Stacey Solomon has said she is thinking of people who are finding Queen Elizabeth II 's passing "so sad and difficult", despite her past criticism of the Royal Family.
The Loose Women presenter, 32, took to Instagram on Monday to share a newly released photograph of the Queen, as the monarch was laid to rest.
In the sweet picture, Her Majesty can be seen beaming for the camera as she wore a pale blue dress matched with her favourite three-strand pearl necklace and earrings.
Alongside the snap, Stacey wrote: "Thinking of everyone finding today so sad & difficult. And thinking of all of those who have ever lost a beloved person in their lives. Saying goodbye forever is always hard," adding a white heart emoji.
Stacey's support comes after she previously admitted that she personally "doesn't get the point" of the Royal family.
Appearing on the ITV panel show in 2018 - alongside Christine Lampard, Linda Robson and Jane Moore - the group discussed how Meghan Markle could modernise the monarchy when the topic came up.
Stacey said: "I don’t get why we’re so obsessed with these humans that are exactly the same.
"It could be us four sitting there I just don’t get it."
Jane pointed out how they are "becoming like celebrities," when Stacey added: "To me, that's all they are, they're celebrities."
Linda then waded in saying: "I love the Queen, and she’s always worked really hard."
Stacey continued: "But I would work hard if the whole country paid for me to have like 12 houses."
Jane quickly corrected her on this point, explaining how much UK citizens actually contribute.
She said: "They don’t pay for all of the houses. We contribute about £39 million a year. It costs £300 million a year to run the royal family."
"It’s freezing cold outside and people are homeless and these people have houses to spare," Stacey continued.
"And it does sometimes become a little bit frustrating because I don’t see the purpose of all of that money going to this entire family. Sorry, sorry to everyone!"
Royals wiped away tears and sang along to the national anthem as the state funeral of the late Queen Elizabeth II drew to a close earlier today.
