I had completely forgotten about the weird Australian guy who is convinced that he is King Charles’ secret lovechild. He kept cropping up around the time of Charles’ ascension to the throne last autumn, but seems to have disappeared in recent times – it obviously makes perfect sense that he would reappear in time for the coronation though right?

57 year old Simon Durante Day thinks that he was conceived when King Charles visited Australia with Camilla Parker Bowles back in 1965 when the pair were just teenagers and was then adopted and raised by one of the Royal Family’s staff members after they gave up the baby due to the controversy that woudl have surrounded it. That staff member was Simon’s grandmother, who apparently revealed all this to the guy on her deathbed. Sounds legit.

Simon is now claiming that he has proof of his outlandish statements. Here’s what he had to say:

Him being King doesn’t make me any less his son, does it?

I’m going to be pursuing what I’m pursuing. I have my proof of where I stand with this.

I’ve got no fear in the truth in this. I won’t be the one with egg on my face.

My grandmother, who had worked for the Queen, told me outright that I was Camilla and Charles’ son many times.

So the fact that I’m still seeking answers in my case is a bit of a bug for his Coronation because I’m not going to stop.

I’m determined to get them both to do DNA tests.

Do I think it’s going to impede my case with him as King?

No, I don’t see it does because as I said, there’s still rule of law – and one of the most basic principles is that no one is above the law.

OK so that’s not really a bombshell interview and just because Simon says he has proof doesn’t actually mean that he has any, especially as he isn’t presenting it to the general public and is just whining on at the King and Queen to do a DNA test. I know it’s a bit outrageous to expect the Royal Family – or anyone for that matter – to take a DNA test when some jobber comes out of the woodwork claiming to be a secret lovechild, but maybe it would be worth it on this occasion to make this guy look like the massive dosser that he is? Just putting the idea out there. Would be so funny to shut this whack job up for good.
