WALES, UNITED KINGDOM: King Charles currently reigns as the monarch of Britain and is the eldest child of Queen Elizabeth II 5 feet 10 inches (177 cm or 1.77 m) per Metro.

He assumed the throne after the passing of his mother on September 8, 2022, making him the oldest heir to the British throne in history.

From his previous marriage to Diana, Princess of Wales, who tragically died in a car accident a year after their divorce in 1997, Charles has two adult sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.

In 2005, he married Camilla, who holds the title of Duchess of Cornwall and is now recognized as the Queen Consort.

How tall was Princess Diana?

King Charles reportedly shared the same height as his initial spouse, Princess Diana. The Society Pages suggests deliberate measures were taken to create an illusion that Charles was taller than Diana, aligning with the societal expectation that husbands should be taller than their wives.

From Occidental College in Los Angeles, Professor Lisa Wade observed, "This effort to make Charles appear taller is a social commitment to the idea that men are taller and women shorter."

"When our own bodies, and our chosen mates, don’t follow this rule, sometimes we’ll go to great lengths to preserve the illusion," Wade continued.

She further concluded, "When Charles and Diana were posed together formally, however, they were typically arranged so as to suggest that he was significantly taller than her, or at least to disguise the fact that he was not."

How tall is Queen Camilla?

Queen Camilla Rosemary Shand (nee Parker Bowles), is a member of the British royal family. She is known for her relationship with and eventual marriage to Charles, King of Wales. She stands at a height of 5 feet 8 inches (172 cm or 1.72 m) as per Metro.

Camilla's relationship with Prince Charles was a subject of public interest and controversy for many years before their marriage.

She had been a close friend of Charles for decades, and their romantic involvement began while both were still married to their respective spouses. After their divorces, they eventually married.

As the Duchess of Cornwall, Camilla is involved in various charitable and public activities. She supports causes related to literacy, domestic abuse awareness, and the welfare of animals, among others.

Camilla's official title, following her marriage to Charles, was "Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall."

Charles ascended to the throne as king on September 8, 2022, following the passing of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II.

Camilla assumed the role of Queen Consort. Their formal coronation ceremony occurred at Westminster Abbey on May 6, 2023.

How tall is Prince William?

Prince William, whose full name is William Arthur Philip Louis, is a member of the British royal family and is the elder son of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, former Princess of Wales.

He stands at a height of 6 feet 3 inches (190 cm or 1.9 m), the Prince of Wales, 37, is one of the tallest members of the Royal Family.

Who is taller out of Princess Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle?
