The Duke of Edinburgh is responding well to hospital treatment after a recurrence of the bladder infection he had in the summer, Buckingham Palace said today.
Philip was taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary while staying with the Queen at her retreat at Balmoral.
In a statement, the palace said: “The Duke of Edinburgh is responding well to treatment. It is unclear when he will be discharged, but he is likely to remain in hospital for a few more days.”
