STORY: British Queen Elizabeth II visited her husband Prince Philip in hospital on Wednesday.
Ninty-year-old Philip has "improved considerably" after spending two days in hospital recovering from a bladder infection, a Buckingham Palace spokesman said.
The prince was taken to hospital on Monday, part-way through four days of national celebrations to mark Elizabeth's 60 years on the throne, casting a shadow over some of the proceedings.
The palace said the prince was in "good spirits", but was likely to remain in hospital during the next few days, continuing a treatment of antibiotics for his infection.
The prince, who has been at the Queen's side throughout her long reign and rarely missed a grand state occasion, was a notable absence during some of the diamond jubilee events, including a thanksgiving service at St Paul's Cathedral and a horse-drawn procession through the capital.
The Queen visited after leaving a lunch she hosted for Commonwealth leaders earlier on Wednesday.
