Prince Charles mesmerised by portrait of father Prince Philip in Edinburgh

[@theresareynolds3133]

Wow, now I really see why Queen Elizabeth fell in love with him, he was extremely handsome

[@1234cheerful]

When she encountered him he was even better looking than that! Look for one of the pictures from their first meeting! Oh, and much more accomplished and serious than anyone she knew.

[@ronnie7075]

Oh Prince Philip was very goodlooking. When he was 16 years old dressed in Greek national costume doing up a shoe lace and looked at the camera, very lovely.

[@kathrynjordan8782]

A stunning portrait of the Duke of Edinburgh! A much younger looking Prince Philip though still stunning. I imagine that even Prince Philip would be stunned to see himself looking young.

“I fear there is little chance these sorts of schemes can help the plight of many millions of people unless we all face up to the fact more honestly than we do that one of the biggest causes of high birth rates remains cultural.” Prince Philip

[@jacquelinebarber-dixon5316]

@@stylecakes26 Your attempt to slander Prince Philip is appalling When Prince Philip made that statement, he was attempting to bring the world's attention to how cultural practices in some countries contributes to the high infant death in those countries. He was attempting to encourage wealthier countries to do more to help poor improve health care for pregnant women and infants in countries with high death rates for mothers and newborns. Prince Philip was identifying one of the barriers to reducing the infant mortality rate in some countries. You are correct that Prince Philip was the father of 4 children by one woman. That is a vastly different situation than in some of the poorer countries where polygamy is still culturally acceptable and is still practiced. In these countries in which polygamy is CULTURALLY acceptable, one man may have multiple wives (sometimes between 2, 3, 4, 5 or more wives) with each wife sometimes having between 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or more children. In some of these countries, which practice polygamy, health care is sometimes poor and expectant mothers and newborns don't get the prenatal care, postnatal and neonatal care that they need.

[@kathrynkildow3743]
