List of Lady and Gentleman Ushers

1

This page is a list of Lady and Gentleman Ushers of the Royal Household of the United Kingdom from the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660 up to the present day. Gentleman Ushers originally formed three classes: Gentleman Ushers of the Privy Chamber, Gentleman Ushers Daily Waiters and Gentleman Ushers Quarterly Waiters. The number of ordinary ushers of these classes were fixed at four, four, and eight respectively, but ushers "in extraordinary" were also sometimes appointed. After 1901 these distinctions between the Gentleman Ushers were abolished, except between the ordinary and extraordinary ushers (and two "honorary" ushers in the early 20th century). The first Lady Usher in Ordinary was appointed in 2021. There are currently 10 Lady and Gentleman Ushers with two representing the Royal Navy, four representing the Army and four representing the Royal Air Force. For more information on the Ushers' history and roles see Lady and Gentleman Usher.
