Princess Anne remembers Prince Philip’s bedtime stories | Prince Philip: 70 Years of Service

[@Squicx]

Even just being announced by her title as "The Princess Royal," Phillip lights up immediately. You could really tell Phillip cared for Anne more than anyone else

The way Prince Philip cackled when the interviewer mentioned he talked to Princess Anne lol. Those two are versions of each other.

[@beastdclxvi5959]

That’s his girl! Of course!

[@travelsambtravelsamb8791]

The longest consort in history. He never outshined her and her strength and stay as she stated through the years. He worked tirelessly throughout his life understanding what duty meant and a wonderful companion to the Queen for over 70 years. The county is mourning a great man. My Condolences to the Queen and entire Royal family. Rest in peace.

[@pimpozza]

Beautifully put, Travelsamb.. 🤗 We have lost a truly great man..

[@donnalayton6876]

Bless Prince Philip, he was the Patron of 800 charities. He worked tirelessly for each and everyone of them said he attended all meetings. There were many if them he was the chair. He certainly was a remarkable man. The Queen said she knew he did not cheat on her. With all those charities I would say I believe her. He was too busy to run around. Plus his buggy driving.

[@sunnydaze3131]

If he's anything like most blue bloods of that generation, what was more likely to happen once bedtime arrived was not, "Would you like me to read you a story?" but, rather, "Why isn't he (or she) in bed? Fetch the nanny!"

My father was surprised at what I recalled as most memorable occasions with him were. To him, they were what he thought as a first time father, were part of his job as a father, to me they are still treasured moments 70+ years later.

The shock and then the realization that Anne was speaking highly of him and appreciating something he did as a father. He even tried to play it off like it's no big deal, but then realized how much of a big deal it was to HER. His eyes started get teary, even with all his strength in old age

[@essessessesq]

One thing i really liked about Philip was that when interviewers would ask him how he viewed things, and they expected him to have some grand, royal vision of things....he always reacted like the down-to-earth sailor that he was.....basically, he'd say "i look at it the same as YOU do....i'm just a man." The title of Prince did not go to his head....ever

I know Philip is old now and probably forgot a lot, but I have a feeling that what he did meant more to his children than it did to him. I know people have criticized the queen as being less affectionate than she should have been, but I think that can be said more for Philip as a parent than Elizabeth.

[@nostromoau]

Well you worry about the children themselves.....nailed it. Do what you've got to do...no room for self-doubt.

If we are lucky enough to have a good Father, it's the simple things we remember. We never had much money, I will always remember my Father finding ways to cook ( my Mother loathed cooking) desserts and sweets from nothing. Or massive plates of toast dripping in butter.

[@judyevancic4926]

Parents are just as human as anyone. My boys were very different personalities. My oldest was a rule follower most of the time. He was more focused. He seemed to be more connected to his father which was nice to watch. Geoff was his Dads because they seemed to fit well. My second son was a handful and was very a very social person. He needed my attention to stay focused on the rules and honor them. Nice way to say a handful. My daughter was stubborn at times and she became close to both of us. Quieter person.

The interviewer should've asked a better question. "How important was fatherhood" - uhhh... what sort of EYE-OPENING answer was he expecting..??? "Not very important at all." ???

[@travelseatsyellowlab]

Actually, I think it was an excellent question. All Philip had to do is take a moment to think about the values he wanted to instill in his children and share some insights. Instead he chose to be a cantankerous ass, which is fine but he could've declined the interview.

This video perfectly sums up the POV of a child and a father. For HRH Duke of Edinburgh reading bedtime stories may not have been the fondest memory, but I'm sure he has several memories of Princess Anne which to him are the fondest and as for Princess Anne her father reading bedtime stories for her is favourite memory of her dad in her POV.

He always came across as matter of fact. I'm not surprised he didn't think of fatherhood as a "role" he filled so much as what he was, as soon as he became one. I don't think people used always to think and speak of life as a species of performance art, although the idea was understood as a metaphor more than as an actual description of sane people's experience. That, plus he once recounted all the vicissitudes of his childhood as a member of the Greek royal family in exile and summed it up as, "Well, you just have to get on with it. One does."

You know Charles is the rightfull ruler and thats good - but i think there are people who would be better monarchs👀 but thats just it - nobody decides fate does - just like princess margret or the fact that edward 8. was unsuited (even a traitor) - the crown will land on charles head and maybe he will be an excellent king - noone can predict the impact of someone - and that’s why it’s important to keep the line of succesion strict and i dont like people advocating in skipping charles and things like that - however i do believe crowning the first born (no matter if male or female) would be appropriate- but not because of feminism etc just because the past has shown that queens are equally and until now way more capable than kings

Prince Phillip would have made up his own stories and made Ann laugh....."What was more important for you , being a father or The Queens Consort ?" Talk about placing someone on the spot. The Queen is supposed to be up there and closest to God, 'Thou shalt love The Lord thy God with all thine heart'. Is this the first commandment ? The Queen was bound to this commandment if she was going to be the best Queen. Prince Phillip was/is in that midway position.
