Helen Mirren has paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth II following the monarch's death aged 96.
The Dame, who portrayed the Queen on the silver screen and on the stage, described the monarch as the 'epitome of nobility' in a heartfelt tribute social media to her one million followers.
In a post on Instagram, the Oscar-winning British actress said: “I am proud to be an Elizabethan. We mourn a woman, who, with or without the crown, was the epitome of nobility.”
