Will Prince Philip Show Up To His Birthday Party?

The Duke turns 100 on June 10, 2021 and sources are saying that he is leery of too much party fun in his name.

“While some couples may have found that intensity of being together stretching or testing, they clearly got on very well… they really enjoyed that time together.”
