Lebenslauf von Prinz Philip, Herzog von Edinburgh

By Jordi Bou

February 22, 2021 - Der Herzog von Edinburgh bleib im Spital für eine Periode der "Beobachtung und Ruhe". Er wurde am 16. Feb in das Spital aus unbekannter Ursache eingeliefert, obwohl das nicht mit Coronavirus zusammenhängt.

Prince Philip, who turns 100 on June 10, has been spending the latest lockdown with Queen Elizabeth at Windsor Castle where both received Covid vaccinations in January.

The duke was said to be in good spirits when he entered the King Edward VII Hospital in central London “as a precautionary measure” after feeling unwell.

He was last in hospital in December 2019, when he spent four nights at the same hospital for treatment for a “pre-existing condition”. He was discharged on Christmas Eve.

The duke is Britain’s longest-serving royal consort. He and the Queen marked their 73rd wedding anniversary in November 2020.
