Probably not a lot, and it would not be the first time according to an insider with knowledge of the situation. That would be Samantha Markle, Harry’s sister-in-law.
According to her, Philip had a “rough time” after Harry rejected the royal family and proceeded to air dirty laundry to Oprah Winfrey—while Philip was on his death bed.

Meghan Markle’s sister Samantha Markle told the Daily Star that Meghan and Harry’s, “actions against the royal family and the racial mudslinging that took place in the media was so hurtful and egregious that you can’t take back the spoken word.”
“But there are some things that you can see you can forgive, but it seems to be an ongoing thing, one insult after the other after the other, and people can only take so much before the impression is solidified.” For her part, Samantha did not take the mudslinging lightly, she is suing her sister for defamation of character.

She later added, “Especially for this memorial and after everything that has transpired, Prince Philip certainly seemed to have a rough time in his last days. Watching the Royal Family being attacked in the media by Meghan and Harry, all things considered, it seems to have been a heartbreaking journey for the Royal Family.”
She’s not wrong. What did Harry’s family ever do to deserve the endless trashing he and Meghan have given them for the last two years? Showing incredible restraint, the family has taken the high road even as Meghan was accused just this week of mocking the queen.

Samantha is of the opinion that: “Maybe Prince Harry feels bad about that but the least he could have done was to show up, pay respect. If he and Meghan are such humanitarians, you can’t take back the spoken word but the onus is on him to bridge that gap and show up humbly and show some remorse at a minimum.”
Then she savaged his excuse of not being “safe” for missing the memorial: “To put something as petty as security ahead of the obvious ethical, humane military and royal respect, it doesn’t make sense, it’s sad.” Are you listening Harry and Meghan?
