A grid (or, for simpler cases, stack) is ideal for this use case, and does all the measuring magic for you:

#let advisors = ([Phil Phil], [John John])
#grid(
  columns: 2, column-gutter: 4pt,
  [*Advisors:*], advisors.join([\ ])
)

"Advisors: Phil Phil (LINEBREAK) John John"
"Advisors: Phil Phil (LINEBREAK) John John"1500×208 20.2 KB
