Prince Philip latest news – Duke in hospital for 22nd day as Queen calls crisis talks over Meghan and Harry interview

THE Royal Family is in crisis this morning with Prince Philip still in hospital amid the fallout of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.

The Duke of Edinburgh, 99, is spending his 22nd day in hospital following an infection and subsequent heart surgery earlier this month.

His presence will be especially missed by the Queen as she attempts to ease the furore caused by Meghan and Harry’s sensational claims about the Royal Family, which aired in the UK last night and in the US on Sunday.

Queen was locked in crisis talks after the Royal Family was left “reeling” by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s bombshell interview with Oprah, it was reported overnight.

Buckingham Palace is yet to officially respond to the tell-all chat that saw Meghan Markle break down in tears as she and Prince Harry revealed the pressures they had faced within the Royal Family.

The Times reported overnight that the Queen had refused to sign off a prepared statement – with the monarch reportedly wanting more time to consider her response.
