Prince Philip’s Last Words to His Son Charles Were Just Revealed & They’re So Dark

Prince Charles just shared some of Prince Philip‘s last words to him before his death. Based on their conversation, it’s clear that the Duke of Edinburgh had quite the dark sense of humor!

Prince Philip died at the age of 99 in April 2021. Prior to his death, however, his son Prince Charles was able to share a funny conversation with his dad. According to the Prince of Wales, he and his father were discussing plans for what would have marked his 100th birthday on June 10 when Philip decided to share a witty remark. “I was talking to him the day before he died, we were talking about his birthday coming up,” Charles reveals in the new BBC documentary, Prince Philip: The Royal Family Remembers, as per HELLO! Raising his voice, Charles adds, “I said, ‘We’re talking about your birthday,’ because he was getting a bit deaf. And he said, ‘What?’ And I said, ‘We’re talking about your birthday and whether there’s going to be a reception.'”

Charles added, with a laugh, “And he said, ‘Well I’ve got to be alive for it, haven’t I?’ I said, ‘I knew you’d say that!'” The Prince of Wales reflected on the darkly humourous moment, noting, “it’s a happy memory.”

During the BBC documentary, the duke’s eldest son also recalled his childhood alongside siblings Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward with Philip as their father. “He was marvelous at arranging silly games,” he said fondly. “I mean, the fun of having obviously young parents was there were lots of chasing around and mad things.”
