Twitter addict President Donald Trump was naturally enough one of the first to respond on social media. "The United States condemns the terror attack in Barcelona, Spain, and will do whatever is necessary to help. Be tough & strong, we love you!" he wrote.

While Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said: “Terrorists will never defeat a united people that loves freedom over barbarism.The whole of Spain is with the victims and their families.”

The Obamas and Clintons also expressed their deepest condolences. Barack Obama stated: "Michelle and I are thinking of the victims and their families in Barcelona. Americans will always stand with our Spanish friends. Un abrazo."

Bill Clinton said: "Standing with and grieving for the people of Barcelona in the wake of this despicable terror attack."

While from the world of show business the likes of Liam Gallagher, Cher, Ryan Adams, Jennifer Lopez and Ellen DeGeneres have all expressed their sorrow. “All my love to Barcelona today," stated DeGeneres.

While Cher touchingly wrote: "Sending love & Condolences 2 all The wonderful Ppl of Barcelona.I spent time in your glorious city ,It Was filled with laughter & Beauty."

And actress Patricia Arquette said: "So sad to hear about this attack. I know there are many families heartbroken tonight. I'm so sorry."
