Palace: Prince Philip has infection, will stay in hospital

Associated Press  

LONDON — Prince Philip is “comfortable” in a London hospital where he is being treated for an infection, Buckingham Palace said Tuesday. The palace said Philip, the 99-year-old husband of Queen Elizabeth II, is “comfortable and responding to treatment but is not expected to leave hospital for several days.” He was admitted to the private King Edward VII’s Hospital a week ago after feeling ill. Philip’s youngest son, Prince Edward, told Sky News that his father was “a lot better.” Edward said “he’s looking forward to getting out, which is the most positive thing, so we keep our fingers crossed.” Other members of the royal family have continued their official duties during Philip’s hospitalization. Philip, whose 100th birthday is in June, married Elizabeth in 1947 at London’s Westminster Abbey five years before she became queen.
