Prince Philip left a central London hospital today with a smile on his face and a quip for awaiting journalists.
As reported by the Daily Telegraph’s royal correspondent, the Prince was asked if he was feeling better. “I wouldn’t be coming out otherwise,” he replied.
Buckingham Palace said that Prince Philip would “continue his convalescence” at home.

Prince Philip will be 91 on Sunday.
