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.
The royal drama continues. Prince Charles, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s relationship is still at odds despite the Prince of Wales’ recent invitation for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to stay with him when they’re in the United Kingdom.
A source told The Mirror on January 18, 2022, that Charles invited Harry and Meghan to stay with him and his wife, Camilla Parker Bowles, in the days before Christmas as a way for him to see his grandchildren.
Charles has never met Harry and Meghan’s newborn daughter Lilibet Diana (named after his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, and his late ex-wife, Princess Diana) since she was born in June 2021, and the last time he’s seen the Sussexes’ son, Archie Harrison, was when his grandson was just six months old.
Despite “good natured and enjoyable” video calls between Charles, Harry and Meghan in the past few months, in the end, the Duke of Sussex told his father he would be “unable to return home” because it would be “too great a personal risk” for him and his family to come back to the U.K.
