"Years ago I had a chance to meet his mom," he said gesturing towards Mr Parker Bowles, 39.
"I met Camilla at the White House about a decade ago and as I was taking a picture I felt a tight little squeeze on my right buttock. I turned and a woman, in a very wistful, little impish way, said to me: 'So nice to finally meet you in the flesh."Grammer, who was named runner-up to Arnold Schwarzenegger as cigar smoker of the year at the awards on Sunday night, also managed to make fellow fellow guest Nancy Dell'Olio blush with a compliment during his acceptance speech."It has been a fantastic evening full of fantastic people and I am very honoured to be here," he said."I would also like to add that Nancy Dell'Olio has done more for red lace than anyone in history."
