An Australian man who claims he is the lovechild of Charles and Camilla says he wants Netflix to make a story about his secret upbringing.

Simon Charles Dorante-Day says he has been approached by 'leading' documentary makers in the UK and US about his claims - which he says come from years of research.

The 56-year-old, who lives in Queensland, Australia, was born in Gosport, on the south coast of England, in 1966, and was adopted by a local couple.

The father-of-nine claims his adoptive grandparents, both of whom had worked in the royal household, told him he was the child of the now King and Queen Consort.

He says his research shows the pair met in 1965, a year before his birth, and kept news of Camilla's pregnancy a secret with the help of the royal household.

However his claims are disputed, because Charles and Camilla are widely reported to have met at a polo match in Windsor Great Park in 1970. 

Mr Dorante-Day has for years spoken of his desire for the royals submit to a DNA test to prove his genetic heritage.

He is now hoping streaming giant Netflix will tell his story in a documentary - a move he believes could put pressure on Buckingham Palace to address his claims.

Speaking to Australia's 7News about his desire to work with Netflix, makers of hit royal drama The Crown, he said: 'I've been inundated in recent weeks with many documentary filmmakers and filmmaking companies keen to share my story.

'I didn't expect this to happen - but I'm glad it is. I'm considering their offers.

'Ultimately I would like to see my story on Netflix, or a similar streaming platform, and will approach them about doing so.

What is Simon Charles Dorante-Day's claim that he is the son of Charles and Camilla?

Simon Charles Dorante-Day was born in Gosport, near Portsmouth, on April 5, 1966.

He was adopted at eight months old before his family later settled in Australia.

Both of Mr Dorante-Day's adoptive grandparents had worked for the Queen and Prince Philip and he claims his adoptive grandmother told him he was the son of Charles and Camilla.

Mr Dorante-Day alleges King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla began their close relationship in 1965, a year before his birth certificate says he was born.

He claims that Queen Consort Camilla was absent from the British social scene and King Charles was sent on a trip to Australia nine months before he was born.

Mr Dorante-Day has frequently put pictures of himself and family members next to those of the Windsor family to show the resemblance.

He also believes inconsistencies on his birth certificate and his name also prove he is of royal blood.

But his timeline of events contradicts official records that say the new King and Camilla met each other five years after Mr Dorante-Day's birth.

Mr Dorante-Day claimed his research suggests Charles and Camilla first became close in 1965, meeting at Winston Churchill's funeral in January of that year.

However, Charles and Camilla are widely reported to have met at a polo match in Windsor Great Park in 1970.

'I know that sharing my story and getting as many people aware of my claims as possible is going to be key to having Charles and Camilla address my claims. 

Mr Dorante-Day, who says he is planning a trip to the UK, claims he is 'in talks' with at least one person in regards to his story.

And he says his ultimate goal is to get a DNA test from Charles and Camilla through 'proper legal means'.  

He told 7News: 'I'm looking forward to going back to the UK and really ramping up my quest for answers.

'I've even got radio interviews lined up in Glasgow, Manchester, Dublin, and Portsmouth when I finally get over there.'

Mr Dorante-Day was born in Gosport, near Portsmouth,
