Abiding admirers

The Shah Rukh Khan magic held sway... and Gurgaon virtually came to a standstill as news spread that SRK was slated to attend a promotional event at a plush mall.
Thousands of abiding admirers trooped in and although King Khan was driven to the venue by F1 racer Karun Chandhok, he was late by an hour thanks to the buzzing traffic. And didn't waste a moment to voice his sentiments too on Twitter.
Tweets SRK, "Driving down Delhi roads... strangely feel my parents around me. Had been on these roads with them all the time, miss them but feel them."

Please explain to me what "abiding admirer" means here.

Though I know "abiding" generally means "lasting for a long time" and "admirer" means "a person who praises/admires/respects others"
