π₯ FORMER ROYAL CHEF SPILLS THE TEA on Camilla β What He Reveals at 63 Has SHOCKED the Palace π³π«
For over 15 years, Mark Ramsden (name changed by request) worked behind the scenes at some of the most powerful royal residences β Clarence House, Balmoral, and Highgrove β preparing gourmet meals and witnessing the monarchy from the inside.
And in all that time, he never spoke to the press.
Until now.
βI kept quiet for decades,β he says, sitting in a modest kitchen far from palace walls.
βBut after watching the coronation, after seeing Camilla rise to Queenβ¦ I just couldnβt keep it in anymore.β
And what he reveals?
Changes everything.
Mark describes his early years cooking for Prince Charles as βroutine, respectful, even enjoyable.β
But everything, he claims, began to change when Camilla became a regular fixture in the household.
βAt first, she kept her distance. She wouldnβt even look at the staff. I assumed it was nerves,β he recalls.
βBut thenβ¦ the attitude came.β
According to Mark, Camilla quickly made her presence felt in ways the public never saw.
βShe didnβt scream. She didnβt throw plates. But she had thisβ¦ aura. This unspoken rule. You were beneath her.β
And it wasnβt just the staff who noticed.
Mark claims that even senior royal aides struggled with her presence.
βTheyβd say βbe careful today, sheβs in a mood.β Or, βdonβt bring that up near her.ββ
But the moment that truly stuck with him?
It happened during a private dinner at Highgrove.
Princess Diana was still alive.
Camilla was still the other woman.
And Charles had requested a quiet dinner βwith close friends.β
Camilla arrived late.
Mark says he witnessed her walking into the kitchen β completely ignoring the team β and demanding changes to the menu.
βShe looked at the dish, wrinkled her nose and said, βCharles doesnβt eat peasant food.ββ
That line β burned into Markβs memory β became a symbol for what he saw as Camillaβs condescension.
But it wasnβt just attitude.
It was what Camilla allegedly said about Diana that floored him.
βSheβd make little jabs. Nothing direct. But once I heard her say, βSheβs not built for this life. Let her go find herself on a magazine cover.ββ
Mark insists that the kitchen staff often felt caught in the middle.
βDiana was warm. She would smile at us. Ask our names. She once walked into the kitchen barefoot and thanked us for a soup we made.β
Camilla?
βShe never said thank you. Not once.β
But what about now β now that Camilla is Queen Consort?
Mark doesnβt hold back.
βImage management. Thatβs what this is,β he says.
βTheyβve polished her, softened her edges. But I know what we saw behind closed doors.β
He says he was shocked watching Camilla walk beside Charles during the coronation.
βI couldnβt believe it. This is the same woman who used to refuse to eat anything βbrown or beige.β Now sheβs smiling for the nation.β
But perhaps the most chilling part of Markβs account?
He claims Camilla once ordered staff to remove all photos of Diana from one of the private residences.
βShe said, βThis is my home now.β The photos were gone within the hour.β
Still, Mark says he doesnβt speak out from hate β but from a need for honesty.
βThe public deserves to know the difference between a public figureβ¦ and a person.β
Fans of the royal family are divided.
Some have rallied behind Camilla, calling Markβs claims βoutdatedβ and βbitter.β
Others say his words validate years of suspicions.
βShe played the long game,β one Twitter user wrote.
βShe knew how to waitβ¦ and win.β
And what about the palace?
No comment β of course.
Royal insiders refuse to engage with βgossip,β but sources close to Buckingham Palace did not deny Markβs history or time served in royal kitchens.
In fact, two former staffers have come forward anonymously, backing his claims.
βShe treated us like shadows,β one said.
βShe wouldnβt even speak to us unless she needed something changed.β
As the clip of Markβs interview circulates online, royal commentators are already debating the long-term impact of these revelations.
βCamillaβs PR has been carefully managed for years,β says one analyst.
βBut this kind of insider detail? It cracks the surface.β
And cracks it has.
Already, hashtags like #RealCamilla and #RoyalChefSpills are trending across platforms.
YouTube reactions are dissecting every sentence.
TikTok is flooded with dramatic reenactments and side-by-side comparisons of Diana and Camillaβs treatment of staff.
And perhaps most telling?
One old clip of Diana hugging a kitchen maid has gone viral again β captioned:
βThe real Queen of hearts.β
For Mark, the reaction has been overwhelming.
βI didnβt expect this to blow up,β he says.
βBut maybe itβs time someone said what others were too afraid to.β
Because behind the gold cutlery, behind the royal smiles and designer gowns, there are stories.
And at 63, this former chef has just served one the palace will never forget.
