Britain's Prince Philip hospitalised

Saturday, 21 December 2019 11:05

The 98-year-old has been taken to the hospital as a precaution for the treatment of an existing condition.

The Duke of Edinburgh has been admitted to the King Edward VII Hospital in London where he will remain under observation for a few days.

Prince Phillip is said to have walked into the hospital unaided and sources say this is part of a planned visit rather than a sudden admission.

This comes as the Queen arrived at Sandringham, where members of the royal family gather for Christmas every year.
