When visiting a Covid-19 vaccination center in London on Wednesday, the Duchess of Cornwall revealed that Prince Philip is "slightly improving" although he "hurts at moments," as has been reported by ITV News.

"We heard today that he's slightly improving," Camille (73) said. "So, that's very good news. We'll keep our fingers crossed."

A palace source early assured that Philip's hospitalization is in no way related to Covid-19. He and the Queen have both already received their vaccination dose.
