It's official: Buckingham Palace celebrates a new couple, Charles III smiles

King Charles III welcomes a new figure into the royal family and celebrates the couple's union and love

Each season, the British royal family offers something new, from gala events to everyday encounters, but they always give people plenty to talk about. In every gesture, members of the royal family reflect the present of a historic institution that continues to be watched by millions. In these encounters, affection and support become central themes, showing their most human side.

From the heart of the royal family, figures emerge who, despite being little recognized, are much more than just another name. But with every appearance near King Charles III or his heir apparent, all eyes focus on them. At events like Royal Ascot, these figures find themselves surrounded by a special atmosphere, where elegance and tradition blend and great encounters take place.

King Charles III's welcome greeting to a new couple

The annual gathering at Royal Ascot has witnessed a warm greeting from King Charles III to Peter Phillips and his partner, Harriet Sperling. After fulfilling his official commitments, the monarch went to the grass of the Queen’s Stand, where he greeted the couple. He posed briefly with them for the press in a special moment, the royal society debut of Peter Phillips's partner.

At this gathering, Queen Camilla also joined, exchanging words of welcome with the new members. "It's a pleasure to see you so happy and to accompany you in your debut together on this iconic British stage," a Palace spokesperson declared. This public debut of Sperling adds to her previous appearance at the Badminton Horse Trials, where she was introduced as Phillips's new partner.

Phillips is the son of Princess Anne and her first husband, Captain Mark Phillips, a man who has kept a lower profile. His partner, Harriet Sperling, is 40 years old and is a dedicated professional as a pediatric nurse for the NHS and a writer. She is known for her elegance and discretion.

The royal family and noble titles hanging in the air

Meanwhile, the issue of noble titles remains current in the royal family. Buckingham Palace keeps the usual silence about the rumors surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle regarding the use of their titles. However, conversations about the revocation of their titles continue.

Despite the tensions, the day at Royal Ascot offered a more relaxed scene, focused on a debut of love and joy. The royal family, in their role as hosts and unifying figures, continues to witness moments that strengthen their internal bonds.
