He reacted explosively when he heard Cinderella escaped, as he accused the Duke of treason and tried to kill him with his sword, and only becoming placated when he learned his son would marry the girl who fits the Glass Slipper. His temper was shown several times to be next-to-unreasonable in his mission to get his son to marry, and he threatened the Grand Duke a few times to "encourage" him to follow his orders. It is revealed that he loved his wife very much, which probably led to his romantic side. His Queen, who passed away before the events in Cinderella, is never seen. At the same time, the King also wants his son to be genuinely happy with whomever he marries and has children with. As the King explains to the Grand Duke, he misses the sound of kids running around the castle and, overall, he really just wants to be a grandfather (while sleeping later on in the film, he's shown dreaming of spending time with a grandson and a granddaughter). However, from what the King explains to the Grand Duke, it's for much more than just wanting an heir (which, in itself, is fairly valid for wanting his son to have children). As the king himself was getting older and will obviously eventually pass away, he really wants to see his son get married and have kids before that time comes. When the Prince was young, he and his father were very close, but they ultimately grew apart as the Prince got older. The King has a passionate temper but is also a romantic who strongly believes in love at first sight.
