Indeed, it was everywhere (Telegraph, Newsweek, The Sun, Independent, TMZ, Hello Magazine to name a few).
According to Royal Central it was The Telegraph that obtained the death certificate.

Thank you for sharing the Royal Central's link, especially for those without a subscription to The Telegraph. 
On Prince Philip's death certificate, the Cause of Death was listed as "old age", which was confirmed by Sir Huw Thomas, head of the royal medical household. I did not realise that "old age" could be listed as the cause of death on death certificate for those aged over 80 whose health is gradually declining (as observed by their long term doctor).

The official document was obtained by The Telegraph and revealed that the 99-year-old Duke died from “old age.” This cause of death can be listed on the death certificates of those who are over the age of 80 and whose health gradually declined over time while being observed by their long-term doctor.
|
Prince Philip's occupations were also listed:
Quote:
|
His first occupation listed on the death certificate was that of “Naval Officer,” and his second occupation was listed as “Husband of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, The Sovereign.”

Years ago in the UK family doctors would sometimes put ‘senile decay’ as the cause of death on death certificates of their very old patients. Means the same thing, I suppose.

It must come from some publication.

The Royal Central links to a Telegraph article which is billed as an "exclusive", so the certificate appears to have been obtained by the Telegraph indeed.
Exclusive: Duke of Edinburgh’s official cause of death recorded as ‘old age’
Quote:
The death certificate reveals that his death was certified by Sir Huw Thomas, the head of the royal medical household, who was knighted earlier this year.
He declared the cause simply as "old age", an accepted description if the patient is over 80 and if the doctor has personally cared for them for a long period, observing a gradual decline.
|
ETA: Apologies, I see AC21091968 already posted the quote from the Telegraph explaining the cause of death.

Last Will?
I know, it is probably disrespectful. But is there any thread about the Last Will of Prince Philip?
At least I find it interesting, what happens to the earthly and wordly remains of one person and who was thought of in the Last Will and who was not...
Bunte online, the tabloid from Germany, cites some English outlets:
https://www.bunte.de/royals/britisch...-aufsehen.html
The Mirror is said to have reported, that the Prince leaves a fortune of around 30 million Pound or 35 milion €uros.
But this is only hearsay, because the Last Will of the Prince is secret. And The Sun reports, that one Lord Berkley wants the Last Will to be public, while one Lord Wolfson, who is with the government, wants it to be secret.
At least it is known, that Prince Philip left his beloved Ponies and his carriage, he liked to drive so much, to Lady Luise, his descendent.

In its July edition, Tatler is featuring (I assumed the main article and front page) the life of the late Prince Philip by including three royal insiders including their reflections and thoughts. These three royal insiders are Prudence Penn (Lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother), Philip Eade (Author of ' Young Prince Philip') and Hugo Vickers (broadcaster and biographer of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother)
Tatler celebrates the life of HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, in the July issue
Visionary, charming, frequently controversial, the late Duke of Edinburgh was the longest-serving consort in British history – the man the Queen described as her ‘strength and stay’. But what was he really like? Three royal insiders reflect on Prince Philip’s extraordinary life

In honour of the Duke of Edinburgh and the day that would have been his 100th birthday Queen Elizabeth received a new rose named „The Duke of Edinburg rose“ from Keith Weed, President of the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), at Windsor Castle last week.
Quote:
Mr Weed told the Queen: 'It’s a rose named the Duke of Edinburgh Rose to mark his centenary and it’s a commemorative rose for all the marvellous things that he did over his lifetime and for everyone to remember so much that he did.”
The Queen replied: 'It looks lovely' before added that the tribute was 'very kind'.

The Queen's marked what would have been Prince Philip's 100th birthday with the planting of the Duke of Edinburgh rose, named in his memory. Such a lovely idea.
