Prince George’s rarely seen godfather, Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, joined Kate Middleton at a royal engagement Thursday as the pair enjoyed a sweet public reunion.
The Princess of Wales, 43, paid a visit to the Sudbury Silk Mills in Suffolk, England where she exchanged smiles and hugs with her former private secretary.
Lowther-Pinkerton, who holds the Lord Lieutenant of Suffolk title, previously served as the first private secretary to Prince William, Princess Catherine and Prince Harry from 2005 to 2013.
His tenure was nearly twice as long as any of his successors, underscoring just how close their bond has been for years.
As a former Special Air Service major, Lowther-Pinkerton helped guide the trio in the early days of their work as senior members of the royal family.
They soon developed a profound bond, which saw the Prince and Princess of Wales ask him to be godfather to their eldest son, Prince George, who was born in 2013.
Lowther-Pinkerton’s son, also named William, had served as one of the two pageboys at William and Catherine’s 2011 nuptials.
Before stepping down in 2013, he prepared the couple — as well as the Royal Household staff — for George’s arrival.

Still, his connections to the Windsor clan run even deeper.
Lowther-Pinkerton had also served as a director of the Royal Foundation, as well as Prince Harry’s scandal-scarred charity Sentebale, from which the duke resigned earlier this year.
After stepping down as private secretary more than a decade ago, the former palace staffer had also resigned from his charity roles.
Between 1984 and 1986, he served as equerry to the late Queen Mother, who died in 2002. Additionally, he was made a Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order in the 2013 New Year’s Honors.
