Queen Elizabeth II

Despite living in the shadow of Queen Elizabeth II, Philip forged his own identity and often advised the Queen on various important matters.

Prince Philip was a man who had a tendency of speaking his mind. Prince Philip attended an average of 350 official engagements a year on behalf of the royal household. In 1946, Philip asked King George VI for permission to marry his daughter Elizabeth. The King gave his approval and said that a formal announcement would be made after Elizabeth turned 21. Philip abandoned his Greek and Danish royal titles and adopted the surname Mountbatten from his mother's family, and had become a naturalised British subject. A British naval vessel evacuated his family, and an infant Philip was carried to safety in a fruit box. In 1957, he officially became a British prince. In the same year, he began his interaction with Princess Elizabeth, who was then 13 years old. Perhaps, it was a forewarning of the turbulent and unusual life that he was going to experience. During World War II, he served with distinction in the British Mediterranean and Pacific fleets. Today, in this article, we will walk down memory lane and take a look at some of the important aspects of the life of Prince Philip. Within the next three years, his mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia and placed in an asylum, and his father took up residence in Monte Carlo. Philip had little interaction with his mother for the rest of his childhood. It seems strange to think that Prince Philip was born on the dining room table in Mon Repos, a villa on the Greek island of Corfu, on June 10, 1921.
