King Charles wanted to give BBC paedophile Jimmy Savile an official role on his staff after being introduced to him through his uncle, a royal book has claimed.
Yes, Ma'am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants by Tom Quinn, which will be published on February 18, details of the monarch's friendship with Savile - albeit, long before his sickening crimes were uncovered.
In an extract from the book, seen by FEMAIL, which details accounts from royal servants over the years, Mr Quinn revealed that the monarch and the late TV presenter had a friendship that lasted almost 50 years.
The pair were first introduced by Charles's favourite Uncle Earl Mountbatten as early as 1966.
From that moment to the presenter's death in 2011, the pair became such a close friends that the then Prince Charles leaned on him during the breakdown of his marriage to Princess Diana and looked to him as a mentor.
The DJ who, after his death, was at the centre of a national sexual abuse scandal, was also considered as the King's media adviser and party planner and at one point, was in the running for the role of godfather for his sons, Princes William and Harry.
In the bombshell book, Mr Quinn wrote: 'Perhaps the most embarrassing adviser–royal relationship was that between Prince Charles, as he then was, and TV personality and paedophile Jimmy Savile.'
Mr Quinn went on to reveal that King Charles was so enamoured by the Jim'll Fix It host that he asked Savile if he would consider joining his staff on a formal basis full time.

However the BBC star declined at the time and continued with his work in front of the camera.
The bombshell book reads: 'Mountbatten introduced Savile to Charles, who quickly took to him, and Savile became Charles’s media adviser, marriage guidance counsellor and party planner.
'He was even considered as a godfather for William and Harry and at one point Charles felt Savile should join his staff on a formal basis. Luckily for Charles, Savile preferred the limelight of television.'
And that wasn't the only sign of the deep friendship between the pair.
Savile was thought of so highly by the King that he became the first civilian to be awarded a green beret, making him an honorary Royal Marine.
When the disgraced star died, he was also buried with the mark of respect.
And on Savile's 80th birthday, Charles sent him a very personal gift, a box of cigars and a note that said: 'Nobody will ever know what you have done for this country, Jimmy.’

In December a Christmas card sent from the King was put up for sale on eBay, more than a decade after it was first sold at auction.
The greetings card, which features a portrait of Charles with Princes William and Harry on the inside, was first sent in 2003, when Harry was 19 and William was 21.
The card, which went on sale for £1,500 reads: 'Jimmy, wishing you a very Happy Christmas and New Year, Charles.'
The front of the card bears the gold gilt seal of the Prince of Wales, as King Charles was then.
On the back of the card is a sticker from Dreweatts Bloomsbury from 2012, marking the year that the card was first sold as a collection of Savile's 'treasures' - following his death in 2011.
Over the course of their friendship - including the notorious sex criminal receiving the royal approval of a knighthood - Charles and Savile had decades worth of written exchanges, some of which has already gone for sale.
Last year, a handwritten letter from the king to Savile went up for auction. The letter thanked the now-infamous child rapist, for a £40,000 hospital donation.
And on Savile's 80th birthday, Charles sent him a very personal gift, a box of cigars and a note that said: 'Nobody will ever know what you have done for this country, Jimmy.’
The letters went up for sale on an online website in the RR Auction in the US, alongside an invitation from Savile to Princess Diana, as well as a telegram with the typed names of the former Prince and the Princess of Wales with their young sons.
Items from the collection were expected to take in between $400 and $1000.
After his death in 2011, Savile was unmasked as one of the nation's most prolific sexual abusers of both women and children - having exploited his position in the public sphere to feign trust and gain access to potential victims.
The king is understood not to have had any knowledge of the accusations against Savile at the time of their friendship.
