In early December 2023, Sophie Turner was spotted locking lips with Peregrine "Perry" Pearson in the bustling streets of London. Their chemistry was undeniable, and soon, the couple was officially dating. Their romance, which lasted over a year, finally ended in September 2025. But who exactly is Peregrine Pearson, and why did their relationship come to a close?
Peregrine Pearson isn't just any aristocrat. As the heir to the 4th Viscount Cowdray, his full name is Hon Peregrine John Dickinson Pearson, though he prefers to go by Perry. His family's wealth is impressive, with a net worth reportedly over $270 million. The Pearsons have converted their Cowdray Estate into a thriving business hub, complete with a Polo Club, farm shop, and more.
Perry, who holds a degree in business from the University of West London, has been pivotal in these ventures. He shared with The Gentleman's Journal, "Traditionally, estates were run like holiday homes... But the dream is to pass it on to my son or daughter in better nick than it’s in now."
January 2024 saw Turner and Pearson taking their relationship public with cozy walks and social media confirmations. A ski trip photo dump on Instagram featuring Pearson cemented their status as a couple. By February, they were making glamorous appearances together, including a stunning entrance at Stanley Zhu's Year of Dragon celebration.
By March, Turner and Pearson were spotted in the romance capital of Paris, with paparazzi capturing intimate moments of them strolling and cuddling through the city. A romantic jaunt to Capri in May 2024 further fueled their love story, with Instagram posts showcasing their shared adventures.
Despite the public displays of affection and shared moments, rumors of a breakup started swirling in April 2025. Reports suggested Turner had told friends she was single, and social media activity – or lack thereof – only added fuel to the fire.
While they were seen rekindling their romance at the Glastonbury festival in June and sharing a kiss in London in July, by September 2025, it was officially over. A source revealed to Us Weekly, "They had conflicting personalities and weren’t getting along... Sophie wanted to move on." Their final appearance together at a family cookbook launch did little to quell the breakup buzz.
In the end, Turner and Pearson's love story was one of passion and challenges, ultimately leading them on separate paths.
