He was born into the Greek and Danish royal families. I don't think he was British.


He's as British as the rest of the royal family. Which is to say, predominantly German.

Only a few make it to 99. What an incredible life. Hard to believe both his parents were born in the 1880s.



Both of my grandparents were born in 1875.

with the numbers limited to 30 people at a funeral right now in UK, I'm sure Harry and that B-list actress would be two of the first people dropped off the list...

Faux News was talking about him this morning saying he was 18 when he went after Liz when she was 13, shouldn’t that make him a child molester?

Fun fact: There will never be a queen of Morocco. Only males can be monarchs and the kings wife is always referred to as princess.

because the Queen is/was the heir to the throne (daughter of King George VI)

he's the Prince Consort, same was as Prince Albert was to Queen Victoria

None of that helps. I just thought that marriage to the queen makes him a king. Marriage to a King makes a woman a queen.....

It's already been mentioned ITT, but in male preferred primogeniture, King is higher than Queen. So you wouldn't elevate the non-royal bloodline (Philip) over the royal bloodline (Elizabeth). Therefore, Queens' husbands do not become King.

He probably cant either



There was a line from a movie about their life -- can't remember which one. And they were rehearsing for her coronation. And they got to the point where he has to kneel before her while she's being crowned. And he was like: "frick that. I'm not kneeling for my wife." But they eventually convinced him to do it.

And then afterwards when they're alone he says something like: "Well, I kneeled for you. So now it's time for you to kneel for me...."

If it wasn't actual home footage, then I'm going to assume that was a dramatic interpretation and not something that necessarily happened in real life.
