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.
Following the death of his beloved mother last month, King Charles III credited his wife Camilla, Queen Consort, as being his "rock" at this difficult time.
Now royal commentator Duncan Larcombe has provided insight into why Camilla is "just the right person" to support our new monarch, exclusively telling OK!: "Quite clearly, from the word go when they first met in 1970, there was chemistry between them.
Camilla is a mumsy, horsey, country type, who is delightfully posh but doesn’t take herself too seriously. "She’s just the right person for him, and I think if they’d married in the 1970s, they would have been together all that time." In his first address to the nation following the Queen's passing, King Charles acknowledged the support the former Duchess of Cornwall has shown him over the past two decades, saying, "I count on the loving help of my darling wife, Camilla.
In recognition of her own loyal public service since our marriage 17 years ago, she becomes my Queen Consort. He added: "I know she will bring to the demands of her new role the steadfast devotion to duty on which I have come to rely so much." The King's heartfelt comments and high praise of Camilla come as no surprise, given that she has stood by him through thick and thin as his loving companion and confidante.
