Hot equerry became the king's senior aide: Who is Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Thompson?

As the 'senior aide to the King', he will now be in a 'less public-facing' role at Buckingham Palace. He will assist King Charles in his private affairs.

The handsome man at Buckingham Palace outshined even the King

HE ATTRACTS AS MUCH AS A MOVIE STAR

We can say that this young man, who has no blood ties to the British royal family, manages to attract as much attention as a movie star. This young man, who followed the Queen "like a shadow" in the last years of his life and now formed an "inseparable duo" with Charles, so to speak, has already created a unique fan base in many parts of the world.

The primary - and perhaps even the only - reason for this is its physical features, as we just said. Let's say it straight: He is tall and handsome. His striking appearance overshadows those around him wherever he goes. Of course, let's not forget the slight smile he never leaves on his face.

HE MADE HIS MARK ON THE CORONATION CEREMONY

That young man was with him at every step he took at Westminster Abbey during the coronation of King Charles III. With this feature, it found its place in the headlines not only in England but also in the world press.

Now let's tell you who this man who is compared to Brad Pitt or George Clooney on some social media platforms is: Major Jonathan Thompson. You've probably noticed this young man "swaying" in his uniform, which includes a Scottish skirt called a kilt, during family-related ceremonies.

Major Jonathan Thompson was the person who attracted the most attention, other than family members, at the coronation of King Charles III. The moments when the handsome Major went to Westminster Abbey, where the ceremony would be held, wearing a dark suit and passing through the security line by showing his ID, have been talked about on social media for a week.

The summary of the comments made about Major Thompson in the British newspapers is as follows: "Charles' charming personal adjutant made the heart beat faster again."

HARRY AND MEGHAN FELT HIS BREATH ON THEIR NECKS

In fact, should we get to know a little better about Major Jonathan Thompson, who 'ascended to the leading role' during the Platinum Jubilee held for the 70th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne, and who is as popular as a movie star among monarchy fans?

In fact, Major Thompson is handsome without being handsome, dashing without being dashing. But did you know that he first attracted more attention than ever before at one of the Platinum Jubilee events attended by Harry and Meghan?

Thompson was right behind the Sussex couple at the ceremony at St Paul's Cathedral. Almost "one breath away" away. That's why there were rumors on social media that he might be an agent of the Queen, who could not attend that event due to health problems. Another claim was that the handsome major was assigned for the same purpose by Charles, who was the crown prince at the time, not the Queen.

THE QUEEN DIED, THIS TIME HE IS SIDE THE KING: After the Queen's death, this time he appeared in front of the cameras very close to King Charles III. Even during this period of mourning, he still attracted attention with his kilt and "full" uniform among those dressed in black from head to toe.

During the last period of her life, Major Thompson never left Queen Elizabeth II's side.

Jonathan Thompson, who has been under the spotlight of royal observers for some time, worked in the personal service of Queen Elizabeth II until his death. He did not leave Charles and Camilla's side during their trip to Greece at that time.

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF HISTORICAL EVENTS

Jonathan Thompson, whom his friends call "Johnny", was next to King Charles III at his first public appearance with this title. One day after this parade, Thompson presented Prime Minister Liz Truss to the King.

Charles was right next to him as he signed his historic signature at St James's Palace. Even at those moments when Charles asked nervously to remove the pen holder on the table, he calmly fulfilled his request. In short, Jonathan Thompson suddenly found himself one of the closest witnesses to historical events.

THE TRUTH THAT SAD FOR FEMALE FANS

The whole world has seen Major Jonathan Thompson of the 5th Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland in uniform. The marital status of Thompson, who attracted attention with his handsome appearance, was also a matter of curiosity.

At this point, there is a detail that will break the hearts of his female fans: Major has been married to Caroline Thompson, who has been working as a marketing manager since 2010.

By the way, let us also remind you that his wife is a few years older than him. Thompson and his 44-year-old wife have a four-year-old son. The family members of the couple, who are also animal lovers, include two Labrador dogs named Odin and Piper.

STUDIED ECONOMICS AND POLITICS

Jonathan Thompson graduated from Aberystwyth University in 2004 with a degree in economics and politics. He joined the army in 2006.

Although everyone thinks he is Scottish-born, Thompson was born in Northumberland and lives with his family in Surrey. Handsome Major's main hobbies are playing Ruby and mountaineering.
