It was definitely a tissue moment.

Edited to add Harry said they were only 18 at the time.
I saw it - it was touching... to think the son met the last person his father saw in his life.

This comment relates to my post 14th June but I did not want to belittle that post about serious subjects with this detail.

I leave it up to Dibbers to choose which event of yesterday they prefer:-

Donald Trump's 74th Birthday

or

First ever President Obama Appreciation Day

Victoria became Queen Victoria on 20 June 1837 and ruled for 63 years and 7 months making her reign longer than any of her predecessors only overtaken by our own dear Queen Elizabeth II.
