Philip Bradly-Lashawn

 Philip Bradly-Lashawn (1975) is one of the two illegitimate sons of King Arthur III of Lovia.

Early life
Philip's mother was Veronica Bradly-Lashawn, his father's mistress for most of her life. Because of the class difference between the two lovers (Veronica was of low birth) they never married; Arthur's family did not approve of a marriage. Philip and his twin brother George were deeply loved by their father the king. Although they are not in the line of succession, for being born out of wedlock, they are considered to be members of the royal family. They are on good terms with they family. Philip Bradly-Lashawn has never received the title of prince and is therefore refered to as "the roral bastard, the hon. Philip Bradly-Lashawn". He is not in the line of succession and has no ambition whatsoever to ever take over the trone (which is in good hands with his nephew Dimitri, as Philip has claimed).

Personal
Philip Bradly-Lashawn is wealthy man and has an interest in horse racing. He owns his own stable and is known to be a gambler. He is married to the Dutch-Lovian Malia Vensterdorp (1977) and has three children. The marriage in 1998 was a great party and many members of the royal family attended the wedding including the old King Arthur himself. Since then Philip has tried to live a quiet live and stay out of the attention of the press. Whenever a member of the royal family marries, however, or when there is a funeral, Philip and George and their spouses are invited to attend. Bradly-Lashawn has founded the Lovian Fencing Federaration in 1999, being a state champion fencer. Bradly-Lashawn is a Buddhist and has been since 1994, shortyly after the death of his mother. He is an active member of the Sofasi Zen Buddhist Temple and a prominent member of the small yet growing Lovian Buddhist community.
