Queen Victoria is from the House of Hanover and Prince Albert is from the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. The British royal family changed their house to Windsor during WWI because the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha sounded too German.

If you’re going by just family ancestry, Charles III is mostly German. Here’s me after wasting time on Wikipedia:
