		</div><p>Britain&#8217;s Duke of Edinburgh will spend a fourth night in hospital where he is being looked after “very well” for treatment relating to a “pre-existing condition”.</p>
<p>Prince Philip has been cared for at the King Edward VII’s Hospital in central London since his planned admission on Friday.</p>
<p>His admittance to the private hospital, which has been treating members of the royal family for decades, was described as a “precautionary measure” by Buckingham Palace.</p>
<p>Photographers and TV crews were stationed outside the building on Monday evening as police stood guard and royal protection officers waited in cars.</p>
<p>Asked about the 98-year-old’s health, his eldest son the Prince of Wales told reporters on Monday: “He’s being looked after very well in hospital.</p>
<p>“At the moment that’s all we know.”</p>
<p>During the visit to flood-hit communities in South Yorkshire, Charles added: “When you get to that age things don’t work so well.”</p>
<p>The duke, who turned 98 in June, has generally enjoyed good health, appearing to recover well from a planned hip replacement operation in April 2018.</p>
<p>According to reports, his admission follows a spell of ill health – the Sun quoted a royal source saying the duke had a fall recently, while the Mail reported he had been battling a flu-like condition.</p>
<p>Philip escaped with minor injuries after a dramatic car crash near Sandringham in January, but in the past decade has been admitted to hospital for abdominal surgery, bladder infections and a blocked coronary artery.</p>
<p>Philip is known for his “no fuss” approach and is unlikely to receive many visitors while he is being treated at the hospital.</p>
<p>Buckingham Palace would not go into details about Philip’s pre-existing condition, or the nature of his treatment, but there is likely to be concern for the duke among well-wishers given his age.</p>
<p>The duke was not taken by ambulance and was expected to be in hospital for a few days.</p>
<p>Philip’s decision to retire from public duties during 2017 was not health-related, Buckingham Palace said at the time of the announcement.</p>
