A man asserting that he is the ‘secret son’ of King Charles and Queen Camilla has shared a picture of his daughter, igniting online debate over her alleged likeness to Princess Charlotte.
Simon Dorante-Day’s Persistent Claims
Australian resident Simon Charles Dorante-Day has spent years in the spotlight, insisting he is the hidden child of the royal pair. Born in England in 1966 and adopted as a baby, he remains committed to proving his royal heritage.
Dorante-Day claims that his adoptive grandmother—who he alleges worked for the late Queen Elizabeth II—confessed on her deathbed that he was the biological son of King Charles and Queen Camilla. However, official records dispute his assertions, showing that the royal couple met five years after his birth.
The royal family has chosen to remain entirely silent on the issue, refusing to respond to Dorante-Day’s claims.
Viral Images and Online Backing
Although there has been no official acknowledgment, Dorante-Day has built a dedicated following on Facebook, where he regularly shares updates and side-by-side photos. His most recent post, which shows a picture of his daughter Meriam alongside Princess Charlotte, has sparked even more speculation.
Many of his followers argue that the resemblance is undeniable. One user remarked, “Unbelievable. Truly.” Another added, “They look like sisters.” Others expressed, “You resemble both of them so much, I hope you get the answers you seek soon,” and, “The likeness is striking. You’d make a wonderful king.”
A Potential Legal Battle?
With rumors circulating that King Charles may visit Australia later this year, Dorante-Day views this as a chance to take legal action. He is preparing to push for a paternity test, hoping to force the royal family to acknowledge his allegations.
In an interview with 7News, he hinted at a possible legal move, saying, “What am I going to do this time? Well, I’d be a very foolish person not to act when he comes into the same jurisdiction as me. But I think I’d be even more foolish to reveal my plans right now.”
For the moment, Dorante-Day remains dedicated to sharing his story and gaining more support. Whether his claims will ever be validated is still uncertain, but his resolve to challenge the royal family persists.
