King Charles' right-hand man offers helping hand to Kate Middleton

Lieutenant Colonel Johnny Thompson, King Charles' equerry, was admired by royal fans as one of his videos helping Kate Middleton at Christmas Walk emerged online.

Johnny Thompson who is known as the King's right-hand man and a "hot equerry", was seen collecting followers handed to the wife of Prince William by the crowd that had gathered to see the royals during the traditional walk led by King Charles and Queen Camilla.

In October, it was reported that Lt. Col. Jonny Thompson is getting married to Olivia Lewis. 

Thompson became a social media sensation after King Charles’ accession in September 2022 when a video of him went viral on TikTok. 

He lit up the internet again on coronation day in May 2023, and a video of the equerry helping the King change robes at Westminster Abbey has been viewed over 115,000 times on X.

In February it was reported that King Charles III is changing up his personnel after Lieutenant Colonel Johnny Thompson went viral last year.

The Telegraph reported earlier this year that Thompson, who has been part of the royal family’s team for years, will no longer be part of the king’s public security team.

The senior aide remains senior equerry to the king and the queen, in a more executive and less public-facing role,”  The Times reported in February.
