I’ve met Charles and Camilla at the Royal Variety, I can’t remember the year. But they’re great!
Camilla loves the arts, she loves dancing. She’s got a twinkle in her eye. She’s a very nice lady.
And Charles is a very kind and nice man. I think Camilla probably would love a dance act to win because she likes dancing.
Charles, I would say more of a singer. I think a soul singer. Something that’s emotionally engaging. A Shirley Bassey number, something like that.
And we’ve had a few. I think he’s going to love what we have on offer.

I’ve met him (King Charles) many times because I’m an ambassador for the Prince’s Trust. He’s very warm, a lovely person.
I’ve got two really good memories of him. My first was when I was actually in Mis-Teeq and we performed.
He came over for a chat and there’s a famous photo of me with my arm on his shoulder because I was like, ‘Oh, it’s just Prince Charles, we’re just going to have a little chat’.
And we were having a laugh with him. I’ve taken my Nan for a little tour around Highgrove Gardens with him before.
So I find him very personable and approachable because I’ve had several conversations with him and I like him.”

King Charles is lovely. He’s wonderful and very funny.
I think he’d love to see something like an opera singer but then I also think he’d love to see something funny or slightly naughty because those evenings are really long, it’s nice to have a bit of fun.
He does watch BGT, I know that much. I remember when the boys were younger I did something for one of his birthdays, a little skit, and I asked Harry if he could do any juggling or anything like that.
He said his dad was useless at stuff like that, but they all watched Britain’s Got Talent.

There are times where I just can’t stop laughing because it’s like the poor guy could end up seeing a guy who is blowing darts out with his bum and bursting things! What is he going to think?
The other part of me was sad because of all the years we’ve been doing it, we had the Queen.
It was difficult actually, when I kept hearing people talk about the King instead of the Queen, it takes a while to get used to that.
At one point we joked, ‘There goes my knighthood’, when one act blew candles out with his bottom.”
I don’t think it’s going to really make any difference.
If I haven’t got one now, I don’t think I’m ever going to get one!
