Usually, the wife of the Prince of Wales is titled the Princess of Wales.  Prince Charles's first wife, [[Princess Diana]], held the title from her marriage, and continued to hold it after her divorce until her death. When Prince Charles married for a second time, his new wife Camilla deliberately did not assume the title Princess of Wales, but chose instead [[Duchess of Cornwall]], as [[Duke of Cornwall]] is one of Prince Charles's lesser titles.  Female heirs to the throne traditionally have not taken the title Princess of Wales.
