Stacey Solomon's message minutes before the Queen's funeral

Stacey Solomon sent a heartfelt message about losing a loved one during the Queen's funeral.

The Queen's funeral will be broadcast throughout the day, taking over all terrestrial channels. The BBC, ITV and Sky News have suspended all of their regular programming in favour of rolling coverage of the ceremony.

People from around the world, including state officials and celebrities, have paid tribute to the Queen during the 10 day period of national mourning. Loose Women panellist Stacey Solomon also penned a heartfelt tribute empathising with those who have lost a loved one.

Just moments before the gun carriage arrived to transport the Queen's coffin, the presenter shared her message alongside a portrait of the late monarch. She said: "Thinking of everyone finding today so sad and difficult. And thinking of all those who have ever lost a beloved person in their lives."

Alongside a white heart emoji, she added: "Saying goodbye forever is always so hard." Loose Women was pulled from the ITV schedule multiple times following the Queen's death but will return as a regular fixture tomorrow afternoon.
