What Will Happen To Camilla’s Children Now That The Queen Is Dead?

Though the responsibilities for Camilla Parker Bowles may be changing, her children will likely not see any changes to their titles and their work. Even with Camilla being queen consort, the king will not give any official titles to her children, Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Lopes, the reason being that Camilla’s title was passed on because of her marriage to King Charles. In fact, when the king leaves the throne, Camilla will lose said title.

Joe Little, who serves as managing editor for Majesty magazine, told Page Six that her children would remain regular folks like the rest of us. However, they may receive new titles or distinction if they are nominated due to “good works,” which are likely acts of service to the throne and Great Britain. Tom and Laura also won’t receive any royal protection. Royal protection officers cover the senior members of the royal family. However, these siblings have not had security since their parents were married and, according to Little, “they won’t get it when the reign changes — unless it’s needed.”

In spite of this, there’s no bad blood between Tom and Laura and their stepfather. Per Us Weekly, Tom, who’s oddly both the stepson and godson of King Charles, spoke well of him in a previous interview with Australian news show “A Current Affair.” He shared in the 2015 interview, “He is a man of warmth, intelligence and humanity and I think if it ever happens, he will make a fantastic king.” Now, that time has come.
