Phillip Atkins He is the first husband of CorinnaThey married in 1991 and together had a daughter, Anastasia, who was born a year later and lives in the USA. Despite being divorced since 1993, she accompanied her ex and the little one Alexanderson of Corinna’s second marriage to the German prince Casimir zu Sayn-Wittgensteinto the famous trip to Africa in 2012 where Juan Carlos killed an elephant.
The British businessman is a close friend of the emeritus. In fact, he said he was happy to speak in a documentary on the SkyShowtime platform, Juan Carlos: the fall of the king, in which, among other matters, he gave details about an important agreement that the father of Felipe VI and the German princess had reached. “An agreement was made between Corinna and the king. The facts are that she ended up taking the money,” she said, referring to the notorious 65 million euros. This is how we picked it up in May of last year.
The United States points out
Now we have news related to the businessman, as it has emerged that the United States Department of the Treasury has sanctioned him for helping Russia with an energy project in the Arctic.
As reported in an investigation carried out by Financial Times, this is Red Box Energy Services Pte LTD, a company based in Singapore. This company provided the Arctic LNG 2 gas production plant, Vladimir Putin’s big project, with liquefied natural gas (LNG) modules and gravity platforms.
The sanction now imposed by the United States prevents Adkins’ companies from having access to the Western financial system. Also carry out operations with American firms. The measure is interpreted as a new offensive by the United States against Russia’s strategic interests in the midst of its invasion of Ukraine.

The businessman met the aristocrat in 1989 in France, when some friends introduced them at a dinner. Two years later they married and had their daughter, Anastasia Adkins, in London. Adkins was the one who taught the German how to hunt. That’s why Corinna asked him to accompany her on the trip to Botswana with her and King Juan Carlos when the elephant incident took place, despite being already separated.
Since that trip, the monarch and Adkins have been great friends: “He is a wonderful man,” said the magnate upon returning from Africa, when he was still defending his ex-wife: “If something characterizes Corinna, it is her discretion and her loyalty. She is not a social climber, that’s ridiculous. She has had and has a super interesting life and she is very funny. She is the type of woman that any man, including Ernest Hemingway, would pursue,” he said.
