Princess Anne gives positive health update after visiting Duke of Edinburgh in hospital

Princess Anne has given a positive health update after visiting her father, the Duke of Edinburgh, in hospital.

Leaving the King Edward VII Hospital where Philip, 96, has been recuperating, she was asked how the Duke was doing.

"He's on good form," she said.

Princess Anne is believed to be the first member of the royal family to visit him after his hip operation last Tuesday.

At the time, Buckingham Palace said the duke was in "good spirits" and "progressing satisfactorily".
