Peter Philips is divorced from Autumn Kelly and is the father of two daughters, like his partner, whose father is an oil magnate.
Peter Philips will turn 46 on November 15 and is one of the most coveted divorcees in English high society. Peter Philips, the eldest son of Princess Anne and Mark Philips (and first grandson of the remembered Elizabeth II), could be thinking of marrying a second time. Or at least that is what the testimonies of the people around him seem to indicate. A good clue is that he has appeared at Ascot, a place to see and be seen, with his girlfriend, Lindsay Wallace, 43, with whom he has been dating since 2021.
Undoubtedly, symbolic gestures like this are steps that the British tabloids, the tabloid press, which follows each of the Windsors' steps to the minute, take very much into account when making pools and prophecies that sometimes come true. Without exception, they cite friends of the couple who assure them that they are very happy together.
A marriage that broke up a year before they made it public
We must remember that Peter married Autumn Kelly in 2009 and they separated in 2019, although they did not make it public until February 10, 2020. A year later they were already divorced: they ratified the divorce agreement on June 14, 2021. They have two girls, Savannah, 12, and Isla, 11, whom we have seen on special occasions on the Buckingham balcony with the rest of the family.
Perhaps his presence at Ascot, which generated enormous expectations, is not the moment of greatest depth that brings Lindsay Wallace closer to the altar. That is why we have to highlight when they attended the baptism of August Brooks Bank, son of Princess Beatrice of York, and Lucas Tindall, son of his sister Zara. A joint christening held at the All Saints Chapel Royal in Windsor Great Park on 21 November 2021.
It is said that Queen Elizabeth II gave her approval to this relationship and everything seems to indicate that she has fitted perfectly into the family. Lindsay Wallace was a classmate of Zara Phillips (who married Tindall) and, in fact, they are so close to her that she was a guest at her wedding to rugby player Mike Tindall in July 2011.
Very close friends with Zara, Peter's sister, and together in the same private school
Actually, Lindsay and Peter have known each other since they were children, since they went to the same private school, Gordonstoun, in Aberdeenshire, and as an anecdote, we must emphasize that the relationship did not start off on the right foot, because it turned out that Princess Anne's son had skipped the rules of confinement to go visit his girlfriend in Scotland.
She is the daughter of an oil magnate with deep religious beliefs, she is divorced and mother of two daughters. According to Daily Mail, their relationship began once they were separated from their respective partners and it would have been Zara Phillips who introduced them, although they have not commented on it.
As we have said, there are numerous important events that the couple has attended, such as the Platinum Jubilee, and it is especially relevant that, although he was not present at the coronation of Carlos III, he did attend the Westminster Abbey the following day concert in honor of the new monarch held at Windsor Castle.
Much more discreet in terms of his private life than his sister Zara, whose avatars have appeared not only in tabloids but also in British gossip magazines, before meeting what would become his wife he had two other relationships sentimental ones that did not finish curdling.
Peter Phillips dated the American heiress Elizabeth Loro for two years and later was a couple for four months with Tara Swen, a flight attendant. His longest relationship to date lasted twelve years, with her already ex-wife, and now it is over two years with Lindsay Wallace.
