Autumn and Peter Phillips arrive together for the final day of the Cheltenham Festival


Peter and Autumn Phillips prove they have remained on good terms despite their split as they attended Cheltenham Festival together today.

The estranged couple, who announced their separation last month, put on a united front as they arrived for the Cheltenham Gold Cup on the final day of the racing event. 

However, it couldn’t be said whether Autumn, 41, had a ring-free wedding finger, as she donned a pair of stylish gloves – likely due to the growing concern regarding the coronavirus epidemic.

The racecourse is just a short drive from Gatcombe Park, Princess Anne’s Gloucestershire estate where Autumn and Peter continue to live while they co-parent their daughters, Savannah, nine, and Isla, seven.

It’s the second time the former couple have been spotted together this week – as they similarly looked in high spirits when they arrived at the racecourse together on Tuesday.

It marked the first Autumn was spotted in public following the announcement of their split in a public statement last month.

Autumn and Peter announced last month that they had separated after 12 years of marriage.

They revealed they had informed their families of their ‘amicable’ decision to divorce ‘at the end of last year’ after deciding it was ‘the best course of action for their two children and ongoing friendship’.

The statement, released by a spokesperson on behalf of the couple, revealed the former couple have both remained in Gloucestershire to co-parent daughters Savannah, nine, and Isla, seven.

The statement issued by Gerard Franklin, their official spokesperson, read: ‘After informing HM The Queen and members of both families last year, Peter and Autumn jointly agreed to separate.

‘They had reached the conclusion that this was the best course of action for their two children and ongoing friendship. The decision to divorce and share custody came about after many months of discussions and although sad, is an amicable one.

‘The couple’s first priority will remain the continued well being and upbringing of their wonderful daughters Savannah and Isla.

‘Both families were naturally sad at the announcement, but fully supportive of Peter and Autumn in the joint decision to co-parent their children.

‘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.’
