King Charles’s goddaughter Princess Maria-Olympia splits up with heir of 4th Viscount Cowdray
King Charles’s goddaughter, Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark, splits with Peregrine Pearson, the son and heir of the 4th Viscount Cowdray
When I revealed their romance in 2020, it was hailed as a union of European monarchs and one of Britain’s wealthiest aristocratic dynasties.
I am therefore sorry to report that King Charles’s goddaughter, Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark, has parted ways with Peregrine Pearson, son and heir of the 4th Viscount Cowdray.
“They have grown apart,” a source said. “Their friends and family hoped their union would lead to marriage, but that was not to be.”
And in that quintessentially modern confirmation of the demise of a relationship, Olympia, the only daughter of Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece and his wife Marie-Chantal Miller, has “unfollowed” 28-year-old Perry on Instagram and deleted all traces of him on Instagram. her account on the photo-sharing social media app.
Friends began whispering about the state of their relationship when property developer Perry was conspicuous by his absence from the Chelsea model’s 27th birthday party in July.

They have not been seen together in public since November last year.
The couple vacationed together for three consecutive summers, but this year they went their separate ways.
The princess visited Italy and Greece with family and friends, including actress Poppy Delevingne, who is dating her brother Prince Constantine Alexios.
They were accompanied by Isabella Massenet, the girlfriend of her other brother, Prince Archi.
Perry, meanwhile, spent his summer with friends in Cow Neck, New York State, as well as in Spain with family.
He was also at the Burning Man festival in Nevada with a group of attractive young women.
A spokesperson for Olympia, who was pictured earlier this week wearing a matching fuchsia pink satin crop top and skirt at the Chanel and W Magazine dinner in New York honoring American filmmaker Sofia Coppola, declined to comment.
Perry is also discreet.
Last month I announced that Perry’s mother, 63-year-old Viscountess Cowdray, had divorced her husband Michael after 36 years of marriage at Cowdray Park, the 17,000-acre estate in West Sussex.
The artist and sculptor was comforted by her chiropractor.
79-year-old former film producer Lord Cowdray owns a significant part of the Pearson media empire and his fortune is estimated at more than £400 million.
