The position of Bagpiper to the Sovereign was recently held by Pipe Major Scott Methven, according to the Express(opens in new tab), who left in 2019 after four years in Her Majesty’s musical service. And not only did he play for her, but the Queen and the royal family even showed up for him in a moment of crisis. When Methven’s wife was diagnosed with Stage 4 terminal cancer, he told the BBC(opens in new tab), the Queen “looked after” his children, who stayed at Balmoral while Methven attended to his wife.
