Despite this, many elements of Simon’s story raise doubts. Historical records show that Charles and Camilla didn’t meet until 1971 — five years after Simon says he was born. At the time of Simon’s claimed birth in 1966, Camilla would have been 18 and Charles only 17. While technically possible for them to have had a child at that age, the timeline conflicts with their documented histories. Buckingham Palace has never commented on his allegations.

Still, Simon remains defiant. Now in his late 50s, he continues to pursue legal action — currently representing himself in two unrelated Supreme Court cases in Queensland. He insists his case for royal recognition remains active.

Looking for connection — and claiming one with Prince Harry

Simon has also drawn parallels between his story and that of Prince Harry. He describes both of them as “black sheep” of the royal family and says he sees a connection with the Duke of Sussex, particularly in how they’ve both been outsiders. In recent interviews, Simon has expressed admiration for Meghan Markle, likening her experiences to those of his own wife, and has offered public support for the Sussexes.

But while Simon has supporters online and claims to have gathered extensive research, the lack of official recognition or credible documentation has kept his story on the fringes.

For now, Simon remains a curiosity — a man on a personal mission, fighting a royal claim no one in the monarchy has ever acknowledged. Whether his case ever receives legal attention, or simply fades into royal folklore, remains to be seen.
