The Secret Heir: A Man’s Claim to Royal Blood
A man claiming to be King Charles’ secret son has released new evidence to prove his royal heritage.
King Charles, 75, is the son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. He became King of the United Kingdom following his mother’s passing in 2022, becoming the oldest person to ascend the British throne. Before becoming monarch, King Charles married Princess Diana from 1981 to 1996, and they had two sons:
Prince William, 41, and Prince Harry, 39. The 75-year-old has been married to Camilla Parker Bowles since 2005, and they have never had any children together.
However, one man claims he is the royal couple’s secret love child, and he is determined to prove it.
The Mysterious Claim
British-born Simon Charles Dorante-Day, now living in Australia, has gone viral with his surprising claims. He’s convinced he’s the illegitimate son of King Charles and Queen Camilla. The 57-year-old even has a Facebook page dedicated to the matter with over 27,000 followers.
Many of Dorante-Day’s followers are convinced by his claims. One fan wrote, “You look so like both of them, I hope you get answers soon.” Another added, “Definitely so much resemblance to the King and Queen. The other day I saw some recent photos of Prince William, and the resemblance to you is incredible.”
A third person commented, “You are a good mix of both your parents. It’s hard to deny what everyone can see. As always, I hope one day you get your answers.”
A Family Secret Revealed
Dorante-Day earlier claimed that on her deathbed, his adopted grandmother, who supposedly worked for the late Queen Elizabeth II, informed him that he was the royal couple’s son. He was adopted when he was about eight months old in Portsmouth in 1966; King Charles and Queen Camilla would have been 17 and 18, respectively, at the time of his birth.
Dorante-Day claims that in the months leading up to his birth, King Charles was sent to Australia to study, while Queen Camilla disappeared from public view for approximately nine months. He also alleges that during his childhood, he underwent a procedure to change his eye color and had his teeth altered in a ‘cover-up.’
However, his claims contradict official records, which state that King Charles and Queen Camilla met five years after his birth. The royal family has remained completely silent about Dorante-Day’s allegations.
A Strange Encounter
Dorante-Day expanded on his charges in an interview with 7News. He claims that a woman with an American accent contacted him and his wife at their Queensland house early on December 2, 2023. The 57-year-old says they opened the door to see the older woman and a man claiming to be a private investigator.
“This woman claimed that she was the secret illegitimate daughter of Prince Philip who lived in San Francisco,” Dorante-Day said. “She explained that she had traveled from the US after hiring an investigator to track me down in Queensland.
The whole purpose of her visit was to ask me for a sample of my DNA. She wanted to compare it to hers to basically prove that we were both related to the royal family.”
But Dorante-Day concluded it was a scam, adding, “The whole thing just seemed really fishy.” He was also concerned it was an “illegal attempt to procure my DNA.”
The Quest for Truth
Dorante-Day is determined to obtain a paternity test from King Charles and Queen Camilla in the proper manner. He claims he’s sure his case will come together and is ready to show it. In fact, he has a unique idea to match his DNA to Prince Harry’s.
Dorante-Day tells 7News that he and his wife were persuaded by a reliable source that the Duke of Sussex could be instrumental in helping them acquire evidence. His wife explains, “We got advice from a really good, really trusted source that we should approach Harry and make a connection there and ask for DNA.”
Dorante-Day adds, “So I’m going to make contact with him and explore this as an opportunity. At the end of the day, I feel like he just might be as keen as I am to expose what Charles and Camilla and the powers that be have done to me. The injustice.”
Gathering Evidence
In the meantime, the 57-year-old has taken to his prominent Facebook page to offer photographs he says are convincing enough to back up his claims. Dorante-Day’s most recent post to the account, on May 1, reads, “One advantage of them becoming King and Queen is that we have a lot more photographs to compare with, from many different viewpoints. The more I observe, the more they resemble me.”
As Dorante-Day continues his quest for the truth, the world watches, intrigued by the possibility of a hidden royal connection. Whether his claims are ever validated remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: his story has captured the imagination of many.
