Good Grief

There’s always one.

A British-born Aussie who believes he is the lovechild of King Charles III and Queen consort Camilla has said it is a ‘kick in the face’ to see William named as the Prince of Wales.

Queensland-based engineer Simon Charles Dorante-Day, 56, was adopted at eight months old and maintains that his adoptive grandmother told him on her deathbed that he was the ‘secret son’ of Charles and Camilla.

It’s been a while since we heard from this fantasist. But I suppose this is precisely the occasion such nutcases creep out of the woodwork. He has zero evidence to support his claims yet pursues them anyway. Worse, lawyers take his money to go along with it.

‘It’s hard not to take Charles naming William as the Prince of Wales as anything other than a kick in the face,’ Mr Dorante-Day told News7.

‘I don’t want to feel that way, but I do. I just think, the least Charles can do is give me an answer – acknowledge me. He gives William a title like that, well where’s my answer? Where’s my DNA test? If you are not my father, then prove you’re not.’

He doesn’t have to prove anything, nor is he obliged to acknowledge anything. Least of all to some nutter who is making extraordinary and baseless claims. You think you have a case, well you prove it.

But his timeline of events contradicts official records that say the new King and Camilla met each other five years after Mr Dorante-Day’s birth.

Well, that’s inconvenient.

  1. And if King Charles pandered to the nutter by supplying a DNA sample, which tested negative, then the nutter would say that there was another leg of the conspiracy to interfere with the sample and so on, and on, and on.

    Serious(ish) question – does treatment of people with Psilocybin or other mind altering drugs reduce the strength of conspiracy theories? It is said to reduce bad depression.

  2. Even if he was their bastard he’s not going to be included in the order of succession. In olden days he might have be given a title. I’d suggest he doesn’t raise an army and try to invade though: the last royal bastard who tried that lost his head.

    • No he doesn’t: he fought the White Walkers. Surely to be fully inclusive he should have fought the Diverse Walkers.

  3. And his red hair is from his mother’s side. Her sister and brother were red haired and one of his cousins is the splitting image. Red hair is dominant.
