Many Remainers on social media became emotional at the EU's reaction to Brexit.
Among these was JK Rowling, who tweeted: "When your ex is so noble about the break up you'd almost rather they threw a drink in your face".
Others commented on the farewell statement Mr Tusk made:
Donald Tusk says: “We already miss you. Thank you and goodbye.” And for some reason, my bottom lip wobbled.
Mr Tusk also said he will have proposal for Brexit negotiating mandate on Friday.
He wasn't completely sentimental about Britain leaving, saying Brexit was about "damage control".
