Frederick, Prince of Wales (Frederick Louis; 1 February 1707 – 20 March 1751) is a member of the House of Hanover and therefore of the Hanoverian and later British Royal Family, the eldest son of George II and father of George III, as well as the great-grandfather of Queen Victoria.

Under the Act of Settlement passed by the English Parliament in 1701, Frederick was in the direct line of succession to the British throne.

He moves to Great Britain following the accession of his father, and is created Prince of Wales.

He predeceases his father George II, however, and upon the latter's death on 25 October 1760, the throne passes to Prince Frederick's eldest son, George, Prince of Wales, who reigns as King George III from 1760 until 1820.

Prince Frederick has a hostile relationship with his parents.
