The celeb couple closed their first London show by dedicating their final song, Forever Young, to those who lost their lives during the tragic fire.

Before getting into the performance, Beyoncé announced, "I'd like to dedicate this song to the families and friends of the victims of the Grenfell fire. God bless you."

The couple both wore all black with a green heart pin, a symbol that has been adopted to remember those affected by the tragedy.
