The future king and queen of the United Kingdom are Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales.
Prince William is the eldest son of King Charles III and the late Diana, Princess of Wales. He is first in line to the throne, and his wife, Catherine, will become queen consort when he ascends the throne.
Here's a brief overview of their lineage and future roles:
- Prince William: He is the heir apparent, meaning he is the next in line to the throne after his father, King Charles III.
- Catherine, Princess of Wales: As the wife of the heir apparent, she is known as the Princess of Wales. When Prince William becomes king, she will be known as Queen Consort.
It's important to note that the role of a Queen Consort is primarily ceremonial and symbolic. She does not hold any political power or authority.
The future king and queen are deeply involved in royal duties and charitable work, and they are popular figures in the United Kingdom and around the world.
