Remembering Prince Philip, Husband of Queen Elizabeth II
Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh and the husband of Queen Elizabeth II, died on Friday at Windsor Castle in England. He was 99.
Announcer: “It’s easy to see the radiant happiness of the princess as she and her very good-looking husband-to-be posed for the cameras in the palace. In the evening, Londoners, who had been waiting outside the palace for hours, made their feelings perfectly clear, when princess and her fiancé came out onto the balcony.” Announcer: “Now the most triumphant of all marches, the princess and prince. Once mere Lieutenant Mountbatten in His Majesty’s Navy, march as man and wife toward the West door.” Announcer: “And his work ashore here is as much a part of his regular service as it was when he was at sea in the destroyer H.M.S. Whelp, for example.” “Main lesson that we’ve learned is that tolerance is the one essential ingredient of any happy marriage. It may not be quite so important when things are going well, but it is absolutely vital when things get difficult.”
