A CRONY of David Cameron boasted of building links with royalty.
Controversial financier Lex Greensill — who hired the ex-PM — had several meetings with Prince Charles.
He even sponsored a private Buckingham Palace concert.
Greensill and Charles can be seen talking at a black tie event in a snap posted on the family’s Facebook page.
The concert in May 2017 saluted Italian composer Monteverdi.
At the time, Lex’s outfit Greensill Capital, sponsored the Monteverdi Choir and Orchestra. The Prince was its patron.
Within weeks it was announced Greensill would be made a CBE for services to business — his medal was presented by Prince Charles in February 2018.
He told an Australian publication, he had met the Prince “a number of times before”.
Greensill Capital went bust last month. Key adviser Mr Cameron ran into trouble after lobbying three Treasury ministers over getting Greensill access to Government-backed loans.
Bank of England and Treasury officials were also asked about aid on behalf of the business.
Mr Cameron has said he should have approached those in Whitehall “through only the most formal of channels”.
Greensill was an adviser to Mr Cameron when he was in No10.
