Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, was Queen Elizabeth II’s husband. Born in Greece in 1921, he spent his youth in exile due to political turmoil. He later joined the British Royal Navy and served with distinction during World War II. Married to Elizabeth in 1947, Philip was a devoted partner and advocate for several royal reforms, including founding the Duke of Edinburgh's Award to inspire youth. A lover of aviation and cars, he lived simply and passed away in 2021 at age 99, marking the end of a 73-year marriage and leaving a lasting legacy as a symbol of modern British monarchy
