THE KING'S AIDE FOUND LOVE AGAIN AFTER SPLITTING WITH HIS FIRST WIFE CAROLINE. 09:25, 03 Jun 2025 King Charles' kilt-wearing aide Lieutenant Colonel Jonny Thompson has tied the

knot again in an intimate ceremony. Jonny has become known as the 'hunky' equerry to royal fans after being spotted several times while on duty by the sides of King and Queen

Camilla in his trademark kilt. And now, according to reports, Jonny has married for the second time, just months after getting engaged to PR executive, Olivia Lewis. Jonny, who is from the

5th Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland, started dating Olivia after he split from his first wife several years ago, writes The Mirror. The Mail On Sunday report that the couple got hitched

over a week ago in an 'elegant' and 'low-key' ceremony at St Mary's Church in Great Bedwyn, Wiltshire, which was followed by a lunch hosted by the bride's

parents. However, it seems it was shortly back to work after the big day as just two days later, the equerry was spotted in Canada with the King and Queen during their travels across the

Atlantic. Article continues below According to reports, the equerry found love with Olivia last year after being together for a year, with the pair being described as "well matched and

very happy" at the time. Their engagement was later announced in The Times, with the notice saying: "The engagement is announced between Lieutenant Colonel Jonny Thompson, son of

Mr and Mrs Alan Thompson of Morpeth, Northumberland, and Olivia Rose, daughter of Mr and Mrs Simon Lewis OBE of Primrose Hill, London." The lovely news comes just months after he won a

promotion to become Charles' 'super equerry'. Lt Col Thompson is now in a new role, which will see him remaining to work with the King and Queen and be in charge of the

monarch's private affairs, however, this promotion means that, unfortunately for fans, he won't be spotted much with the royals in public. Equerries are drawn from the armed forces

and are required to assist the royals both inside their residences and when out and about on public engagements. This means he has been at the King's side ever since his reign began

and played a prominent role at the late Queen's funeral, the Coronation and also won over a new set of fans across the English Channel when he accompanied Charles and Camilla on their

trip to France in 2023. Jonny has also been spotted sitting behind Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at a service to mark the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee last year. Also, he welcomed

former Prime Minster Rishi Sunak as he visited Buckingham Palace to see the King. Article continues below Fans have previously gushed over Jonny after he was spotted out with the King. One

fan previously took to social media and wrote: "Major Jonny Thompson is a tremendous hunk!" While another one said: "I think I’m getting a wee crush on King Charles‘s new

royal equerry." JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today. You'll receive daily updates
