As news of the EU referendum results traveled around the world, people everywhere reacted with both joy and despair.
The United Kingdom will exit the European Union after 43 years, as a majority of British voters chose to “leave” rather than “remain" in the bloc. The reactions from celebrities and nations alike were mixed.
British Prime Minister David Cameron announced his resignation in the wake of the news, while presumptive U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's Brexit comments invited mockery and ire in Scotland.
