Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s relationshipwas interesting, to say the least.
According toRedbook, Philip once belonged to a gentleman’s lunch club.
He also spent time taking tours on the royal yacht, Britannia.
His behavior started speculation that he may have been having an affair.
While the affair rumors were never officially confirmed, Philip was known to have multiple female friends.
Some of whom he was very close to.
Jobson claims that Philip had many “very close female friends.”
However, his closest was said to be Penelope Knatchbull, Countess Mountbatten of Burma.
“He had several lady friends.
But probably the longest and most meaningful was with Countess Mountbatten,” Jobson says.
Countess Mountbatten was one of only 30 mourners allowed at the memorial due to the COVID-19 restrictions.
There were very small numbers and there she was.
I think that shows a degree of respect," Jobson added.
