Does a prince become a duke or earl when he marries?

Neither, once a prince he can only be king. Actually, a duke is higher in Nobility Rank than a Prince. A prince's title does not change because he marries, however, once he marries, he is usually awarded a dukedom for his parents (King/Queen). As the ruler of this dukedom, he then becomes a duke. An Earl refers to chieftains set to rule a territory in a king's stead.


Why is Prince Charles a prince and not a duke?

He is a duke, and a prince, as well as a few other things. But no royal ever goes by a name like 'Prince Duke Earl Charles". Instead, the person picks one title to be known by. Most people will choose the highest they have, and hence he's called Prince Charles. But as an opposing example, his wife, Camilla Parker Bowles, goes by the title of the Duchess of Cornwall, rather than a higher title she owns, Princess of Wales.
