King Charles has arrived back to Scotland to mourn his mother privately after she was yesterday laid to rest alongside her beloved husband Prince Philip.
The Royal Family will continue mourning for another week and will perform no public duties scheduled for seven days.
Their mourning period will officially come to an end on Monday, September 26.
The sovereign has left RAF Northolt on the private jet with the Queen Consort Camilla is by his side.
He landed in Aberdeen at around lunchtime.
Charles laid the Queen to rest during a private interment at St George's Chapel in Windsor last night.
The King's escorts removed their helmets and bowed while he boarded the plane with his wife, MailOnline report.
While in Scotland, he is expected to visit Balmoral, where the Queen died 12 days ago.
It is understood he may also spend a period of time at Birkhall, his Scottish home on the Balmoral estate.
He inherited from the Queen Mother following her death in 2002.
His return comes after the royals last night published an unseen picture of Her Majesty happily hiking in Balmoral.
The picture, showing the late monarch in her beloved Scottish residence in 1971, came after a difficult day for the family and country as they said goodbye to the monarch for the last time at a service in Westminster, before another in Windsor.
Alongside the image was a quote paraphrased from William Shakespeare's Hamlet which King Charles had ended his first public address to the nation with, 24 hours after his beloved mother's death.
Charles is hoping the Queen's funeral will "convince Harry and Meghan to accept the olive branch" offered by the family, a royal expert has claimed.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were seen in the UK for the first time since the monarch's Platinum Jubilee in June as the Royal Family reunited in grief.
They kept a step back during the Jubilee celebrations but were much more involved and in the public eye this time around as the whole world came together to pay tribute to the country's longest-reigning sovereign.
It's hoped that the couple's public involvement in the events of the last 10 days will show to them there is still a place within the family should they embrace the sense of duty and service bestowed upon them.
In a tweet, the Prince and Princess of Wales wrote: "Goodbye to a Queen, a mother, a grandmother and a great grandmother."
Alongside the words, they shared a black and white image of the pallbearers carrying the Queen's coffin, draped in the Royal Standard an Crown Jewels.
The Prince and Princess of Wales attended Monday's funeral with their two eldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
Charlotte paid her own personal tribute to her great-grandmother the Queen at her state funeral by wearing a small badge with a nod to one of her loves.
