Prince Philip, 99, left hospital after a one-month stay and returned to Windsor Castle this week.
The Duke of Edinburgh was admitted to King Edward VII Hospital last month as a precaution after feeling unwell, with Buckingham Palace announcing at the time:
‘His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh was admitted to the King Edward VII Hospital in London, on Tuesday evening. The Duke’s admission is a precautionary measure, on the advice of His Royal Highness’s Doctor, after feeling unwell.’

Royal family members have given regular updates on Prince Philip throughout his hospital stay, from Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall to the Duke of Cambridge.
‘Yes, he’s OK. They’re keeping an eye on him’, Prince William explained when asked about his grandfather earlier this month, while the Earl of Wessex told Sky News: ‘He’s a lot better thank you very much indeed, and he’s looking forward to getting out, which is the most positive thing. So we keep our fingers crossed.’
