He was taken to a waiting car in a wheelchair and returned to Windsor Castle, the royal residence west of London, waving to those outside as he arrived.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;His Royal Highness wishes to thank all the medical staff who looked after him at both King Edward VII&#x27;s Hospital and St Bartholomew&#x27;s Hospital, and everyone who has sent their good wishes,&quot; Buckingham Palace said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>A royal source said the prince was in good spirits.<\/p>\n<p>Since being admitted, the duke has been publicly visited only by his eldest son Prince Charles, the heir to the throne.<\/p>\n<p>The queen, 94, has remained at Windsor Castle where the couple have been staying during the coronavirus pandemic, and has continued to carry out her official duties by video.<\/p>\n<p>Both she and Philip have received their first Covid-19 vaccine dose.<\/p>\n<p>The Greek-born prince, who turns 100 in June, has required hospital treatment a number of times in the last decade for a recurrence of a bladder infection.<\/p>\n<p>At Christmas in 2011 he had an operation to clear a blocked artery in his heart after being rushed to hospital with chest pains.<\/p>\n<p>During his latest hospital stay, the royal family has been embroiled in a crisis after his and Elizabeth&#x27;s grandson Prince Harry and his wife Meghan gave a televised interview to Oprah Winfrey.<\/p>\n<p>During the interview, Meghan said a member of the royal family had made a racist comment while Harry criticized his relatives for failing to stand up to what he regarded as abusive press treatment of his wife.<\/p>\n<p>Harry also said his father, Charles, had let him down and that he had felt trapped in his royal life.<\/p>\n<p>The comments led Buckingham Palace to issue a statement on the queen&#x27;s behalf saying she was saddened by what they had said, while Harry&#x27;s elder brother William told reporters: &quot;We&#x27;re very much not a racist family.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Philip, who has been at the queen&#x27;s side throughout her 69-year reign, has always been considered the patriarch of the royal family privately, while always deferring to his wife in public and over state affairs.<\/p>\n<p>However, since he retired from public life in 2017 he has taken more of a backseat role, with Prince Charles and Prince William, both future kings, taking on greater responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/03\/16\/britains-prince-philip-leaves-hospital-after-treatment.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Reuters witness said the duke left the King Edward hospital shortly after 10.30 GMT on Tuesday.
