After 70 years reigning as the Queen of England, Elizabeth II passed away at the age of 96 on September 8, 2022 in Balmoral, Scotland. Whether or not, you were a fan of hers or support the British Monarchy, we can all agree that it’s the end of an era. And, that all royalty is mortal.
Of course, Twitter had mostly memes and jokes in regards to Queen Elizabeth’s death from those about Diana to the fate of her corgis.
We’re not saying they’re not valid — there’s a lot that happened under her royal reign that was much more than “problematic,” but we’re sticking with sharing the ones that are above board for the moment.
So, what happens now? Tomorrow at 11am Greenwich Mean Time, Prince Charles will assume the throne and be crowned the King of England. Camilla will become Queen. And the Queen will kick off an epic party with Betty White.
Some of Twitter’s Memes and Tweets About Queen Elizabeth II
1. Um, your queen is in another castle.

6. On Twitter? That’s not possib— oh wait.
The Queen's death could create one of the worst weeks ever on here. British people debasing themselves, 600-tweet colonialism threads, men in hats on horses on TV. A grief bomb followed by a magnitude 8 takequake resulting in an outbreak of mass amateur historianism. Be careful.
