Cheltenham is back and royalty and major stars have descended on the English town for a weekend of racing action.

Among those spotted at the annual event were Princess Anne and her son Peter Phillips, but Peter's ex-wife, Autumn Phillips, was also there alongside her partner, Donal Mulryan. The pair were photographed at the racecourse and they look so loved-up as they smiled and posed together.

The pair both dressed up warm for the event, with Donal donning a large grey overcoat and pair of trousers, while Autumn looked radiant in a navy coat and trousers, finishing off her outfit with a pair of black shoes and a green hat.
