He was named for [Reggie Kray](http://www.thekrays.co.uk/images/reg1.jpg), a legendary British mobster. Not so cute.

I’d be suspicious if I were Camilla. That [poor critter](http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/40900000/jpg/_40900824_baboonbody.jpg) is the spitting image of [Prince Charles](http://www.staff.ucsm.ac.uk/vobrien/vobrien/HST%20201/socialpolicy%201/images/prince.charles.jpg).
