(ANSA) - LONDON, FEBRUARY 22 - Prince Philip, consort of the 94-year-old Queen Elizabeth hospitalized six nights ago in a private hospital in the King Edward VII hospital in London following an uneasiness of an unspecified nature, "is fine" and remains inclined for now out of caution, so that doctors can keep "an eye on him".
This is assured by his nephew William, Duke of Cambridge and second in line of succession to the throne after his father Charles.
Pressed by reporters during a visit to a Covid vaccination center in King's Lynn, Norfolk, after the alarm caused by the unexpected visit to the 99-year-old Duke of Edinburgh in hospital on Saturday, Prince William essentially reiterated the meager official information disseminated by Buckingham Palace in recent days: information according to which the prolongation of Philip's hospitalization, not linked to Covid, was decided only as a "precautionary measure" given the age of Elizabeth II's husband, who in recent months celebrated the 73rd anniversary of his stainless marriage with the current sovereign and whose hundredth birthday is scheduled for June 10, 2021.
