A video shared on social media showed Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent, and Prince Michael of Kent getting of their car at the entrance of the club.

Since the death of his wife, Katharine, last year, the Duke of Kent has become the oldest living member of the British royal family.

While representing King Charles III, the 90-year-old  royal has continued to perform official duties despite appearing frail in recent pictures and videos.
