Queen Camilla buys 1 parcel from delivery guy to show support
Queen Camilla shines spotlight on UK’s unsung meal delivery heroes
Queen Camilla traded tiaras for tatties this week and proved she’s got quite the knack for comfort food royalty.
Hosting a heartwarming event at Clarence House to mark Meals on Wheels Week, the Queen rolled up her sleeves to serve jacket potatoes alongside none other than TikTok sensation Spudman known to his millions of followers as Ben Newman.
In a scene that could’ve been straight from a viral video, Camilla joined the social media star in dishing out loaded potatoes to delighted guests, including TV presenter Gaby Roslin and The Voice UK’s Tom Read Wilson.
“She’s a natural!” Spudman beamed. “Getting the butter on there, serving customers, brilliant. She did a really good job.”
The Queen didn’t just serve she sampled. Opting for a classic tuna mayonnaise filling, Camilla tucked into her own spud with a smile, reminiscing about the time her food critic son Tom Parker Bowles tried his famous potatoes in 2024.
“He’s never forgotten it,” she told him much to Spudman’s delight.
The royal kitchen caper also had a deeper purpose, celebrating the work of the National Association of Care Catering (NACC) and the Royal Voluntary Service (RVS), who deliver meals and companionship to elderly and vulnerable people across the UK.
And as it turns out, the her secret ingredient might just be good humour.
