After we learned a few weeks ago the news that Charles III has replaced Major Johnny, his sexiest and most viral bodyguard, another ‘equerry’ or equerry of the king, who also He faithfully served Elizabeth II until his last dayshas hit the headlines.
This is a true war hero who is now called to become nothing less than in Kate Middleton’s private secretary. The Princess of Wales, who has been without a person to perform this function on her team for more than a year, has set her sights on Lieutenant Colonel Tom Whiteaccording to ‘The Times’.
The election of the late queen’s former assistant would mean a radical change with respect to the other candidate for the position, Alison Corfield, who was described in the past as an “extremely direct” person whose way of working would “shake” the palace. If the hiring of the royal’s new right-hand man is confirmed, it would mean the presence of a continuing person who has already worked at the center of the institution.

Before entering Her Majesty’s James Bond-style service, the decorated Royal Marines officer served in Afghanistan in 2009 as a member of 42 Commando.
