FYI, Prince Charles' father was Greek Orthodox and both his grandparents were baptized Greek Orthodox. In fact, his grandmother, Princess Alice of Battenberg (aka, Princess Andrew), was a convert into Orthodoxy and became an Orthodox nun after her husband's death and was a big influence on Prince Charles during his early years. She founded the Christian Sisterhood of Martha and Mary, on the Greek island of Tinos, and her remains have been placed in the Convent of Saint Mary Magdalene in Gethsemane.


There are various speculations that the Prince is strongly interested in converting to Orthodoxy but hasn't yet because of the constitutional conditions of his title.
