Lieutenant Colonel Johnny Thompson has been promoted by King Charles.
Lieutenant Colonel Johnny Thompson has bagged a promotion after impressing Charles and Queen Camilla and will now be accompanying the Monarch more often. The Mirror reports that Lieutenant Colonel Thompson - also known to fans as Major Johnny - has been elevated to the position of "super equerry".
An insider told The Sun: "He is due to leave the Army within 18 months and with that his role as equerry. But by taking him on in a super equerry role, people will be seeing a lot more of him. The King's pulling a decent trick by picking a social media sensation to be his right-hand man." He was also seen sitting behind Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at a service to mark the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee last year and also has welcomed former Prime Minster and current PM Rishi Sunak as they visited Buckingham Palace to see the King.
It explained: "It is from within the palace walls that the King’s equerry wields his unique brand of quiet, charming power; but he’s spotted where it counts, at the coronation, or on the opening night of the Berntson Bhattacharjee Gallery in Fitzrovia, for example, to which he wore a bunny tie and charmed India Rose James."
