Timeline
The Honourable George Edward Adeane (4 October 1939 – 20 May 2015) was an English barrister and royal advisor who served as Private Secretary to the Prince of Wales from 1979 to 1985.
Adeane was born in 1939, the son of Michael Adeane (created a life peer as Baron Adeane in 1972) and Helen Chetwynd-Stapylton, the daughter of Richard Chetwynd-Stapylton.
The family had a long history of service to the royal family.
His maternal great-grandfather was Arthur Bigge, later Lord Stamfordham, private secretary to Queen Victoria and King George V.
His paternal great-grandfather was Admiral Edward Stanley Adeane.
Adeane's father was Private Secretary to the Queen for 19 years, between 1953 and 1972.
He was educated at Eton College and Magdalene College, Cambridge, where he graduated with an MA.
He was a Page of Honour to The Queen from 1954 to 1956.
In 1960 and 1961 he was a Plebiscite Supervisor in the Southern Cameroon.
He was called to the Bar at the Middle Temple in July 1962, and specialised in libel until 1979.
As a barrister, he defended Time Out magazine, owned by Playboy Publications, Inc., in 1973, when they had accused Fiona Lewis, an actress, of being involved with South American revolutionaries.
The following year, he represented The Spectator magazine who had libelled publishers Jonathan Cape, suggesting they were in financial difficulties, and won a similar outcome in that case.
In 1975 he was more successful in representing Marcia, Lady Falkender, who was falsely accused of forging the signature of her boss, former Prime Minister Harold Wilson.
She was paid damages and costs.
In 1977, Adeane represented Marlene Dietrich in a libel case brought by producer Alexander Cohen for breach of contract, as a disreputable performer.
Adeane was appointed Private Secretary and Treasurer to the Prince of Wales in May 1979 to succeed David Checketts.
Prince Charles and Edward Adeane shared a passion for angling on the River Test near Stockbridge, Hampshire.
Adeane was a member of the Houghton Fishing Club, where he continued to fish right up until his last days.
Adeane was made the Princess's Treasurer in 1981 on their marriage.
Adeane was granted the additional appointment as private secretary to the Princess in 1984, following Oliver Everett's resignation.
The Daily Mirror reported her calling Adeane a "fuddy-duddy".
When Adeane tried to plan a tour of Australia in 1984, he was accused of trying to manipulate State elections in Victoria for political purposes.
In attempting to distance the Premier, Adeane was quoted in the Daily Mirror and other newspapers.
Adeane resigned after disagreements and accusations that he was taking decisions without consulting the prince, and having too much of the 'old school tie' about him.
He resigned on 31 March 1985.
He was appointed Extra Equerry to the Prince of Wales from 1985, and appointed Commander of the Royal Victorian Order.
He represented the Prince at Royal Household memorial services, and returned to practice at the Bar.
He was succeeded by Sir John Riddell.
