Duke of Edinburgh dies

[life on mars]

Yes it must have been so hard to have been born into two royal families and then married into another. Very very hard for him.

Mentally yes, not talking about hard work as in a 'job' or 'life' , he was heading for his dream role as chief of the Admiralty when all that happened and the queen only 5 years into the marriage take on her role , yes its out of our scope and world , yes they are privileged beyond belief , however must have effected him personally as his identity changed beyond recognition as a young man , he jsut got on wit it , you can see it did not fit easy form his mercurial manner and outbursts.

Massive conservationist back in the 80's he was banging on industrial and economic growth likely to badly effect nature in a bad way ,way before Greta

I've no idea how you know so much about his personality before the queen became the queen, but ok let's accept you do.

He dated the next in line to throne for however long it was, and then had five years of marriage so I'm going to guess that it didn't come as the greatest of surprises to him.
