Fresh speculation has been sparked by Peter Phillips, the Queen’s divorcé grandson. He arrived at his nephew’s Christening to be with an old friend from school he had visited while in lockdown.
Peter (44 years old) was joined by Lindsay Wallace, 40-year-old oil tycoon, to drive to Windsor Royal Lodge for the joint christenings of Lucas Tindall and Zara Tindall’s child, Lucas, and August Brooksbank and Princess Eugenie.
Close family attended, which included Mr Phillips’ grandmother the queen. This was despite her fears that she may have to withdraw due to medical reasons. Close friends of the family, such as Prince Harry’s ex, Cressida Bonas were present.
Peter, Prince Anne’s only son, was divorced by Autumn in June. In March, he visited Ms Wallace’s house in St Cyrus near Montrose in Aberdeenshire. It raised suspicions that he might have violated locks to travel the 460-miles round trip from Gloucestershire.
The royal claimed that the visit to Scotland was to be a marketing consultant to company XF Medical. XF Medical was established last June to offer rapid Covid and anti-Bact tests to businesses. However, sources claim that he was ‘besotted by’ Ms Wallace.
We don’t know if Autumn, who is the mother of Peter and Savannah’s daughters, Isla (nine) and Savannah (10), attended the christening. For the benefit of their children, they continue to live with each other on Princess Anne’s Gatcombe Park estate.

According to reports, Ms. Wallace has been separated from her husband. Zara was photographed cheering, laughing and wearing a cream-coloured top with a pink hat at her wedding to Mike Tindall (2011).
Meeting granny: It is likely Ms Wallace would have been introduced to the Queen, given how few guests were in attendance at yesterday’s christening. The 95-year-old monarch was present to witness her great grandchildren being christened, despite fear that she might withdraw after having to miss Remembrance Sunday at the Cenotaph because of a sore back.
Daughter of a well-off oil tycoon, mother-of-two Ms Wallace, who has also split from her husband, is a close friend of Zara from their days at £40,000-a-year Gordonstoun and was invited to the royal’s 2011 wedding to rugby star Tindall.
Peter Phillips was three-years ahead of the others at the school. He also knew Ms Wallace for quite a long time. They are believed to have reunited at a school reunion.
A source claimed that the two had been keeping their friendship secret and only the inner circle of friends knew.
The ‘friendship’ first came to light when furious locals called the police on seeing Peter’s car at Ms Wallace’s £475,000 home in the village of St Cyrus in March.
Although officers ‘issued advise’ Peter claimed he was there for business and was therefore not in violation of lockdown rules. According to reports, he had visited Ms Wallace on August 2020.
Peter and Autumn, 41-years-old from Canada, announced their separation in February 2020. Their divorce was finalized in June.
Zara Tindall was seen wearing a black suit and pearl earrings when she arrived at the venue.

He was elegant in his cream coat and black hat as Ms Wallace sat at his front as he pulled into Windsor’s grounds yesterday. She looked at him from the sidelines as cameras took photos of royal arrivals.
Mike Tindall, Zara, and Mike Tindall came in two different cars to their son’s Christening. Zara chose black and pearl earrings while Mike opted for an ensemble of white and blue.
They have two daughters, Mia (7 years old) and Lena (3 years). Lucas was born in March. This occurred weeks before the death by the Duke of Edinburgh.
As she arrived with Jack Brooksbank, Princess Eugenie (31), cut an elegant figure. August, their son, was born in February.
Beaming Eugenie looked elegant in a silk white, embellished dress that she paired with an embroidered headband and blue pendant necklace. Jack, her husband, looked smart in navy suits, crisp white shirts, and a light-blue, patterned tie.
Prince Harry’s ex Cressida Bonneas was seen with her and Harry Wentworth–Stanley, accessorizing in gold hoop earrings, a gold headband and glittery gold accessories. Photo of the couple together

When Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank arrived in Windsor, they wore their auburn locks loosely (pictured).
The Queen had previously engaged at Windsor Castle but this is the first time she has been outside of a royal residence for a few weeks.
Penny Junor, commentator for the Sun said that attending the baptism of her great-grandsons would have been an important event.
She stated, “I have never seen two royal infants being christened together in this manner.” A christening for Queen Elizabeth is important because it is spiritual. Being there at the Church of England will also be very significant to her. Zara, Mike and Eugenie are very dear to her.
The Holy Water Prince Charles, who was on a recent Jordanian trip, reportedly gave the royal baby names to Holy Water Prince Charles.
