Autumn and Peter Phillips, still under the same roof (almost a year after their divorce)

Almost a year after the separation, Peter e Autumn Phillips they still live together at their home in Gatcombe Park, Gloucestershire, with the two daughters Savannah, 9, and Isla, 7. The son of the Princess Anna and the Canadian business consultant, who broke up in February 2020 later twelve years of marriage, at first they had decided to stay under the same roof for the good of the girls, to give them time “Get used to change”. A decision that surprised fans of the most beloved couple by Elizabeth II: living together as separated, although the two had said goodbye without hard feelings, to many it had seemed a risky choice, inevitably destined to create tensions.

A choice that probably lasted far beyond the intentions of those directly involved. Peter and Autumn could not predict the pandemic of coronavirus and the series of lockdown which would have forced them to stay under the same roof for so long, while preventing her, if she had wished, from flying to her homeland, Canada, to visit family members she hasn’t seen for months.

Peter and Autumn, as a source revealed in 2020 Hello, they had decided to divorce and share custody of the daughters later “Many months of discussions. Sad but friendly “. The couple’s priority has always been “the welfare and education of their daughters Savannah and Isla.” But maybe remain “prisoners” under the same roof, causes coronavirus, until a later date, it wasn’t in their plans. To most ex-couples of mere mortals it would seem like a nightmare scenario.

How Peter and Autumn are experiencing it is not known. To get an idea, we just have to wait for the hoped (by all) end of the pandemic. If Autumn will hurry up and leave the country estate of the Princess Anna, it will mean that even in the case of “conscious decoupling” coexistence is not the best option.
