Tom Parker Bowles says that he’s not becoming a duke and that he won’t be getting a title, despite the fact that his mother Camilla Parker Bowles will soon officially be the Queen of England. Here’s what you need to know.

Tom Parker Bowles Says That He Is Not Becoming A Duke

While on The News Agents podcast, Tom dismissed the rumors suggesting that he was going to be a duke. He suggested nothing like that is going to happen and that his sister Laura Lopes is not going to become a duchess.

When asked whether or not he is going to get a title, Tom said, “You’re not going to find us with great estates and being called the duke of whatever. No. That would be appalling.”

He also said that he doesn’t think of his mother Camilla as the Queen of England. At least not just yet. He said, “Not really, because she’s still our mother. I say ‘our’ but not the royal ‘we’, speaking for my sister and me. She’s our mother.”

Yet back in March, there was a report suggesting that the powers to be over at Buckingham Palace were trying to make Tom the next Prince Harry, if that makes sense. One royal expert even put it this way, “If indeed Harry is deposed in favor of TPB, it may not be a bad swap. Where the professional spare brings discord, the professional eater brings harmony.”

What’s Next For Tom Parker Bowles?

If that weren’t enough, Tom, who just like Harry, enjoyed his wild partying back in the day and even admitted to snorting cocaine in Cannes. But sources say that he supposedly didn’t end up as “bitter and twisted” like Prince Harry. That’s because he’s not feuding with anyone and is still on good terms with his ex-wife.

The insider said, “They’re still mates, still tight. They were married young. They were both posh, fun, party people, clever and sexy and funny and naughty and all that. I think that can lead to great fun, exciting marriages and then you have children and things will get a bit more gray, but they’re still great friends. He still stays with them at Christmas. I don’t think he ever went to Balmoral.”
