Charles, Prince of Wales (Charles Philip Arthur George; born 14 November 1948) is the heir apparent to the British throne as the eldest son of Elizabeth II. He has been Duke of Cornwall and Duke of Rothesay since 1952, and he is the oldest and longest-serving heir apparent in British history.
He is also the longest-serving Prince of Wales, having held that title since 1958. Charles was born at Buckingham Palace as the first grandchild of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. He was educated at Cheam and Gordonstoun schools, which his father, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, had attended as a child. Charles also spent a year at the Timbertop campus of Geelong Grammar School in Victoria, Australia.
Almost 40 years later, Princess Diana's 1981 engagement gift is all set to be auctioned off. According to latest reports, Diana's 1981 Ford Escort Ghia Saloon car was gifted to her by Prince Charles back in May 1981 as an engagement gift and two months before their wedding at the iconic St Paul's Cathedral in London.
Now, this stunning silver car is all set to be auctioned off later this month. Princess Diana used the car until 1982 and then sold it to a private owner.
For the last 20 years or so, the car has been stored in a perfect condition by a "great admirer" of Diana, who has largely kept the vehicle safely stowed away in a garage.
