Queen Elizabeth II's son Prince Andrew has spoken out since the passing of his father Prince Philip.

The Duke of York spoke to media after attending a service at the chapel at Royal Lodge Windsor saying, "I feel very sorry and supportive of my mother who is feeling it probably more than anybody else."

"He was a remarkable man, I loved him as a father. He was so calm. If you had a problem he would think about it," Andrew said. "He was always someone you could go to."

Phillip passed away at the age of 99 on Friday as the longest-serving consort in British history.

The Queen and Philip’s daughter said the Duke was her "teacher," "supporter" and "critic," according to CNN.

"His ability to treat every person as an individual in their own right with their own skills comes through all the organizations with which he was involved," she said in a statement Sunday. "We will miss him but he leaves a legacy which can inspire us all."

Meghan Markle recently announced that her husband, Prince Harry, will be attending the funeral without her.

Buckingham Palace confirmed, "The Duke of Sussex is planning to attend. The Duchess of Sussex has been advised by her physician not to travel. So the duke will be attending."
