Speaking previously about his close relationship with his ex-wife, Tom has credited his parents for setting a positive example. Queen Camilla and Andrew Parker-Bowles have remained on good terms since their divorce in 1995.
“My mother and father are still great friends, and we will go down [to his] on December 27 and my mother will sometimes come,” Tom told PEOPLE. “It is something to work towards.
“It’s a maturity that is a great thing if — despite a marriage sometimes not working — you can keep it together for the sake of the children and the sake of each other, then it’s a very good thing.”
