Autumn Phillips remains firmly entrenched within the inner circle of the royal family. Despite her divorce from Peter Phillips in 2021, the 46-year-old showed her support for her former brother-in-law Mike Tindall at his annual golfing event on Friday.
Accompanied by her partner Donal Mulryan, the mother-of-two enthusiastically posed for photos while participating in the ISPS Handa Mike Tindall Celebrity Golf Classic tournament, an event that raises funds for Parkinson’s each year.
During the festivities, Autumn shared light-hearted moments, including riding in a golf buggy with Zara Tindall and Princess Anne’s lady-in-waiting, Dolly Maude. She also shared affectionate moments with Mike during the event, which took place at the Belfry Hotel and Resort in Sutton Coldfield. Both Autumn and Donal appeared to be in high spirits as they were captured in photographs together.
Their public debut as a couple was at the Cirencester horse trials in March 2022, where they were seen alongside Autumn’s former sister-in-law Zara and her family.
In February 2020, Peter and Autumn confirmed their separation in 2019, and their divorce was finalized in June 2021, as announced in a statement released on their behalf: “Mr. Peter Phillips and Mrs. Autumn Phillips are pleased to be able to report that the financial aspects of their divorce have been resolved through agreement, the terms of which have been approved and ordered by the High Court today.
“Whilst this is a sad day for Peter and Autumn, they continue to put the wellbeing and upbringing of their wonderful daughters Savannah and Isla first and foremost.”
Not much is known about Autumn’s partner Donal, but he is the founder of the UK development and construction company Rockwell, and the website for the company has shared some information on his career.
It reads: “With over 30 years of experience, Donal has delivered more than 6 million sq ft of UK hotel, residential and commercial property. Throughout his career, he has successfully delivered award-winning, iconic buildings in London, Manchester, Leeds and Dublin.Â
“Donal is a Patron of the Patchwork Foundation, which seeks to engage young people from disadvantaged and minority communities in politics and civil society.”
