Prince Charming, or simply The Prince, is a supporting character in Disney's 1950 animated film, Cinderella. As the only son and heir to an unnamed kingdom, he initially avoids his royal duties, preferring a bachelor's life. This prompts his father, the King, to host a royal ball to find him a suitable bride. Though reluctant, Charming falls in love with a mysterious woman who flees, leaving behind a glass slipper. Determined to find her, he vows to marry only the maiden whose foot fits the slipper, leading to a kingdom-wide search.

== Appearance == Prince Charming has a muscular build with broad shoulders, fair skin, dark brown hair, and brown eyes. His signature outfit consists of a cream royal jacket, red pants with a gold stripe, a gold belt, black boots, and opera gloves.

In Cinderella II: Dreams Come True, his royal jacket is recolored to dark blue and his pants to white, while the rest of his outfit remains the same.

Cinderella III: A Twist in Time introduces two additional outfits. During his anniversary celebration, he wears a brown formal vest, a white long-sleeved shirt with a white tie, olive pants, and brown boots. Later, he wears a white collared shirt, red pants with a gold stripe, a gold belt, and black dress shoes, along with a dagger at his waist. For his remarriage, he returns to a variation of his royal attire, with white pants matching his jacket, a brown sword sheath, and white boots. Notably, he doesn't wear opera gloves with these later outfits.

== Personality == The original film provides limited screen time for Charming but hints at his personality through dialogue and subtle moments. The King's frustration suggests Charming has distanced himself from his royal responsibilities, preferring leisure. At the ball, his disinterest in finding a bride is evident as he yawns dramatically, much to his father's annoyance.

Cinderella III: A Twist in Time further develops his character. He is portrayed as humorous, energetic, and romantic, desiring a love like his parents'. His devotion to Cinderella is strong enough to break Lady Tremaine's spell and compel him to rescue her.

Charming is depicted as elegant yet adventurous, enjoying sword fights and horseback riding. He displays a rebellious streak, often defying his father's wishes for Cinderella's sake. Despite his royal status, he is shown to be accepting of others regardless of their background, valuing personality and character. This is demonstrated by his genuine interest in Cinderella, who initially paid him no attention, and his support of her egalitarian ideals in Dreams Come True.
