Tennis fans around the world are buzzing with excitement after the news of Princess Kate’s new private secretary, Colonel Tom White, hitting the headlines. The former equerry to the Queen has caused quite a stir online, with many noting his striking resemblance to retired tennis legend Roger Federer.
Colonel Tom White, now serving as the Private Secretary to Kate Middleton, has had a remarkable military career. A devoted husband to his wife Stephanie White and father to their daughter, the couple resides in London and owns a stunning 635,000-pound house in Cambridgeshire.
Before taking on his role in the royal household, White was a trusted military assistant to Major General Matt Holmes, the esteemed commandant general of the Royal Marines. His dedication and bravery were evident during his service in Afghanistan in 2009, where he played a crucial role in defusing a bomb threat at a school in Helmand province.
In a historic moment in 2020, White became the first Royal Marines commando to serve as the Queen’s Squire. He continued to serve Queen Elizabeth II as her equerry until her passing in September 2022. His wealth of experience and expertise make him one of the most seasoned aides in the royal family.
Fans couldn’t contain their excitement, taking to social media to share their thoughts on White’s new role. One avid tennis fan even remarked, “He looks just like Roger Federer, it’s uncanny!” Another fan expressed their admiration for White’s military service, stating, “What an incredible journey Colonel White has had, from serving in Afghanistan to now serving as Princess Kate’s private secretary.”
With Colonel Tom White now by Princess Kate’s side, royal watchers are eagerly anticipating the impact he will have in his new role. As one fan aptly put it, “Colonel White’s appointment adds an exciting new chapter to the royal household, and I can’t wait to see what he brings to the table.”
