Billie Shepherd shared her son Arthur’s reaction to the news of the Queen’s death. Her Majesty passed away at the age of 96 on Thursday 8 September after 70 years on the throne. Discussing the moment she told her five year old son, Billie, who is currently pregnant with her third child, described Arthur’s response as “quite sweet”.
