History
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.[3] The engagement between Philip and Jessica was announced formally from Oriente on the 15th of January 3081.[3][4] 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:[3]
Death
Philip would be assassinated during a hunting trip at his favorite hunting reserve on New Delos.[2]
