King Charles bid farewell to the beloved family member and the final conversation brought back emotional memories.
Charles’ father, Prince Philip, died on April 9 at the age of 99 at Windsor Castle.
Previously, while revealing that the last exchange he had with his dear father was related to his 100th birthday celebration.
According to the Mirrorthen-Prince Charles shared that his father had difficulty hearing, so he said out loud, “We’re talking about your birthday! What if there’s going to be a reception!”
Charles remembers Philip not even taking a moment and saying, “Well, I have to be alive for this, don’t I?” Charles replied: “I said to him, ‘I knew you would say that!'”
One of the other conversations that took place between Charles and Philip was also very heartfelt.
Royal expert Katie Nicholl mentioned this earlier in her book: The New Royals: Queen Elizabeth’s Legacy and the Future of the Crownthat Philip asked his son to take care of his mother, Queen Elizabeth.
She mentioned, “Charles also spent time with his father, and Philip said to him, ‘Whatever you do, promise me you’ll take care of your mother.’ Charles was very moved.”
It is important to note that the royal family mentioned the cause of Prince Philip’s death as old age, but recently Hugo Vickers claimed that the late royal suffered from inoperable pancreatic cancer.
In his book Queen Elizabeth II: a personal storyThe royal author shared that he battled the illness for nearly eight years before his passing.
