Meanwhile, Peter Phillips' ex-wife, Autumn Kelly, has found new love with wealthy Irish property tycoon Donal Mulryan. The couple, who had known each other for several years, began their romance in 2021, shortly after Autumn's divorce from Peter was finalised.

Peter Phillips and Autumn Kelly were married in May 2008 in a grand ceremony at St George's Chapel in Windsor. The event was attended by notable guests including the late Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip, and Prince Harry, though Prince William was unable to attend. Princess Kate, then not yet married, also attended, with many believing it was her first meeting with the late Queen. The couple lived in Hong Kong during Peter's tenure with the Royal Bank of Scotland before settling back in the UK with their two daughters, Savannah and Isla.
In February 2020, after 12 years of marriage, Peter and Autumn announced their separation. Their divorce was finalised amicably, with both parties emphasising their commitment to co-parenting their daughters. They released a joint statement highlighting their focus on the wellbeing and upbringing of Savannah and Isla, requesting privacy as the family adapted to this new chapter.
Co-Parenting and Continued Amicable Relations
Despite their divorce, Peter and Autumn maintain a good relationship, centred on co-parenting their children. In 2022, they both attended the wedding of William Hosier and Stephanie Phillips, with Autumn accompanied by Donal Mulryan and Peter joined by his then-girlfriend Lindsay Wallace. This event demonstrated their ability to navigate family gatherings harmoniously.
