Tom Parker Bowles, Queen Camilla's son, revealed that his children and their cousins call her 'Gaga' and King Charles 'Uppa'. The nicknames have been used since the children were young.
Lara Walsh is a Chicago-based writer and editor who covers all things fashion, celebrity, pop culture, travel, and food. When she’s not avidly planning her next trip, she’s writing posts for her travel blog or mapping out her next foodie adventure., and the Duke of Sussex and Meghan Markle used the late Queen Elizabeth’s nickname as inspiration when naming their daughter, Lilibet.
“All of our children—my sister’s children, too—have grown up with Gaga and Uppa,” he said about his sister Laura Lopes’s three children, 16-year-old Eliza and 14-year-old twin sons Gus and Louis.“They've grown up from an early age knowing no different.
While King Charles might be the Parker-Bowles kids’ step-grandfather, Tom said that they had a strong bond with the royal due to how hands-on he was when they were growing up. “They adore the king, because he is such a good, nice man. He has been a wonderful step-grandfather, too; he has his own grandchildren, obviously,” he continued. “The children utterly adore him. From an early age, he’s read them stories, been there, and swung them around.”Tom and Laura’s kids might be in their teens now, but the author emphasized that their relationship with Queen Camilla has only evolved and gotten closer as they’ve grown up.
“They adore her,” he told the publication. “My daughter and my niece are at the age now where they ring her and text her, and are very happy doing their own thing together.
