Constantine III was the son of Cuilean, and succeeded his cousin, Kenneth II on the Scottish throne, in 995.

His reign only covered 3 years, to 997; he is said to have married, but details are unknown, and he does not appear to have had an heir.

On his death, in 997, a distant cousin, Kenneth III, succeeded to the throne, and there is some indication that he was murdered (as appears to have been the pattern among his predecessors), rather than dying in battle.
