More on Charles, Prince of Wales
Description from Wikipedia:
The Prince Charles, Prince of Wales (Charles Philip Arthur George; born 14 November 1948) is the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, making him heir apparent, equally and separately, to the thrones of 16 independent states, though he is resident in and most directly involved with the United Kingdom, the oldest realm. He is also heir to the positions of Supreme Governor of the Church of England, Duke of Normandy, Lord of Mann, and Paramount Chief of Fiji, though he will not necessarily become Head of the Commonwealth. Since 1958, Charles has held the title Prince of Wales in all parts of the United Kingdom save for Scotland, where he is titled as Duke of Rothesay; he may also be referred to as the Duke of Cornwall.
Though the Prince has been well known for his charity work throughout the Commonwealth, his personal life and relationships were always a point of tabloid focus, ramping up with his marriage to Lady Diana Spencer, and dissipating with his marriage to Camilla Parker Bowles, with some of the publicly revealed indiscretions leading to calls for Charles to be overstepped in the line of succession in favour of his eldest son, William, as well as causing the relationship between Charles and the media to sour. Regardless, Charles continues to carry out a full schedule of royal duties, and is increasingly taking on more charges from his parents as official representative of the Queen and deputy for his father.
