Charles and Camilla's 'secret son' posts emotional message on Mother's Day in Australia

Mother's day in Australia was far from being a day filled with love and laughter for Simon Dorante-Day. Convinced he is Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles' secret son, the 55-year-old Australian citizen posted a long message on Facebook on Sunday 9 May, Mother's day in Australia. In his post, he explained how tough it is for him to celebrate the holiday without his supposed biological mother, Camilla Parker-Bowles.

A big hug to all of those of you who miss their Mother, never got to speak to or touch their Mother, never knew their Mother, and Mother's who have lost or had to give up their children.

I feel your pain - everyday and I know she does too.

Dorante-Day received numerous messages of support from his 12k followers, to which he answered:

This day is never easy to get through, but you've helped me through it.

Even though the Prince of Wales and his wife have never answered the man's allegations, Dorante-Day is convinced he is their son. He has taken his case to court on several occasions, but always in vain.

Another secret son in the royal family?

Dorante-Day has also come to the defence of another man who claims to be Edward VIII's son, who had abdicated the throne for Wallis Simpson. Dorante-Day told 7news:

When Edward was Prince of Wales, he had the reputation of being a ladies' man. A man in Belgium claims to be Edward's son. He has shared some photos where he looks an awful lot like him, and he also looks a lot like me.
