A man convinced he is the love child of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall claims Princess Diana knew of his existence before her death.
Simon Dorante-Day, 52, was born in Gosport, near Portsmouth, in April 1966, and was adopted at 18 months old by British couple Karen and David Day.
He now lives in Queensland, Australia, where he has spoken a number of times about his outlandish belief that he was placed for adoption by the then 18-year-old Camilla Shand. Prince Charles would have been 17 at the time Simon was conceived.
In a new interview with New Idea, Mr Dorante-Day explained he believes Princess Diana knew of his birth and that she had been preparing to 'go public' before her death in 1997.
He also recently shared a photo which he claims shows striking physical similarities between himself and members of the royal family.
