as sovereign and "looking forward to the future".

As part of the commemorations, the Palace today released an image of the Queen personally selected by Charles.
