"I'm nothing but a bloody amoeba," a resentful Philip reportedly said."I am the only man in the country not allowed to give his name to his own children."
He also had the reputation for being particularly candid with members of his own family. His eldest son, Prince Charles, said in a biography that his father pushed him into marriage. Philip also sent Diana letters as her marriage to Prince Charles fell apart, hoping to calm tensions and mediate the differences between them.
The sympathetic letters to Diana were often signed"with fondest love, Pa," and also expressed exasperation at how the couple's problems had been made public and embarrassed the monarchy.Queen Elizabeth II waves to the crowds as she rides with Prince Phillip in a open top car to celebrates her 90th birthday in Windsor, Britain, April, 21, 2016.
When Downing Street officials suggested that William and Harry might walk behind their mother's coffin, an anguished Philip reportedly bellowed into the phone,"F--- off. We are talking about two boys who have just lost their mother." A year later, the royal household said Prince Philip had once again been admitted to the hospital for exploratory surgery after his doctors revealed that it was necessary following"abdominal investigations." The surgery was conducted under general anesthesia and the palace later said he was progressing satisfactorily, but would remain in the hospital for approximately two weeks.
"His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh was admitted to King Edward VII Hospital in London this afternoon, for planned surgery on his hip, which will take place tomorrow," Buckingham Palace said in a statement.
luka_rasa Why have you not shown this in its entirety, please explain
Creepy schmegs
The Grifter’s spineless husband speaks! Great message undermined by history of rolling over for the Grifter who insulted the Queen and family regularly.
For the people saying his statement was too late, it was literally minutes after William's statement. Where's the complaints about that? Only Harry William and Anne have released statements - all today.
Abolish the monarchy!
TheView You should never have married an American, she is destroying the royal family
Lovely, heart warming message Harry. A few day too late no?
99 YEARS OLD AND PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED HE DIED

Thanks harry for this beautiful tribute
❤
A Very Sweet Tribute to his G-Pa. Poor Lad💔
klue_bear Beautiful tribute. ❤
After the horrible one line, impersonal response to his death, this is much better. Nice attempt to change public persona of what's going on with him. I hope he mends things with his family he let his wife throw under the bus while his grandpa was dying. Truly tasteless.
OMGOmniabsolute=Universe-Gravity: We all know that there wasn't any Science-Medicine for greater LONGEVITY because if it was, Prince Philip could have afforded it. 99 years is long time on EARTH but not long enough do all of Earthlings' deeds. RIP, Prince Philip, until ETERNITY
Master of the BBQ? I did read Prince Philip made London broil.
Screw not prince Harry.
From the response, no one gives a shit, cbs Oprah do but no one watches!
I am not sure how being the longest living consort is a great accomplishment. His longevity record is a tribute to his good health, but more importantly to the good health of his wife.
Why was Trump banned?
“My grandfather was an extraordinary man and part of an extraordinary generation.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
