Prince Charles has paid tribute to his “much-loved… dear Papa” the Duke of Edinburgh, following his death at the age of 99.

The Prince of Wales thanked the nation and people across the Commonwealth for the outpouring of loss and “touching things which have been said” about Prince Philip, which he said would “sustain” the Royal Family “at this particularly sad time”.

Speaking from outside his home of Highgrove in Gloucestershire on Saturday, Prince Charles said he and his family “miss my father enormously” as he paid tribute to a “very special person”.

“I particularly wanted to say that my father… I suppose the last 70 years has given the most remarkable, devoted service to the Queen, to my family and to the country and also to the whole of the Commonwealth and as you can imagine my family and I miss my father enormously,” the Duke’s eldest son said.
