Tuesday evening, The Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip was admitted to the King Edward VII hospital "as a precautionary measure" after feeling unwell, according to sources from Buckingham Palace.

The source added that the Duke feeling unwell had nothing to do with the coronavirus, noting that he traveled by car to the hospital after receiving doctor's advice to go to a hospital.

They indicated that the Duke, who is set to celebrate his 100th birthday in June, was in good spirits and is expected to remain in the hospital for a few days.

Notably, Prince Philip has been a hospital regular over the past few years, most recently in 2019 when he received treatment for a "pre-existing health condition." He was discharged on Christmas Eve after four nights and was driven to Sandringham, where he spent Christmas with the Queen.

He also received treatment for various health conditions over the years including a blocked coronary artery in 2011, a bladder infection in 2012, and surgery on his abdomen in June 2013.
