We owe her the sincerest debt that any family can owe to a mother, for her love, affection, guidance and example. Queen Elizabeth's was a life well lived, with promises kept. Her death brings a deep sorrow to us. I renew this promise of eternal service to you all today," said Charles III.

Her devotion as sovereign never wavered, in times of change and progress, in times of joy and celebration, and in times of sadness and loss. As the Queen herself did with such unswerving devotion, I now solemnly pledge myself for all the remaining time that God gives me, to keep constitutional principles at the heart of our nation. Wherever you live in the United Kingdom or in the realms and territories around the world and whatever your background and beliefs, I will endeavor to serve you with loyalty, respect and love, as I have done throughout my life," added the King. young.

At the end of the speech King Charles III also had a message for his late mother.

“And to my dear mom, as you embark on the extraordinary journey to join me, I just want to say this: thank you.

Thank you for your love, and devotion to our family and the family of nations that you have served so diligently all these years."
