Paralympic hero Tanni Grey-Thompson was left visibly emotional as she paid her respects to The Queen.
Thousands of people have been paying tribute to Britain's longest serving monarch at her lying-in-state in London. And on Thursday morning, Baroness Grey-Thompson also went along. She was seen in tears after reaching the front of the queue where she could see the Queen’s closed coffin.
Baroness Grey-Thompson, of Eaglescliffe, County Durham, who is Chancellor of Northumbria University, had met the Queen on several occasions thanks to her status as a sporting icon and avid politician, having been an independent cross-bench member of the House of Lords since 2010.
