The Watcher 314 Posted December 23, 2019 5 minutes ago, The Happy Reaper said: I initially read that as "...gone to meet his maker"! The more that comes out about Prince Andrew - not only the Epstein allegations but it is alleged that at least one enterprise he was involved with meant he gained financially - it should not be mentioned to Prince Philip in hospital as it could cause a serious relapse. One wag online thought a visit from Fergie (aka The Duchess) dressed as Santa's Helper might prove the final straw for the Duke of Edinburgh! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"He's being looked after very well in hospital," Charles replied. "At the moment that's all we know."' Doesn't sound too hopeful does it ! 'I don't want to get deathlisters too excited but this is starting to look to me like slowly but surely they are preparing us for the worst. It may still take some time though, not necessarily a christmas hit , but at 98, things can deteriorate very quickly ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably - but then they brief stuff out about him walking into hospital and laughing with doctors which counters the preparing us narrative. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,581 Posted December 24, 2019 Press filling pages with more articles about Harry and Meghan, Not sure they would if Philip really was on the way out soon. Queen described as frail - she doesn’t really look exceptionally frail.. the royal sources leak too much for a lot to be able to remain secret for too long.

Queen described as frail - she doesn’t really look exceptionally frail I think Phillip will survive whatever is up with him this time but he is certainly not a well man and getting close to the end, not a certainty he will die next year but wouldn’t be surprised if he died before we reach 2021. As for the Queen she does look frailer than she has done but she is almost 94 so no surprise really don’t think any immediate danger, has a good few years in her yet.
