Prince Charles, Britain’s longest ever king-in-waiting Prince Charles, the heir to the British throne, became King Charles III with Queen Elizabeth's passing. Charles, 73, has waited decades to ascend to the British throne. He is the eldest of Queen Elizabeth's four children and has been first in line to the throne all his life. The Prince of Wales' highly publicised marriage to Lady Diana, the couple's messy divorce and her tragic death has largely defined his public persona, but in recent years he has tried to restore his image.
