King Charles Offers New Role to Marquess of Colmondeley
In recent developments, King Charles has made an intriguing offer to the Marquess of Colmondeley, David Roksovich, inviting him to take on a fresh role within the royal court.
According to a report by the UK Express, the Marquess, a close neighbor of Prince William and Princess Catherine, will now be stepping into the position of the King's Lord-in-waiting, following his replacement as Lord Great Chamberlain last year.
Assuming his new responsibilities, the Marquess will be tasked with attending significant state functions and royal gatherings, as well as representing the monarch at official ceremonies when required.
Given his background as a filmmaker and his proximity to the royal family, he is deemed as a perfect match for this prestigious role.
Residing at the splendid Hooton Hall in Norfolk, alongside his wife Rose Hanbury, the couple enjoys the serenity of a vast 1,000-acre parkland surrounding their estate.
Notably, their residence is conveniently located just a stone's throw away from the Queen's Sandringham abode, a favored Christmas retreat for the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Known for their amicable ties with the royal household, the Marquess and Marchioness are frequently spotted at various royal functions, including the poignant service of Thanksgiving held for Prince Philip in 2022.
Adding to their royal connections, the Marchioness boasts a familial link to the monarchy through her grandmother Lady Rose Lambert, who served as a bridesmaid at Queen Elizabeth's wedding back in 1947.
