Prince Philip's Secret Cancer Battle

0:00It's March 30th, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Entertainment and Celebrity News today. Your AI-powered entertainment report? A fresh biography on Prince Philip drops a bombshell. He fought pancreatic cancer for years before passing in April 2021, at age. 99. Aficia were back then called it Old Age, but this book sets the record straight on his long, private battle. Diagnosed in 2013, Doc spotted a shadow on his pancreas during a hospital stay and cut across his stomach to check. Vertic was inoperable, sparking talking might never appear publicly again. But Philip bounced back quick, chilling at Sandringham's Wood Farm before resuming duties that August. He kept going strong, retiring fully from royal gigs in 2017 to settle permanently at Wood Farm. The man outlasts the odds, living nearly eight years with the disease way beyond the typical survival window. On his final night, he ditched the nurses, shuffled to snag a beer in the oak room, then next morning bathed, felt off, and slipped away peacefully.
