Married for 22 years until their timely divorce in 1995, the pair had two children together, Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Lopes.

After the news of her affair with the at-the-time Prince Charles rapidly spread across the globe, Camilla caught everyone’s attention and it wasn’t for the better. Yet, the mother managed to keep her children away from the drama and the public’s harsh eyes.

However, as Camilla was officially crowned the Queen of the British monarchy alongside her husband, King Charles on May 6, 2023, there was be no hiding her kids from the public any longer.

Both Tom and Laura were in attendance along with their step-siblings, Prince Harry and Prince William.

More formally known as Thomas Henry Charles Parker Bowles, he is the eldest child of Camilla and Andrew, born on December 18, 1974.

At the time of his birth, the then Prince Charles was named his godfather as he and Camilla maintained a close friendship.

Now 49 years old, Tom is a British food writer and food critic. Reportedly, he was inspired by his own mother’s cooking skills and recipes.

Tom is the author of five cookbooks and won an award in 2010 for his writings on British food, and he also appeared as a judge on the Australian cooking show, The Hot Plate in 2015.
