Queen Camilla's Grandkids Call Her the Cutest Nickname With Ties to a Surprising Celebrity

Queen Camilla wearing her coronation crown pointing at something to her grandson Freddy Parker Bowles.

Before she married Prince Charles in 2005, Camilla Parker Bowles was busy raising kids Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Parker Bowles (now Laura Lopes). She went on to become a grandma to Tom's kids Lola, 17, and Freddy, 15, and Laura's daughter Eliza, 17, and twin boys Gus and Louis, 15. Now that she's a member of the Royal Family, Queen Camilla added five more step-grandkids to the crew: Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, Prince Louis, 7, Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 3. While King Charles gets called "Grandpa Wales" by Prince William's kids, Camilla once revealed the adorable name her grandchildren gave her—and she told it to none other than Lady Gaga.

The pop star was one of the famous faces at the 2016 Royal Variety Performance, and when Camilla—then the Duchess of Cornwall—met the "Bad Romance" singer, she shared a "funny" anecdote about her grandkids, who were all very young at the time.
