Buckingham Palace says the Duke of Edinburgh will attend the royal wedding — just a few weeks after undergoing a hip replacement operation.
The palace confirmed Friday that Prince Philip would attend the wedding Saturday between American actress Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
The 96-year-old Philip has largely retired from public duties and it had not been clear whether he would be feeling well enough to attend.
