Willem Frederik Karel, was the second son of the later King Willem I and Wilhelmina of Prussia.
Prince Frederick was born in Berlin. At that time his parents had been expelled from the Netherlands by the Patriots. He grew up at the court of his grandfather Frederick William II of Prussia.
Prince Frederick married his cousin Princess Louise of Prussia in 1825. So, like his father and grandfather, he married a Prussian princess.
They had four children.
In 1826, King William I appointed his second son Commissioner General of the Ministry of War. After his brother William II became king in 1840, Frederik stopped his military and political work. In 1849, his nephew King William III appointed him Inspector General of the Armed Forces. He stayed for almost 20 years.
Frederik died in September 1881. He is buried in the "Nieuwe Kerk" in Delft, Netherlands.
