General
Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, discharged from King Edward VII hospital
Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, has left hospital after spending nearly a month under care for several illnesses.
He left King Edward VII private hospital in central London in a black BMW with a police escort on Tuesday morning local time.
The duke, 99, had been recovering there after undergoing a heart procedure at St Bartholomew’s hospital two weeks ago.
He was initially admitted to King Edward VII on February 16 on the advice of the royal doctor after feeling unwell for several days.
It was later confirmed by Buckingham Palace that he was initially being treated for an infection.
At nearly 28 days, it is the longest-ever hospital stay for the duke.
More to come.
