Sophie Turner confirms her romance with Peregrine Pearson

EXCLUSIVE Sophie Turner confirms her romance with aristocrat and media empire heir Peregrine Pearson – dubbed Britain’s ‘most eligible bachelor’ – as they kiss amid her divorce from Joe Jonas

Sophie Turner has confirmed her relationship with her British aristocrat boyfriend Peregrine Pearson as they stepped out together again this week.

The Game Of Thrones actress, 27, who is in the process of a divorce with her estranged husband Joe Jonas, was spotted passionately kissing the media empire heir, whose family has a net worth of more than £224million.

Sophie and Peregrine – who is known as Perry to his friends – were first spotted kissing during an outing in October, sparking speculating that she had moved on following her break-up with Jonas Brother singer Joe, 34.

Peregrine is the eldest son and heir of Michael Pearson, the 4th Viscount Cowdray – a former film producer who owns a significant chunk of the Pearson media empire. 

While Sophie is said to be worth a whopping £10million, this pales in comparison to Peregrine’s family fortune.

The kiss came one month after Sophie’s ex Joe, who she shares daughters Willa, three, and Delphine, 16 months, with, filed for divorce and the pair reached a temporary custody agreement (Sophie and Joe pictured together in March  2023)

Sophie was offered the role of Sansa Stark in Game Of Thrones age 13 and has since  appeared in many films and campaigns, enabling her to amass her own fortune.

The mother-of-two’s upbringing is comparatively modest as the daughter of Sally and Andrew Turner, who worked as a nursery school teacher and pallet distribution company respectively.

The Turners relocated to Chesterton, Warwickshire, when she was two years old, where she spent most of her childhood. 

Sophie went to Warwick Prep School until the age of 11, before attending The King’s High School for Girls, which currently costs between £7,250 and £8,630 per term.

Sophie and Peregrine’s latest PDA-packed display suggests they are giving the romance a shot, as they looked smitten with each other during the evening stroll on Thursday. 

Peregrine, 29, has also recently been through his own break-up, after splitting from King Charles’s goddaughter, Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark.

But it appears that the new couple have found solace in each other following their respective splits, as their relationship continues to heat up.

During the romantic walk, Sophie and Peregrine couldn’t keep their hands off each other as they stopped on several occasions for hugs and kisses.

Sophie was wrapped up in a grey hoodie and black coat, while she also sported a green beanie hat and a pair of gloves.

Peregrine also kept warm in a coat with a fur-trim hood, while also wearing a woolly scarf and hat.

As they walked side by side, Peregrine could be seen slinging his arm around Sophie, as they appeared very comfortable in each other’s presence.

The first sighting of Sophie and Peregrine together was during the Rugby World Cup in France in October, where they were seen kissing near the Gare du Nord station.

The pair then parted ways in chauffeur-driven cars before they later reunited at the city’s Stade de France, where Sophie unveiled the Rugby World Cup trophy.

According to The Sun, an onlooker said: ‘They arrived together at the chauffeur pick-up location outside of the station. It looked like they might have both come on the Eurostar from London.

‘They stood there for a few minutes and were chatting and laughing a lot. He then took his hat off and leaned in to give her a big kiss. After the kiss they parted ways.’

Just hours after the kiss, Sophie was seen smiling as she and Peregrine both arrived ahead of the Rugby World Cup Final between New Zealand and South Africa.

Sophie walked a few steps ahead of the aristocrat, dubbed Britain’s ‘most eligible bachelor’, before going on to the pitch to unveil the Webb Ellis cup.

The kiss came one month after Sophie’s ex Joe, who she shares daughters Willa, three, and Delphine, 16 months, with, filed for divorce and the pair reached a temporary custody agreement.

Peregrine has a £5million house in Chelsea while his father owns a mansion in West Sussex with 22 bedrooms and 16,500 acres, including ten polo pitches.

Last month, it was revealed by MailOnline that Olympia was in a romantic relationship with married celebrity chef Thomas Straker.

After the relationship came to light, Straker’s wife kicked him out of their marital home.

Friends of Straker and his wife Davina who have two daughters aged four and two, said she was ‘devastated’ to be told of his infidelity in October.

The cookery star who has 4.5million social media followers was photographed with Olympia, outside her home earlier this month.

His ancestral estate is home to Cowdray Park Polo Club, which boasts ten pitches and hosts more than 450 matches each year.

The prestigious club hosts the annual Gold Cup, where both Prince William and Prince Harry have played. The Gold Cup is polo’s most prestigious European event.

The main Cowdray House, bought in 1908 by Peregrine’s great-great-grandfather Weetman Dickinson Pearson, has 120 acres of formal gardens and woodland.

The house was a replacement for a Tudor manor built by the Montague family, which burnt down in 1793.

In 2009, Lord and Lady Cowdray reportedly decided to put the estate on the market for £25million, but decided they couldn’t part with the property and instead started hosting luxury events there, with Cowdray Hall now serving as a wellness centre.

Cowdray Hall offers spiritual workshops, retreats and weekly classes, and features a chapel used for yoga, Pilates and meditation.

Peregrine previously admitted that despite being the heir to the sprawling estate, which also features a farm shop and café, he does not play polo himself.

He told the Daily Telegraph in 2018: ‘I’m getting lessons, I grew up riding and over the next few years it’s something I can see myself doing a lot more.’

The publication also reported that Peregrine was taking a more active role in running the estate and was shadowing chief executive Jonathan Russell to learn about the intricacies of the polo club.

‘It’s great to be able to observe it from a distance and see what my future role is going to be,’ Peregrine said.

Peregrine’s own children will not grow up on the Cowdray Estate due to it being transformed into an events venue, but Peregrine said he isn’t upset at the prospect as he looked towards the future.

‘Having heard the stress of managing these type of houses, it’s the perfect compromise,’ he told the Telegraph.

‘The house is still an important part of the community and a valuable employer, without costing us money to run. And I still have the luxury of using it when I like.’

Peregrine began dating his ex Olympia in 2020, but friends began whispering about the state of their relationship when Peregrine was conspicuous by his absence at the Chelsea-based model’s 27th birthday party in July.

After their split, Olympia, the only daughter of Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece and his wife, Marie-Chantal Miller, ‘unfollowed’ Peregrine on Instagram.

She also deleted all traces of him on her account on the picture-sharing app.

‘They grew apart,’ a source told the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden at the time. ‘Their friends and family were hoping their union would lead to marriage, but it wasn’t meant to be.’

Olympia’s grandfather is King Constantine, a relation of the late Prince Philip, who was exiled from Greece following the 1967 coup. The family continue to use their royal titles decades after the abolition of the monarchy.

The couple had not been seen in public together since November 2022, and did not holiday together this year after three consecutive summers of doing so.

Instead, the Princess visited Italy and Greece with family and friends including actress Poppy Delevingne, who has been linked to her brother Prince Constantine Alexios.

Meanwhile, Peregrine spent his summer with pals in Cow Neck, New York state, as well as in Spain with family. He also went to the Burning Man festival in Nevada.

However, Olympia looked far from downcast as she spent time with celebrity chef Straker.

Olympia and Straker, who runs a restaurant in Notting Hill, appeared to be joking and laughing as they walked down the street together.

Preferring to stay out of the spotlight, Peregrine’s Instagram is private and is followed by Jamie Redknapp and Olivia Bentley. Sophie is now listed among his followers.

In August, it emerged that Peregrine’s father Lord Cowdray and his wife Marina, the Viscountess Cowdray, had separated after 36 years of marriage.

‘It’s highly acrimonious,’ a family friend claimed to the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden at the time.

‘Marina has walked out of the marriage. Michael [the viscount] is devastated. The New Age stuff has changed her.’

Marina, the daughter of late Tory MP John Cordle, was Michael’s second wife. He was previously married to Fritzi (Ellen) Erhardt, the daughter of a German industrialist.

Sophie and Peregrine were also seen attending the Stade de France together in October, with Sophie smiling as she walked a few paces ahead of Peregrine (pictured) 

Family: Property developer Peregrine is the eldest son and heir of Michael Pearson, the 4th Viscount Cowdray and his wife Marina (both pictured in July 2018), who split up in August

Upbringing: Peregrine said his artist mother Marina (both pictured with his brother Montague in 2014) never forced them to play polo and allowed them to be ‘creative’

Impressive: His father owns a sprawling 16,500-acre West Sussex estate (pictured in 2015) which is home to Cowdray Park Polo Club 

As well as Peregrine, the couple also have a daughter Eliza Pearson, 35, who married Ned Rocknroll – who changed his surname from Abel Smith – in 2009.

Princess Beatrice was among the guests at the open-air pagan wedding ceremony led by a druid, but the pair went their separate ways just years later.

Ned, a nephew of Virgin billionaire Sir Richard Branson, went on to marry actress Kate Winslet in 2012 and the couple are still together.

Meanwhile, Eliza went on to marry Norwegian financier Leif Kvaal and they have three children together, according to Tatler.

As well as Peregrine and Eliza, Lord Cowdray and his wife also have daughters Emily and Catrina, and another son Montague.

Lord Cowdray also has a son called Sebastian from a previous relationship with model Barbara Ray.

Reflecting on his childhood in 2018, Peregrine said his artist mother Marina never forced them to play polo, despite growing up on the grounds of a prestigious polo club, and allowed them to be ‘creative’.

He told the Telegraph how he and his siblings would spend a lot of time with their mother in her pottery studio in the garden as the heir of the Cowdray fortune looked back on his upbringing.
