History[edit]
Philip Hughes met Jessica Halas, only daughter of the "false Thomas Marik" Duke Thomas Halas and Duchess Sherryl Halas of the Duchy of Oriente, in the spring of 3080 at an Oriente University fundraiser held in Amur in support of victims of the Word of Blake. There was considerable political and celebrity speculation that Philip and the 17-year-old Jessica had formed a relationship after meeting, although their relationship wouldn't be announced publicly until October 3080.[4] The engagement between Philip and Jessica was announced formally from Oriente on 15 January 3081.[4][5] As Philip was a cadet member of an influential Irian family, there was much speculation at the time that the engagement was a matter of political expediency to create close ties between the industrial base on Irian and Oriente in the wake of Irian joining the Republic of the Sphere. Despite these rumors, Duke Halas was quick to comment on the marriage as a parent:
| “ | While as Duchess and Duke we recognize the tremendous diplomatic and dynastic import of this union, Sherryl and I would like to say that we are far more proud of our daughter and her husband-to-be simply as parents who wish their children all the happiness in the world. | ” |
| — Duke Thomas Halas, 15 January 3081[4] | ||
Death[edit]
Philip would be assassinated during a hunting trip at his favorite hunting reserve on New Delos.[1]
