I believe that in the scenario that you've presented, with the death of the Duke of Edinburgh, the title would revert to the Crown as the heir to the title became King and *all* his titles would revert to the Crown at that time. It would then be at Charles' discretion to create a new Duke of Edinburgh or not.
As dukedoms are a peerage of the UK and subject to approval by Parliament, I seriously doubt that it would be approved that a son from a second marriage outside of the UK itself would past muster.
So, most likely in this scenario, the Duke of Edinburgh title would lie dormant until a future monarch with parliaments assent deemed a new creation of that title.
