Their father, Captain Mark Phillips, was not given a royal title when he married Princess Anne in 1973, so Peter and Zara are not a prince and princess.
The siblings have been able to carve out their own careers and have followed in their sporty parents' footsteps, with Peter as head of partner acquisition for the sports and entertainment rights agency CSM Sport & Entertainment, and Zara, an accomplished equestrian.
Peter shares two daughters, Savannah, 12, and Isla, 11, with his former wife, Autumn, while Zara and her husband, Mike Tindall, have Mia, nine, Lena, five, and two-year-old Lucas.
