One of the Queen's most loyal staff has been given a new job - in honour of his dedicated service.
The late Queen was famously loyal to her staff - and this includes Paul Whybrew, her most loyal aide, who joined the royals today for the historic day.
The Sergeant at Arms was one of two key members of the Queen’s staff who was promised a home for life - the page now has a cottage in the castle grounds.
The longest-serving member of staff has been kept on by the King, who has entrusted him with cataloguing the Queen’s personal correspondence.
One friend of Whybrew said: "Paul knows all the secrets and the King acknowledged that he is vital in making sure he has a complete understanding of all his mother’s wishes and where everything is."
Nicknamed "Tall Paul" because he stands at 6ft 4in, the staff member was one of the Queen's regular companions in her final days. According to former royal butler Grant Harrold, Whybrew was one of "the most powerful" royal aides because the Queen highly valued his relationship.
He spent hours watching sport with her at Balmoral, and she personally paid for his flat in Windsor to be renovated, after she asked him to move closer.
He spent the summer keeping Queen Elizabeth company, by helping "with jigsaw puzzles, delivering her beloved Racing Post and simply keeping her company as she watched television."
He was one her aides "had become indispensable, keeping her spirits up and her mind sharp."
Last year, he accompanied the coffin as the Queen left Buckingham Palace for the final time, with the King and the royal family walking behind her coffin in solemn procession to the lying in state.
He previously accompanied the queen in her famous skit for the 2012 Olympic Games with James Bond actor Daniel Craig.
The decision mirrored Prince Philip's request that senior household staff walk behind his coffin at his coffin.
This included his personal protection officer, his private secretary, two pages and two valets.
Royal watchers noted his presence, as one wrote: "Tall Paul... keeper of the Queen's secrets: For 44 years, he was the 6ft 4in man at her side. This week he was given pride of place in front of her coffin."
The coronation ceremony finished 1pm and the newly crowned King and Queen will begin the procession back to Buckingham Palace in the gold state coach.
Some 4,000 sailors, soldiers, aviators and other military personnel from across the UK and the Commonwealth accompanied Charles and Camilla on their return procession. There was more than 1,000 route liners from the Army, RAF and Royal Navy.
Charles and Camilla entered Buckingham Palace through the centre arch at 1.33pm.
They received a salute from the military in the palace gardens at 1.45pm, and then at about 2.15pm they were joined by members of the royal family on the palace balcony to watch the flypast.
