Arthur's father was King Uther Pendragon and his mother was Igraine. Igraine was the queen of the Cornish king, but Uther was enamoured of her and fooled her into thinking he was her husband by the use of Merlin's magic, and she conceived Arthur.
Uther Pendragon, the King of England, was deeply in love with Igraine of Cornwall. Uther's assistant, Merlin, a magician, promised that they would be married if Uther gave Merlin a son. So, Uther and Igraine fell in love and had Arthur who was sent to live with Sir Ector for safety and because Uther was going to die.
King Uther was crazy in love with the Duke of Cornwall's wife, Igraine. He wanted her as a lover but she refused him, loyal to her husband. King Uther became depressed. Merlin promised Uther he could spend the night with her, disguised as Gorlois (the Duke). Merlin's only condition was to take their child once he was born. Uther, desperate for love with Igraine, agreed. The Duke was killed in Terabyll. And Uther & Igraine ended up together. They had their son, and gave him up to Merlin, as promised.

I think he'll die in the middle of series 5, after arthur knows about merlin's magic and gets used to it (end of series 4). He dies of a battle wound or illness.
Merlin lives backward so he knows that the deal he makes with Uther will result in a child from tricking Ingrain in thinking he is her husband and by changing Uther he can get control of the baby ( Arthur) to make sure the baby will live to his kingship.
Merlin because he was his tutor and he always got advice from him However, Merlin, in this story. does not actually die but is imprisoned by Nimue. Uther Pendragon does die, and his death means that the barons seek for a new king, which mens Uther's unknown son Arthur.
If you mean Morgana in BBC Merlin then she is his Ward. But in S3 we find out she is actually his daughter and not Gorlois'.
They met in King Uther's castle and they ended up fighting, Merlin didn't realise that Arthur was the prince.
