Pensioner requests the queen's DNA analysis

A pensioner has requested an analysis The queen's DNA to prove that he is a descendant of the royal family and the rightful heir to the throne, threatening to sue the Royal Palace Palace house if his request is not considered.

The pensioner has a great similarity to the Windsor Duke, given the title to Edward V III after he relinquished his rights on the throne.

“If my father and I had no claim on the throne because of Edward's decision, which also prevented his descendants from becoming king, at least Graftieux would have noble titles. As the last of my family, I will take any initiative that is necessary to protect our heritage and shed light on one of the biggest sex scandals in the royal palace”, the 73-year-old told local media.

To prove his father's connection to the Windsor house, Graftieaux has asked for the third time, for the royal palace to provide a sample. Queen's DNA.

Graftieaux claims he is not seeking compensation for a title, but that he wants his family to be known as an important part of British royal family history.

But according to English law, the royal family cannot be prosecuted or tried through a civil court. However, Mr. Graftiaux warns of launching a legal case against the Palace itself, thus forcing the launch of an investigation under the supervision of the Human Rights Law.

Moreover, the pensioner's grandmother received a diamond bracelet from Van Cleef and Arpels in 1946, which is an exclusive model created by the Duke of Windsor.

Meanwhile the royal palace, Buckingham Palace, said it would not comment on Graftiaux' claims or his request for a DNA sample.
