Regular expression to remove HTML line breaks at end of string

I'm trying to remove all trailing HTML line breaks from a string., e.g. <br> or <br/> etc.

So this:

<br /> remove HTML breaks after this string    <br/><br><br /><br/><br><br /><br  /><br/>

Must become this:

<br /> remove HTML breaks after this string

I checked here:

• Regular expression string matching any number of trailing characters in R
• Remove set of characters if they are trailing characters

What I have so far ([<br\/>|<br>|<br \/>])?, but that matches all line breaks including spaces

You can use this regex to match all trailing br tags:

\s*(?:<br\s*\/?>)+\s*$

Replace it with an empty string.
