Long before she became King Charles III's wife and Britain's queen consort, Queen Camilla was married to Andrew Parker Bowles, with whom she raised two children.

Though Camilla's son and her daughter may share less of the public limelight than their royal step siblings—Prince William and Prince Harry—Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Lopes still have a key role in supporting their mother behind the scenes. Even Camilla's five grandchildren play a part in serving the crown, as Buckingham Palace recently announced that her grandsons will act as pages of honor in the May 6 coronation.

Ahead, read everything you need to know about Camilla's kids and grandchildren.

Thomas Henry Charles Parker Bowles is Camilla and Andrew's oldest child. He was born on December 18, 1974. The then-Prince Charles—who was by then close friends with Camilla—was named his godfather at the time.

He made a name for himself by becoming a food writer, having been published in outlets like GQ, Esquire, and The Mail on Sunday, as well as writing several cookbooks. In 2010, he won the Guild of Food Writers for Full English, a travelogue on English cuisine.

Tom married Sara Buys in September 2005. His stepbrothers, Prince William and Prince Harry, attended the ceremony at Oxfordshire's St Nicholas' Church. The couple later welcomed two kids, Lola and Freddy, before ultimately splitting in 2018.

Camilla and Andrew welcomed their second child, Laura Rosa Parker Bowles, on January 1, 1978.

She studied History of Art and Marketing at Oxford Brookes University, and went on to become a successful art curator. In 2005, she cofounded London's Eleven Fine Art, where she worked as the gallery director for the next 10 years.

She married Harry Lopes, the grandson of Lord Astor of Hever, in May 2006. They share three children: Eliza, Gus, and Louis.

Camilla's Grandchildren

Lola Parker Bowles

Tom and Sara's daughter, Lola, is Camilla's oldest grandchild. She was born on October 9, 2007.

Eliza Lopes

Eliza, the eldest child of Laura and Harry, was born on January 16, 2008. When she was three years old, she served as a little bridesmaid in the 2011 wedding of William and Kate Middleton (now Catherine, Princess of Wales).

Camilla once referred to Eliza or Lola during a 2022 interview with British Vogue. "I do Wordle every day with my granddaughter," the royal told the magazine. "She’ll text me to say, 'I’ve done it in three,' and I say, 'Sorry, I’ve done it in two today.' It’s very satisfactory when it tells you how brilliant you are."
