That morning, he went to the bathroom, helped by a nurse.”Brandreth, a former Conversative MP and now Chancellor of the University of Chester, claims that Prince Philip said he felt “a little faint” and wanted help to go back into bed when he came back into the room.“The nurse called the Duke’s valet and the Queen’s page, Paul Whybrew, for help — and he died before the Queen could be called.

Kate Middleton’s ‘cold’ and ‘secret’ nickname revealed: book
