Royal grandkids visit Philip in hospital
Queen Elizabeth II emphasized the importance of family in her Christmas message this year and her grandchildren brought some Christmas cheer to her husband, Prince Philip, as he recovered in a hospital after a heart procedure, The Associated Press reports.
Philip, 90, had gone to the hospital on Friday complaining of chest pains, which doctors determined were caused by a blocked coronary artery. Buckingham Palace said Philip was "in good spirits" and would stay in the hospital under observation.
Prince William and brother Prince Harry visited the hospital yesterday, as did Prince Andrew's daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, along with Princess Anne's children, Zara and Peter. The visit came after Elizabeth's annual, prerecorded video Christmas message to the nation aired. The royal family reportedly watches the broadcast together every year.
