FREDRICKA WHITFIELD, CNN ANCHOR: There's another story, of course, that we are following for you. The death of queen mum at age 101 earlier today in London. She passed away in her sleep at 3:15 London time. We'll be bringing you up to date on that. Prime Minister Tony Blair is expected to comment on that shortly. We'll be bringing that to you live. And Sarah Ferguson has already released a statement. I'll read that to you.
"The duchess is deeply saddened by the news, as are both of her children, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie. And of course Prince Charles, who is a favorite grandson of the queen mother has been vacationing with his sons, Prince William and Harry, and they are making their way back to London now. They've been on a ski trip as they now join the rest of the family as Great Britain mourns the loss of the queen mum at 101."
