The Duke of Edinburgh is into his ninth day in hospital where he is being treated for an infection.
Buckingham Palace shared an update on the Duke of Edinburgh's health on Tuesday, saying: "The Duke of Edinburgh remains at King Edward's Hospital, where he is receiving medical attention for an infection. He is comfortable and responding to treatment but is not expected to leave hospital for several days."
The Duke, 99, was admitted on 16 February as a "precautionary measure" after feeling unwell.

In an interview with Sky News on Tuesday, the Queen and Prince Philip's youngest son, the Earl of Wessex, said: "He's a lot better, thank you very much indeed, and he's looking forward to getting out, which is the most positive thing, so we keep our fingers crossed."
Asked whether Philip was frustrated to be in hospital, Edward laughed and replied: "Just a bit. I think that gets to all of us, and then you can only watch the clock so many times and the walls are only so interesting.
"We've had some brilliant and lovely messages from all sorts of people and we really appreciate that and so does he, I've been passing them on. It's fantastic, thank you."
