No, Harry, I haven't been away too long. Lord
LOUIS Mountbatten was Philip's uncle.
From wikipedia:
Philip was originally a royal prince of Greece and Denmark, and thus a member of the Danish-German House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, but renounced these titles shortly before his marriage and adopted the surname of his maternal grandparents, to become known as
Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten.
