“He’s from the north of England, they’re friendly up there. He’s flirtatious, completely versatile and has a bit of a thing for older guys and straight boys.”
Broughton has uploaded several photos of himself in full uniform carrying out royal duties.
He reportedly launched his career in adult films after winning the Mr Gay UK contest in 2007.
The Household Cavalry, one of the oldest regiments in the British Army, also serves as Queen Elizabeth’s official bodyguard as well as carrying out ceremonial duties.

The British royal family will have its first same-sex wedding later this summer, as Lord Ivar Mountbatten, a distant cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, will marry his partner, James Coyle.
He met Coyle in a Swiss ski resort and came out publicly in 2016, becoming the first member of the extended British royal family to do so.
The wedding will take place on Mountbatten’s Bridwell Park country estate in Devon, southwest England.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, Lord Mountbatten said his royal relatives know of the plans and are “really excited for us.”
“Sadly they can’t come to the wedding. Their diaries are arranged months in advance and they’re not around, but they adore James. Everyone adores him,” he said.
Of the couple’s decision to marry and have a wedding, Mountbatten said he wants to do it for his partner.
“For me, what’s interesting is I don’t need to get married because I’ve been there, done that and have my wonderful children; but I’m pushing it because I think it’s important for him.”
