英國(guó)菲利普親王退休 女王丈夫毒舌語(yǔ)錄盤點(diǎn)

4日，英國(guó)王室緊急召集英國(guó)及國(guó)際媒體記者早上8點(diǎn)聚集白金漢宮，外界最擔(dān)心的就是91歲女王和95歲親王的健康。此前，有多家媒體一度傳出親王去世的消息。不過(guò)這只是虛驚一場(chǎng)，原來(lái)是菲利普親王宣布將從今秋起退休。菲利普親王一向以“毒舌”著稱，曾多次在公共場(chǎng)合爆出驚人語(yǔ)錄，親王退休，英國(guó)王室會(huì)不會(huì)變得乏味？

流言四起：英國(guó)王室出大事兒啦？

Britain woke up Thursday morning in the midst of feverish speculation over the health of Prince Philip.
4日清晨，英國(guó)人民一覺(jué)醒來(lái)就發(fā)現(xiàn)了人們正在興致勃勃地猜測(cè)菲利普親王的健康狀況。

Overnight, the hashtag #BuckinghamPalace and the topics "The Queen," "Prince Philip" and "Royal Family" were on top of UK's Twitter trends, with tens of thousands of people riffing on rumours that the husband of Queen Elizabeth II had died.
前一天晚上，#白金漢宮、#女王、#菲利普親王以及#王室家族話題登上了英國(guó)推特?zé)崴眩瑪?shù)以萬(wàn)計(jì)的民眾都在熱議伊麗莎白二世的丈夫去世的謠言。

《每日郵報(bào)》網(wǎng)站4日凌晨1點(diǎn)左右發(fā)布的一篇文章稱，女王的宮務(wù)大臣召開了緊急會(huì)議。白金漢宮消息人士向《每日郵報(bào)》透露，這次會(huì)議“非比尋常”（highly unusual），而這次會(huì)議引發(fā)了關(guān)于“即將宣布的有關(guān)菲利普親王的消息”的熱議。

這則新聞很快就引起了外媒的注意，有人猜測(cè)——是不是菲利普親王“那啥了”？？？

英媒Royal Central稱，“有法國(guó)媒體報(bào)道了菲利普親王的死訊”。

而《太陽(yáng)報(bào)》直接在其網(wǎng)站上發(fā)表了“菲利普親王去世”的簡(jiǎn)訊，題為“愛(ài)丁堡公爵菲利普親王逝世，享年95歲。”（Prince Philip dead at 95, how did the Duke of Edinburgh die, etc etc）（該消息現(xiàn)已刪除）

推特網(wǎng)友紛紛熱議：“菲利普親王最近健康狀況很不好。”“我剛剛看到一條推特說(shuō)，有法國(guó)媒體報(bào)道菲利普親王去世了，但是消息并未證實(shí)。”

有人為親王祈福：

甚至有網(wǎng)友腦補(bǔ)了各種劇情：“他們可能要公開是誰(shuí)殺死了戴安娜。”

“緊急員工會(huì)議：女王不養(yǎng)柯基，改養(yǎng)臘腸犬了。#白金漢宮”

甚至有網(wǎng)友稱，“親王去世，英國(guó)降半旗”……還配了張照片，“有圖有真相”：

然而就在5月3日，菲利普親王公開出席活動(dòng)時(shí)還是“精神抖擻”，于是很多人對(duì)這則新聞的真實(shí)性表示質(zhì)疑。

“消息根本未經(jīng)證實(shí)，但是在我們等白金漢宮宣布消息時(shí)謠言四起。”

果然，白金漢宮的聲明證實(shí)，他們確有大事宣布，不過(guò)和網(wǎng)絡(luò)上的猜測(cè)完全不是一回事兒。

菲利普親王要退休 女王全力支持

Prince Philip, 95-year-old husband of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, is to step down from public life, Buckingham Palace has announced.
白金漢宮宣布，女王的丈夫、95歲高齡的菲利普親王將退出公眾生活。

"It is very sad to see Prince Philip stepping down from royal engagements but I think we can all agree he deserves a rest.
“看到他退休我們很難過(guò)，但是我想我們都認(rèn)同他應(yīng)該休息了。”

The royal family says Philip will continue to be associated with more than 780 organizations.
英國(guó)王室表示，菲利普親王將繼續(xù)與780多家機(jī)構(gòu)保持聯(lián)系。

網(wǎng)友們得知真相后，紛紛送上祝福：

“祝愿菲利普親王幸福快樂(lè)，安享退休時(shí)光。”

“一直都很喜歡親王殿下的幽默和機(jī)智。只是他有點(diǎn)小調(diào)皮。感謝你70年來(lái)在公共服務(wù)領(lǐng)域的杰出貢獻(xiàn)，菲利普親王。”

親王退休了，誰(shuí)是接班人？

有人擔(dān)心菲利普親王退休了，放下的擔(dān)子由誰(shuí)來(lái)?yè)?dān)。不過(guò)，親王能夠安心退休，當(dāng)然是因?yàn)橛?guó)王室不乏優(yōu)秀的接班人。

In recent years, the burden of public engagements has increasingly fallen to younger members of the British royal family.
近年來(lái)，英國(guó)王室年輕成員肩負(fù)公共事務(wù)的擔(dān)子越來(lái)越重。
