'''Charles III''' (Charles Philip Arthur George; born 14 November 1948) is [[King of the United Kingdom]] and the 14 other [[Commonwealth realm]]s since 8 September 2022.{{efn|name=realms|In addition to the United Kingdom, theThe 14 other realms are [[Monarchy of Antigua and Barbuda|Antigua and Barbuda]], [[Monarchy of Australia|Australia]], [[Monarchy of the Bahamas|The Bahamas]], [[Monarchy of Belize|Belize]], [[Monarchy of Canada|Canada]], [[Monarchy of Grenada|Grenada]], [[Monarchy of Jamaica|Jamaica]], {{nowrap|[[Monarchy of New Zealand|New Zealand]]}}, [[Monarchy of Papua New Guinea|Papua New Guinea]], [[Monarchy of Saint Kitts and Nevis|Saint Kitts and Nevis]], [[Monarchy of Saint Lucia|Saint Lucia]], [[Monarchy of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines|Saint Vincent and the Grenadines]], the [[Monarchy of Solomon Islands|Solomon Islands]], and [[Monarchy of Tuvalu|Tuvalu]].}}
 
Charles was born in [[Buckingham Palace]] during the reign of his maternal grandfather, [[King George VI]], and became [[heir apparent]] when his mother, [[Queen Elizabeth II]], acceded to the throne in 1952. He was created [[Prince of Wales]] in 1958 and [[Investiture of Charles, Prince of Wales|his investiture]] was held in 1969. He was educated at [[Cheam School]] and [[Gordonstoun]], and later spent six months at the [[Timbertop]] campus of [[Geelong Grammar School]] in Victoria, Australia. After completing a history degree from the [[University of Cambridge]], Charles served in the [[Royal Air Force]] and the [[Royal Navy]] from 1971 to 1976. In 1981, [[Wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer|he married]] [[Lady Diana Spencer]]. They had two sons, [[William, Prince of Wales|William]] and [[Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex|Harry]]. Charles and Diana divorced in 1996, after they had each engaged in well-publicised extramarital affairs. [[Death of Diana, Princess of Wales|Diana died as a result of injuries sustained in a car crash]] the following year. In 2005, [[Wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles|Charles married]] his long-term partner, [[Camilla Parker Bowles]].
 
As heir apparent, Charles undertook official duties and engagements on behalf of his mother and represented the United Kingdom on visits abroad. He founded [[theThe Prince's Trust]]{{Efn|The Princes Trust, was renamed to The Kings Trust following his accession to the throne}} in 1976, sponsored [[the Prince's Charities]], and became patron or president of more than 800 other charities and organisations. He advocated for the conservation of historic buildings and the importance of traditional architecture in society. In that vein, he generated the experimental new town of [[Poundbury]]. An environmentalist, Charles supported [[organic farming]] and action to prevent [[climate change]] during his time as the manager of the [[Duchy of Cornwall]] estates, [[List of awards received by Charles III|earning him awards and recognition]] as well as criticism; he is also a prominent critic of the adoption of [[genetically modified food]], while his support for [[alternative medicine]] has been criticised. He has [[Bibliography of Charles III|authored or co-authored 17 books]].
 
Charles became king upon [[Death and state funeral of Elizabeth II|his mother's death]] in 2022. At the age of 73, he was the oldest person to accede to the British throne, after having been the longest-serving heir apparent and Prince of Wales in British history. Significant events in his reign have included [[Coronation of Charles III and Camilla|his coronation]] in 2023 and his cancer diagnosis the following year, the latter of which temporarily suspended planned public engagements.{{toc limit|4}}

In April 2008, ''The Times'' published a letter from [[Edzard Ernst]], Professorprofessor of [[Complementarycomplementary Medicinemedicine]] at the [[University of Exeter]], which asked the FIH to recall two guides promoting alternative medicine. That year, Ernst published a book with [[Simon Singh]] called ''[[Trick or Treatment: Alternative Medicine on Trial]]'' and mockingly dedicated to "HRH the Prince of Wales". The last chapter is highly critical of Charles's advocacy of complementary and alternative treatments.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Singh |first1=Simon |title=Trick or Treatment: Alternative Medicine on Trial |title-link=Trick or Treatment? |last2=Ernst |first2=Edzard |date=2008 |publisher=[[Bantam Press]] |author-link=Simon Singh |author-link2=Edzard Ernst}}</ref>
