Recently divorced royal, Peter and Autumn Phillips were pictured making their first public appearance together since after the announcement of their mutual agreement to split at Cheltenham Festival. Obviously their love for sports, plot to stay friends while sharing custody of their children still stands.
On Tuesday, Canadian-born Autumn, 41, dressed for the races in a black pussybow blouse and trousers, with a khaki tweed jacket by Really Wild, while Peter, 42, wore a blue suit and striped red tie, with a coat and baker boy hat from Holland Cooper.
The estranged couple enjoyed the company of Princess Anne, Peter’s mother and younger sister, Zara Tindall-who just recently became a racecourse director in January at the the Gloucestershire festival.
Autumn and Phillip who live nearby at the Gatcombe Park estate, with their daughters Savannah, nine, and Isla, seven issued a statement confirming their separation in February which reads: “As both Peter and Autumn are not senior members of the Royal Family, it was not felt necessary to formally announce their separation last year. However in light of media commentary the following statement is issued; after informing HM The Queen and members of both families last year, Peter and Autumn jointly agreed to separate.
Both Peter and Autumn have remained in Gloucestershire to bring up their two children where they have been settled for a number of years. Peter and Autumn have requested privacy and compassion for their children while the family continues to adapt to these changes.”
Philip and Autumn got married on 17 May 2008 at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle. Autumn wore a dress designed by Sassi Holdford and Princess Anne’s Festoon Tiara.
