Meghan Markle and Prince Harry pay tribute to Prince Philip

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's website has been transformed into a memorial page to the Duke of Edinburgh.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have paid tribute to Prince Philip on their Archewell website.

The couple are the first royals to release their own message following Harry's grandfather's death at Windsor Castle this morning.

A short message on archewell.com, set against a dark background, says: “In loving memory of His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh. 1921-2021.”

It adds: “Thank you for your service… you will be greatly missed.”

Meghan and Harry, who are expecting their second child later this year, are currently living in LA.

Announcing the news, a statement from Buckingham Palace released at midday read: "It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen announces the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

"His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle. Further announcements will be made in due course.

"The Royal Family join with people around the world in mourning his loss."
