Prince Charles, 73, heir to the throne since the age of three, is now king, and the Duchess of Cornwall is now Queen Consort.
As Queen of the UK and 14 other realms, and head of the 54nation Commonwealth, Elizabeth II was easily the world’s most recognisable head of state during an extraordinarily long reign.
This is her life, in her own words.
