Prince Philip in hospital for third night

By: AAP | International News | Saturday August 18 2012 9:02

 

Prince Philip is to spend a third night in hospital as he continues his treatment for a bladder infection.

The 91-year-old was rushed to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary on Wednesday while staying with the Queen during their annual summer break at Balmoral.

Doctors advised the Duke to rest today, meaning there were no visits from other members of the Royal Family. However, PHILIP is said to have been in constant contact with his relatives by phone.

He is expected to remain in hospital for the next few days and is said to be responding well to treatment for the recurrence of the infection he suffered in the summer.
