Speaking with Insider, a Buckingham Palace spokesperson on Saturday declined to provide an additional update on Prince Philip's status, but referenced a statement issued Wednesday saying that the duke was staying a second night in the hospital as a "precautionary measure."

"His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh was admitted to the King Edward VII Hospital in London, on Tuesday evening. The Duke's admission is a precautionary measure, on the advice of His Royal Highness's Doctor, after feeling unwell," the palace spokesperson said. "The Duke is expected to remain in hospital for a few days of observation and rest."

The duke's condition is unrelated to COVID-19, royal correspondent Victoria Murphy reported on Wednesday.

The King Edward VII Hospital's website states that visitors are "only considered in exceptional circumstances" due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

"One visitor will be permitted to visit. No children will be permitted to visit. The health, safety and well-being of our patients, family, carers and staff remain our absolute priority," according to the hospital's guidelines.

On Thursday, a royal source told The Sun's royal correspondent Matt Wilkinson: "The Duke is in good spirits."

Representatives for the Prince of Wales did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
