Diamond Jubilee: 'Sad’ Prince Philip is feeling lots better
THE Duke of Edinburgh was “feeling a lot better” yesterday as his family visited him in hospital.
Prince Philip, who turns 91 this Sunday, was said to have been “desperately upset” to have missed the final Jubilee celebrations due to a bladder infection.
However, Prince Edward, who visited his father at the King Edward VII hospital in central London, said: “He’s feeling a lot better thank you.
“I think a good rest is what’s required. He’s in good spirits.”
Asked how the Queen was coping, the Prince replied: “She is bearing up but missing him.”
Last night, a Palace spokeswoman said the Duke would remain in hospital for a few days under observation.
