Virginia gets allowed a servant (5)
I believe the answer is:
valet
'a servant' is the definition.
(valet is a kind of servant)
'virginia gets allowed' is the wordplay.
'virginia' becomes 'va' (US state abbreviation).
'gets' says to put letters next to each other.
'allowed' becomes 'let' (I've seen this before).
'va'+'let'='VALET'
(Other definitions for valet that I've seen before include "Clean (a car); attendant" , "Jeeves?" , "Gentleman's assistant" , "Man's manservant" , "Personal manservant" .)
