Peter Phillips and his girlfriend Harriet Sperling were all smiles on Friday as they stepped out to attend the racing at Goodwood.

The pair, whose relationship was confirmed in May this year, appeared in high spirits mingling with fellow guests ahead of the sporting action. Snapshots from the event showed Peter, 46, smiling broadly as he cosied up to Harriet in a touching display of affection.

For their joint outing, writer and NHS nurse Harriet exuded elegance in a waist-cinching midi dress in a vibrant hot pink hue by one of the royals' favourite brands, Beulah. Complete with billowing sleeves, ruffled trim detailing and a tie belt, her frock was the ultimate boho dream.

She elevated her look with a cream boucle Aspinal of London chain handbag and a pair of matching white pumps from LK Bennett. In keeping with the pink theme, she lacquered her nails with a glossy coating of fluorescent pink varnish.

A sculptural woven hat adorned with tendril-like petals by Nicola de Selincourt rounded off her summery outfit, while a sparkling aquamarine pendant added a touch of glitz. As for hair and makeup, Harriet opted for a natural glow and preened her luminous locks into glamorous waves.

Also galloping ahead in the style stakes was Princess Anne's son, Peter, who looked his usual dapper self in a creamy check suit, a crisp white shirt and a merlot-hued tie. He wore a pair of stylish sunglasses on his head and slipped on a pair of chestnut leather loafers for a classic look.

Lovebirds Peter and Harriet appear to be going from strength to strength. It's rumoured that the pair first crossed paths at a sporting event, with the couple seemingly confirming their romance in May this year.

In April it was confirmed that Peter had parted ways with his girlfriend of four years, Lindsay Steven.
