Sophie Turner Has Moved On With A Literal Aristocrat

The news of Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas’ divorce was all anyone could talk about for weeks. There was a new nugget of information and hundreds of associated headlines every day, with fans – and Taylor Swift – picking sides in the fallout.

Now, reports are suggesting that Sophie has moved on. And while that shouldn’t be newsworthy as she’s single and free to pash whoever she pleases, I needed to talk about it immediately because the dude she’s allegedly moved on with is an aristocrat named Peregrine John Dickinson Pearson.

(To me, that name is at best a soap brand and at worst a pantomime villain.)

But let’s get to know this fellow a little better, shall we?

Who is Peregrine John Dickinson Pearson?

Darling Peregrine is the son of Michael Orlando Weetman Pearson, 4th Viscount Cowdray DL and Marina Rose Cordle (who is the daughter of a once-prominent Conservative Member of Parliament). Which in pleb terms means he comes from ooooold money – and a lot of old money at that. The Sun reports that the Pearson family is worth AU$429 million and Peregrine is set to inherit the family business as he is the eldest legitimate son.

How did Peregrine Pearson and Sophie Turner meet?

While I’m not sure if their paths have crossed before, Sophie and Peregrine were spotted snogging on the streets of Paris on October 28. Eyes on the ground are saying that they reunited later that same day at the Rugby World Cup final, where Sophie unveiled the trophy as part of her Louis Vuitton ambassadorship. Did more snogging occur after the rugby game? I HOPE SO.

Who is Peregrine Pearson’s ex-girlfriend?

It seems England’s high society is rather small because Peregrine has some high-profile exes – one being the god-daughter of King Charles. He actually only broke up with his girlfriend, Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark, in September, so there’s a chance this is just a glorious rebound for both Peregrine and Sophie.
