EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: King Charles' nephew Peter Phillips launches £5m property venture with his billionaire chum


Phillips has paid just over £5 million to make himself the landlord of a medley of shops, small businesses, bars and restaurants in the glorious Georgian spa town of Bath.

He has, so far, been something of a jack of several – if not yet all – trades, trying his hand at corporate hospitality and ‘sponsorship management’, as well as establishing his own events company and becoming a director of a firm aiming to cash in on the market for Covid tests. I hear that food service had to be suspended after a wood-fired pizza oven sparked a blaze at the private members’ club, where the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stayed twice before their wedding, and Meghan held her hen weekend. ‘Lots of people around here don’t know how to cook and were banking on Soho Farmhouse.’ The incident follows flooding caused by Storm Bert last month that led to the temporary closure of its Asian restaurant, Pen Yen.
