Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom did not get to say goodbye to her husband, Prince Philip, before his death in April 2021. This was reported by People magazine. The last days of Philip are described in Hugo Vickers' book "Queen Elizabeth II," which will be released in April. The biographer recounts that the prince had been suffering from pancreatic cancer since 2013. Due to his deteriorating health, he stepped back from royal duties and settled on a farm in the Sandringham estate. The queen visited her husband only occasionally, and for the most part, they lived apart. On the evening of April 8, 2021, Philip had a beer. The next morning, he got up, took a bath, said he felt unwell, and quietly passed away. The queen was not by his side that day. "She was furious that he had gone again, as he often did in life, without even saying goodbye," Vickers writes. The Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip Mountbatten, was born in 1921 and had been married to British Queen Elizabeth II since 1947. Philip was the father of King Charles III and the grandfather of Princes Harry and William.
