Rasputin had huge influence over the Russian Royal family because he claimed to be able to cure the haemophilia ( an incurable blood disorder ) of the heir to the throne, the Tsarevich. Needless to say, he couldn't and didn't cure the Tsarevich. He was a monk, but he could hardly have behaved less like a monk.

He was extremely ignorant and bigoted, and the population of Russia greatly resented the influence he had over the Tsarina, especially, who was desperate for her son to be cured.

Did Rasputin have family support in the Romanov case?

Yes, most of the family supported Rasputin, Although he died before the Tsar abdictated the throne. Well, to be more specific, the Tsar and Tsarina, as well as their children, loved Rasputin who provided them with great spiritual comfort, as well as easing the episodes of the hemophiliac tsarevitch. However, the Tsar's mother, uncles, cousins, and other relatives hated Rasputin and the Tsarina, who was not Russian by birth (she was born in Germany and raised in England). So Tsar Nicholas and his immediate family were somewhat isolated from the other relatives because of their disaste for both the Tsarina and Rasputin.
