		</div><p>The Duke of Edinburgh has been admitted to hospital after feeling unwell, Buckingham Palace said.</p>
<p>Philip, aged 99, who received a Covid-19 jab in January, was admitted to the private King Edward VII Hospital in London on Tuesday.</p>
<p>He was taken to hospital on the advice of his doctor and a palace statement said it was a “precautionary measure”, with the duke said to be in good spirits.</p>
<p>It is understood the decision to admit him was taken with an “abundance” of caution.</p>
<p>A palace spokesman said: “His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh was admitted to the King Edward VII Hospital in London, on Tuesday evening.</p>
<p>“The Duke’s admission is a precautionary measure, on the advice of His Royal Highness’s Doctor, after feeling unwell.</p>
<p>“The Duke is expected to remain in hospital for a few days of observation and rest.”</p>
<p>Philip has suffered a number of ailments over the years, including being treated for a blocked coronary artery at Papworth Hospital in Cambridgeshire in December 2011 and a bladder infection in June 2012, forcing him to miss the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations.</p>
<p>Exploratory surgery on his abdomen followed in June 2013 and he began to use hearing aids by 2014, aged 93. He later pulled out of a Battle of Jutland anniversary event in June 2016 citing a minor ailment which was followed soon after by his retirement from public duty in 2017.</p>
<p>He spent four nights at King Edward Hospital in December 2019, where he was treated for a “pre-existing condition” and was later discharged on Christmas Eve.</p>
<p>The duke was then driven to Sandringham and spent Christmas with the Queen.</p>
