KING Charles’s nephew Peter Phillips has announced his engagement to NHS nurse Harriet Sperling, reported BBC. A photo showing Sperling showing off her engagement ring as she embraces the son of Princess Anne, has been released to mark the occasion. A statement released on behalf of the couple said, “Both families were informed jointly of the announcement and were delighted with the wonderful news of their engagement.”

A date for the wedding has not been set. Their statement said, “Mr Peter Phillips, the son of HRH The Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips, and Ms Harriet Sperling, daughter of the late Mr Rupert Sanders and Mrs Mary Sanders of Gloucestershire, have today confirmed their official engagement.” The King, Queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales have also been informed of the announcement. Speculation around Phillips and Sperling’s relationship began more than a year ago when they were spotted together at social events. Last month they were also present at Prince William’s charity fundraising polo matches and in the Royal Box at Wimbledon.

Sperling has a daughter and previously wrote in Christian magazine Woman Alive about life as a single parent. She is reported to be a distant relation of the Duke of Gloucester through her late father. Phillips has two daughters, Savannah and Isla Phillips, from his first marriage to Autumn Phillips. They had married at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle in 2008 and divorced in 2021.
