Philip has officially retired from public life although he is still sometimes seen with the Queen during official events. He ignored President Donald Trump's visit.
He still drives a horse-drawn carriage on private property from time to time, but no longer drives a car since a serious car accident in January.
He gave up his driver's license at the time.
