The 99-year-old Prince Philip felt uncomfortable and was transferred to foster care about a week ago. Now, his grandson Prince William has made his first statement on the state of health.
The Duke of Edinburgh is still in the hospital, but his grandson gives the all-clear: “He’s okay,” said William (38) on the sidelines of a visit to a vaccination center.

Grandson William has now commented on the condition of his 99-year-old grandfather on the sidelines of an event:
The Duke of Edinburgh is “okay”.
British Prince Philip, who has been hospitalized, is doing well, according to his grandson Prince William. “Yes, he’s okay, they’re keeping an eye on him,” said the 38-year-old on Monday when asked by a journalist when visiting a vaccination center in the east of England.
The 99-year-old husband of Queen Elizabeth II was hospitalized last Tuesday as a “precautionary measure”. The re is still no exact reason for the hospital stay. According to insider sources, there is no connection to the corona virus – Queen Elizabeth II (94) and her husband both had their first corona vaccination in January. Philip will be 100 years old on June 10th.
Prince Charles visited his father
The British heir to the throne and eldest son of Philip, Prince Charles, visited his father in hospital on Saturday, but did not comment on his health.
The Prince Consort had repeatedly struggled with health problems in recent years. In April 2018, he had an artificial hip joint inserted in a clinic. In the past few years, Philip had to go to hospital from time to time because of various infections. In 2011 he had a stent inserted into his heart.
Philip and Elizabeth have been married since 1947. In 2017, Prince Philip largely withdrew from public life. He celebrates his 100th birthday on June 10th.
