When Queen Elizabeth II dies, the question of who will become the next king of the United Kingdom will be answered. Prince Charles, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth, is currently the heir to the throne and will become king if his mother dies.
Prince Charles was born in 1948 and is the longest-serving heir apparent in British history. He is the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. He is also the oldest living grandchild of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.
Prince Charles is the first in line to the throne and will become king when his mother abdicates, retires or dies. However, it is possible that he may abdicate in favor of his eldest son, Prince William.
If Prince Charles does become king, he will be the oldest person to ascend the throne since William IV in 1830. He will also be the first British monarch to have a grandchild while on the throne, as Prince William and Kate Middleton have three children.
The question of who will become king when Queen Elizabeth dies is an important one. It is likely that Prince Charles will become king, but it is possible that he may abdicate in favor of his son. In either case, the British monarchy will continue to have a strong presence in the country and the world.
