Princess Anne's son, Peter Phillips, has a special reason to celebrate today as his daughter Savannah celebrates her 12th birthday.

Savannah is Peter and former wife Autumn's eldest child, born on 29 December 2010 at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital.

She is also the late Queen Elizabeth II's oldest great-grandchild and is a big sister to Isla Phillips.

Savannah and Isla have mostly grown-up out of the public eye but they've been pictured in the past, having fun with their cousins, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and Mia and Lena Tindall, at family outings and Trooping the Colour.

We've most recently seen the new 12-year-old on Christmas Day morning, doing a happy walkabout with her dad Peter and sister Isla with her cousins and King Charles. Earlier in the year, she was also seen mourning her grandmother at the Queen's vigil, and sharing a very moving moment with her father, which can be seen in the video above.

Savannah marked a big milestone back in September 2022 as she started her first year of secondary school.

It's been public knowledge that Peter and and his ex-wife Autumn have been separated since February 2020. The couple confirmed at that time that they had in fact separated in 2019 and their divorce was settled in June 2021. Autumn has remained living in Gloucestershire, so that she and Peter can co-parent their daughters.
