Royal fans are wondering has Camilla, Queen Consort got children and who are are grandchildren?
Camilla Queen Consort is married to the King of England, King Charles III and after he ascended to the throne in the royal line of succession following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, fans are keen to know more about his wife - with many asking does Camilla have children?
It's no secret that the new monarch, King Charles III is father to sons Prince William and Prince Harry. And after their birth mother Princess Diana, died tragically in 1997, the then-Prince of Wales went on to marry Camilla. But as the recent fall-out between Prince Harry, Charles and William shows little sign of slowing, there has been less focus on Camilla's side of the family.
Does Camilla, Queen Consort have children?
Yes, Camilla has two children - son Tom (born 18 December 1974), who is the godson of Prince Charles and daughter Laura (born 1st January 1978). They were born to Camilla's first husband Andrew Parker Bowles and at the time they were raised in their father's Roman Catholic faith.
Both of Camilla's children tend to stay out of the public eye, though they were in attendance at the funeral of the late Queen Elizabeth II, and on June 13 2022 both Tom and Laura attended the Order of the Garter service at St George's Chapel, where their mother was invested as a Royal Lady Knight of the Garter.
