Following the death of Queen Elizabeth at Balmoral Castle on Thursday, the royal family has reappeared in public to take in the outpouring of public grief for their beloved matriarch. King Charles and his sons Prince William and Prince Harry quickly left Scotland to return to England, but the Queen's other children and grandchildren stayed behind.

On Saturday, Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and the new Prince and Princess of Wales walked outside Windsor Castle to greet well-wishers and take in the floral tributes. Earlier in the day, Princess Anne, Prince Edward, Prince Andrew, and their children attended a church service at Crathie Kirk, a small church near Balmoral, and took in the tributes outside Balmoral, and yesterday, King Charles III and Camilla, Queen Consort greeted well-wishers gathered at Buckingham Palace.

Here, see all the best photos of the royal family viewing floral tributes to Queen Elizabeth.

William, in his first statement as Prince of Wales, shared of the Queen, "she was by my side at my happiest moments. And she was by my side during the saddest days of my life. I knew this day would come, but it will be some time before the reality of life without Grannie will truly feel real."
