Asked by reporters about his father as he visited flood-hit parts of northern England, heir-to-the-throne Charles said: “He’s all right – once you get to that age, things don’t work as well.

Philip, who has been at his wife’s side throughout her record-breaking 67 years on the throne, retired from public life in August 2017 although he has occasionally appeared at official engagements since.
