Since King Charles III of England succeeded to the throne, his staff and friends have given him great support and helped him through some of the difficulties faced by the new monarch. According to the British media "Daily Star" reported on September 28, King Charles III's closest allies, but also his inner circle, is not ordinary, including talented diplomats, former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill's grandson, and handsome men who like to wear Scottish skirts.
Of course, Charles's most obvious ally was Queen Camilla. Since the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Camilla has been reliably by the king's side.
Former BBC royal correspondent Jenny Bond told The Mirror that Camilla gave Charles great support and strength, was his strong pillar and the foundation on which he laid the foundation.
Meanwhile, Charles's eldest son, the newly appointed Prince of Wales, Prince William, was another of his famous allies. According to royal expert Russell Myers, Prince William now realizes that "it is time for him to realize his destiny".
Not only his family, but also the staff standing behind him, had always given Charles great support.

First, Sir Clive Alderton was one of the staff members who stayed with Charles the longest, having started working for the Prince of Wales in 2006 and was later promoted to Charles's personal secretary.
In 2020, Sir Alderton's famous quote "Memories may be different" gave him a key role in negotiations with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, as well as other members of the royal family.
The talented diplomat, a former British ambassador to Morocco who had accompanied Charles on frequent trips in the past, was also reportedly "favored" by Camilla.

An old friend of Charles's has also been by his side, and to some sharp-eyed fans, the man may seem familiar.
Former MP Sir Nicholas Somth is simply a replica of his grandfather Churchill, who has had an extraordinary relationship with Charles since he was a teenager and the two have been friends for many years.
After the Queen's death, Sir Nicholas spoke of how Charles would deal with the pressures of his new role, saying: "As the King said, when he begins to take on new responsibilities, it is clear that his life will change and his views and ways of behaving will of course abide by the principles of the Constitution."
Peter St Clair Erskine was a former senior police officer who was hired in March 2014 as the head of the family of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall.
As the former head of the Clarence Palace, Mr. Erskin's duty was to ensure that the public life of the King and Queen went as smoothly as possible.

There was also a very handsome Scottish officer, Major Jonathan Thompson, who also assisted Charles along the way. According to the Daily Mail, Major Thompson was the new King's attendant and was described by royal observers as a "lovely baby" from which one shows how popular he is in the royal family.
Major Thompson, originally a cavalry officer in the 5th Battalion of the Royal Scottish Regiment, was later transferred to the royal family to assist in the work, and was the late Queen's highest-ranking bodyguard and a long-term bodyguard for most members of the royal family, including the Queen.

Interestingly, Major Thompson always wore a thick tartan Scotch dress, even in the sweltering summer days. Since Prince Charles ascended the throne, Major Thompson, 39, has also been photographed with the king several times, wearing his iconic traditional Scotch dress.
The officer has had a number of admirers since becoming popular at the Queen's Platinum Anniversary Thanksgiving event, with Scotsmen affectionately calling him "Big Guy" and others calling him "Big Handsome Guy".
