Being a toff is taboo in the world of pop. So pity poor Preston, frontman of the Indie band The Ordinary Boys and Celebrity Big Brother contestant, who was recently outed as being of aristocratic lineage as a direct descendant of the 19th century Prime Minister, the 2nd Earl Grey. But the mockney-accented crooner is, I can reveal, even more blue-blooded than that. Preston is a kinsman of royalty. The 24 yr-old singer is related to Prince William and Prince Harry. The Earls Spencer are descended from Earl Grey's daughter Lady Elizabeth...
