The first lady and the U.S. ambassador to the U.K. stood silently with Biden and his hand over his heart as he made the sign of the cross.

Biden told reporters after visiting the coffin that the queen was decent, honorable, and all about service, and even in private reflected the image she'd portrayed in her 70 years on the throne.

The president was among thousands of mourners who have streamed past the coffin in recent days.

Olena Zelenska, the wife of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, visited the coffin on behalf of her country after meeting with Prince William's wife.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Japanese Emperor Naruhito, King Felipe VI of Spain, and Queen Letizia of Spain were all photographed arriving at Buckingham Palace for a diplomatic reception hosted by the new monarch King Charles III.
