A royal correspondent explains why Peter and Autumn Phillips' divorce may leave Kate Middleton without one of her more important friendships.
'We’ve seen them at polo together and Kate is really good friend with Autumn,' she said. 'In fact, she went to Autumn’s wedding as one of her first engagements on her own in 2008 because Prince William was in Kenya. He was away, they weren’t engaged at this stage, the wedding was at Windsor Castle and she represented the couple, and she’s been really good friends with Autumn ever since.
'It’s very hard for someone like Kate–you’ve got your own direct family and then you’ve got friends who you would trust and I don’t imagine there would be many of them. You have to be sure anything you say wouldn’t get passed on,' Mollard explained.
'For Kate to be able to properly talk to somebody like Autumn must be incredibly valuable,' Mollard added. 'She has a sister and a mum but most of us have more than a couple of people we can confide in. You just have to hope that relationship doesn’t change. Being in the Royal Family, at times, must be incredibly lonely. To gave allies is very important.'
Peter and Autumn, who have been married for 12 years, will share custody of their two children - Savannah, nine, and seven-year-old Isla. Like this article? Sign up to our newsletter to get more articles like this delivered straight to your inbox.
