King Charles faced scrutiny over his past connection with Jimmy Savile.

While the palace has promised an "open and rigorous" recruitment process for his successor, the shake-up recalls a very different era when Charles reportedly sought Savile's advice before Sir Christopher Airy – who died last April aged 91 – became his private secretary in 1990.

A source familiar with the royal household at the time said Savile enjoyed an extraordinary degree of access – and was treated as an unconventional confidant rather than simply a celebrity acquaintance.

The source exclusively told : "Savile had a remarkable level of access to the royal world during that period. He wasn't treated simply as another television personality who occasionally appeared at an official engagement – he could come and go with a familiarity that would have been extremely unusual for somebody outside the established royal circle.
