The photo has quickly gotten attention on social media, leading to discussions about Dorante-Day’s unusual claims of being related to the royal family. Dorante-Day, who now lives in Australia, was born in the UK in 1966 and was adopted by a family with ties to royal service.
He says his adoptive grandmother, who he claims worked for Queen Elizabeth II, revealed on her deathbed that he was the child of then-Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles
In recent years, he has used social media to share his story, gaining followers and support as he posts regular updates.
According to Dorante-Day, the timeline of his birth matches the period when Charles and Camilla were allegedly in a close relationship.
If his claims are true, Charles and Camilla would have been 17 and 18 years old when he was born.
However, official records show that the two didn’t meet until about five years later, making his claims controversial and not backed up by the usual royal timeline.
Despite these differences, Dorante-Day remains firm in seeking acknowledgment and continues to call for a paternity test, hoping it will prove he is Charles and Camilla’s secret child.
This claim, while controversial, has caught the interest of many, especially his social media followers, who often show their support.
Dorante-Day stays active with his audience on his Facebook page, where he shares photos and personal updates, often getting lively reactions from his followers.
Some are convinced of his royal ties, with one person commenting, “I believe you, I’ve believed you for years,” while another said, “The resemblance is outstanding. You would make a beautiful king.”
Many people think his daughter looks a lot like Princess Charlotte, with some calling the similarity “uncanny” and others saying the two “could be sisters.”
Now, Dorante-Day seems to be stepping up his efforts.
He hopes to push King Charles and Queen Camilla to agree to a paternity test to settle his claims once and for all.
With his wife, he is said to be planning a legal challenge, though he has kept quiet about the specific steps he plans to take.
In an interview with 7News, he said: “What [legal action] am I going to do this time? Well, I’d be a very silly person that when he comes into the same jurisdiction as me not to do something. But I think I’d be even sillier to let that cat out of the bag right now.”
As he continues to build his case, Dorante-Day regularly posts comparison photos of himself and the royals—and his latest one might be the most convincing yet.
One person wrote: “Now I am convinced! I thought you were Prince William!”
“Got a look of Prince Andrew in that photo, Simon, and also a look of Prince William. I really do hope you get to the bottom of your heritage…you are owed recognition,” another person agreed.
A third added: “In this picture, YOU and William DEFINITELY look alike! Without a doubt! I have never seen this picture before. Wow!”
