Touching photos have emerged of the moment Tyson Fury paid his respects to the Queen by laying flowers outside Buckingham Palace along with wife Paris. 

With the line to visit the Queen’s coffin at Westminster Hall continuing to stretch as it nears capacity, members of the public have been queuing for the past number of days to pay their respects to the late monarch.

Several celebrities have been seen among the mourners, including David Beckham, Susanna Reid, Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, The French Dispatch star Tilda Swinton and boxer Tyson Fury

The videos – filmed by a passer-by earlier in the week  – show the touching tribute penned by the world heavyweight champion boxer and his wife.

The 34-year-old can be seen wearing a grey shirt and jeans, while his glamorous wife, Paris, dons bright pink trousers, a blouse and heels.

The pair linked hands and posed for pictures before Tyson lay the bouquet down on the floor with a message on its accompanying card.

The card read: ‘To Our Queen. Great may your bed be in Heaven. Love from Tyson and Paris.’

He signed it with his iconic nickname ‘The Gypsy King’.

They had earlier shared images of themselves taking the train down from their home in Morecambe, Lancs, to the capital.

His promoter has now confirmed the fight contract has been sent to Joshua’s team, leaving it down to them to sign to get the fight on.

‘The contracts have been sent to Anthony Joshua’s team. They will have arrived on Friday morning,’ Frank Warren wrote in his column for the Daily Star.

‘Now we wait for them to go through them and sign so we can get one of British boxing’s biggest events on. All our side is on board for this fight. Tyson Fury is eager for it as he showed last week by calling out his fellow Brit.

‘Since the passing of the Queen, Tyson has been respectful and kept his counsel while we work on the deal behind the scenes.’

Approximately one million people are expected to travel to London ahead of the Queen’s state funeral on Monday.
