It's been a busy time for Charles, following a two-day trip to India and then a tour of New Zealand with his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall. The heir to the throne then travelled to the Solomon Islands to carry out engagements, focusing on ocean preservation and climate change.
Prince Philip retired from public duties in August 2017, aged 96, and is believed to split his time between Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate and Windsor Castle. He attended the weddings of his grandson Prince Harry to Meghan Markle, and granddaughter Princess Eugenie to Jack Brooksbank in 2018. Last week marked the Queen and the Duke's 72nd wedding anniversary, however the 93-year-old monarch was in London to present Sir David Attenborough with an award on that evening.
