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:
Maternal grandfather's grandparents:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_VII: Anglicized German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_of_Hesse-Kassel: German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Duke_Konstantin_Nikolayevich_of_Russia: Russian Romanov, but he had 3 German grandparents, so his ancestry is mostly German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Alexandra_of_Saxe-Altenburg: German
Paternal grandmother's grandparents:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Alexander_of_Hesse_and_by_Rhine: German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia,_Princess_of_Battenberg: Pole of German descent
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_IV%252C_Grand_Duke_of_Hesse: German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Alice_of_the_United_Kingdom: German

Wild that they could just... Change their house like that. "Oh all that family lineage and history, no, no the name sounds quite too much like those jerries - the peasants won't like it much - what now? yes yes, Windsor we are, always have been, chip cheerio - get in the trench my good chap, and fight my former brethren, I mean those awful germans."
