After Duncan's death, Macbeth feels guilt, paranoia, and a heightened sense of unease. He becomes consumed by his ambition, leading to a downward spiral of moral decay and subsequent tragic events in the play.

Macbeth's first reaction to the murder of his king is escapist. He doesn't want to think about it. His wife reinforces that reaction by telling him that playing and replaying the crime serves nothing but to turn the criminal to madness. Macbeth's second reaction is fearful, of being caught and of losing power. This fear leads him to consult the witches, and to kill Banquo and Macduff's family. Macbeth's third reaction is confident, from the witches' predictions of safety from all men born of women. This overconfidence leads him to brutalize the entire Scottish nation.

He felt nothing. He says, "She should have died hereafter. There would have been a time for such a word." He wishes that she might have died later, not because he wants her alive but because he cannot deal with it now. He wants to have the opportunity to take it in and feel the grief that he knows he ought to feel, but cannot feel at this time. Or, he thinks to himself after saying this line, perhaps he will never feel anything ever again. And then the Horror of what his life has become closes in on him, and he gives one of the most terrifying portrayals of an empty life ever written: "Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day to the last syllable of recorded time . . . "

He still loves her. He calls her "dearest Chuck" (even though her name is not Charlie). In Act 5, when she shows signs of mental instability, Macbeth gets a doctor to try to help her. He cares for her right to the end, and when she dies, the last thing which made his life worthwhile has gone. However, after the murder, Macbeth will no longer be bossed around by his wife. He loves her but will not be pushed around by her any more.

Depends what news you are talking about. If you mean the news that Macbeth is the new Thane of Cawdor, he is ambivalent. "This supernatural soliciting cannot be ill; cannot be good."

What is our response to Lady Macbeths death?

Most of us feel a little sorry for her. Yes, she talked Macbeth into doing the murder, but she soon found out that she had a tiger by the tail and she was not in any way in control of the situation. Further, the queenship which she had coveted at the beginning of the play has turned to ashes in her mouth. And guilt has eaten her alive just as it is eating Macbeth alive.
