Queen Camilla’s son Tom Parker Bowles was asked about being given a prince title during a recent podcast appearance.<\/p>\n

Tom joked that Buckingham Palace would be “stormed” if he was titled.<\/p>\n

He called the prospect “appalling” and said he’d be keeping his name.<\/p>\n

Prince William’s step-brother has entered the chat. Queen Camilla’s son, Tom Parker Bowles, just gave an interview with the Good Food Podcast (via The Telegraph<\/a>) and was asked about the possibility of being made a prince, joking that Buckingham Palace would be “stormed” if he didn’t keep his “original name.”<\/p>\n

“I tell you, that would be the quickest way to revolution,” he joked. “I think we\u2019re a fairly balanced and sober and sensible country on the whole. But if I suddenly became prince, I think that Buckingham Palace gates would be stormed.”<\/p>\n

He added, “It would be appalling. I think that would put back the long and glorious cause of the monarchy in Britain by many years.”<\/p>\n

Tom also confirmed that he touched the Crown Jewels at the coronation, saying “They had some of the Crown Jewels, because the King and my mother had to practie carrying [them]… and it was just, I think it was the sceptre, or the diadem, I can\u2019t remember. Anyway, just to hold it briefly was \u2013 you\u2019re holding history, you\u2019re holding 800 or 900 years of history, it\u2019s incredible.”<\/p>\n

He also gushed about his step-father, King Charles, saying he’s a “fountain of knowledge,” has “forgotten more than I will ever know,” and is a “hero of British farmers.” Meanwhile, Tom said of his mother Queen Camilla, “She\u2019s a great cook, a natural cook, and there weren\u2019t many spices\u2026 it was very, very traditional. I grew up in Wiltshire in the \u201970s and early \u201980s. We\u2019d have English food.”<\/p>\n
