Prince George is set to be spoiled by his grandparents and the Duchess of Cornwall, and while we don’t yet know what he will call her, Camilla revealed yesterday her own grandchildren call her “Gaga”.
The 66-year-old grandmother of five told revealed the nickname to the Daily Mail, with one disclaimer.
“My own grandchildren call me GaGa. I don’t know if it’s because they think I am!” she said.
“It is funny but is still very sweet.”
Camilla has five grandchildren under the age of five from her first marriage to Andrew Parker Bowles and is thrilled to add to the brood with the addition of Prince George, who is the first grandchild of her husband Prince Charles.
“We are all just about to go off on holiday together, there will be seven children in all. Can you imagine?” she said.
“It can be quite chaotic but I just love having them around.”
Prince Charles will insist on being called ‘Grandpa’ by the week-old Prince George when he gets older, but when it came to discussing what Camilla’s nickname would be she said they hadn’t decided yet.
“That’s something we have got to have a think about.”
Grandpa Charles has described becoming a grandfather as “wonderful” and royal watchers have said he has never seemed so cheerful and relaxed since welcoming his first grandson.
“It’s a wonderful feeling [to be a grandfather],” he said on a visit to the Sandringham flower festival yesterday.
He told well wishers that he had enjoyed meeting the “very sweet” baby George, but felt a bit out of practice with the little one.
“I think I am going to have to go on a babysitting course as it’s a while since I have done this sort of thing,” he said.
