London, Sept 12 (ANI): Pippa Middleton and her family are being advised by an ex-army team after their profile rose since the announcement of Kate's engagement to Prince William last year.eyrick Bond Gunning, 40, a former captain in the Grenadier Guards, is the director of Salamanca, a "global risk consultancy".
While Kate, as Duchess of Cambridge, is now entitled to official police protection, her parents Michael and Carole, sister Pippa and brother James, are not, so "they have made their own arrangements", revealed a royal source.
"They aren't guarded 24 hours a day or anything like that. But they are an ordinary family who have been thrust into an extraordinary situation and have needed help and advice," the Daily Mail quoted the source as saying.
Gunning played a significant role escorting members of the family on the day of the royal wedding in April, and since then, he and his team, many of whom are ex-soldiers, have provided the family with advice regularly.
The firm, whose clients range from FTSE 100 companies to Russian oligarchs, charges thousands a day for its services.
"We can't talk about any clients by name," Gunning said.
Public-school educated Gunning spent six years in the Grenadier Guards, serving in Macedonia, Kenya and Northern Ireland. (ANI)
