George
1948- . Prince of the United Kingdom, heir to
the British throne, and Prince of Wales since
1958 (invested 1969). He is the first-born
child of Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of
Edinburgh. He studied at Trinity College,
Cambridge, 1967-70, before serving in the
Royal Air Force and Royal Navy. He is the
first royal heir since 1659 to have an
English wife, Lady Diana Spencer, who sadly
died on 31st August 1997, daughter of
the 8th Earl Spencer. They have two sons and
heirs, William (1982-) and Henry (1984-).
Prince Charles's concern for social and
environmental issues has led to many
self-help projects for the young and
underprivileged, and he is a leading critic
of unsympathetic features of contemporary
architecture.
