The late Queen was a pioneer in quietly modernising the Royal Family throughout her monumental 70-year reign. While there are countless examples to choose from, one of the most significant affected the placement of her great-grandchildren in the Line of Succession, regardless of their gender.
Royals such as Princess Anne and Lady Louise Windsor were not impacted by the change as it did not come into affect until 2013.The first member of the family to be affected by the historic move was Princess Charlotte when her younger brother, Prince Louis, was born in 2018. The reason behind this is down to a significant alteration the late Queen introduced which changes the rules of primogeniture and who can overtake who in the Line of Succession.The adaptation to the rule means that Charlotte was not leapfrogged by Louis.
She sits at third in line to the throne and, unlike her great aunt Princess Anne, Charlotte will not be pushed any further back in the line of succession until Prince George has children of his own. When Princess Anne was born in 1950 she was third in line to the throne, however by 1964 she had been pushed back two places by her younger brothers, Princes Andrew and Edward.
As of 2023, she sits in 17th place. The reason for this is a historic rule known as primogeniture that unseats any female heir if a younger brother is born.The rules of primogeniture were altered in the Succession to the Crown Act 2013, meaning that any younger brother born after this date can no longer leapfrog an older sister.The Royal Family website explains: "The Succession to the Crown Act (2013) amended the provisions of the Bill of Rights and the Act of Settlement to end the system of male primogeniture, under which a younger son can

A video of Prince Louis snubbing his heir-to-the-throne father Prince William has resurfaced, as the youngster readies himself for a second year at Berkshire's Lambrook School. All three of William, 41, and Kate Middleton's children - Princess Charlotte and Princes George and Louis - attend the school, after the Royals relocated to Windsor's Adelaide Cottage last year, but when they first walked through the grounds, it appears as though little Louis, 5, didn't need a helping hand offered by his dad. Louis was spotted clutching his mum Kate's, 41, hand as William walked beside them on their way to meeting headmaster Jonathan Perry.

Welcoming a new born baby into the world is a huge change for any family and it can sometimes be hard for older siblings to accept that the new arrival takes up more of their mum and dad's attention.
Prince William was once “propositioned” by a 96 year old care home resident - and Kate Middleton had the perfect response. The Prince of Wales, 41, paid a visit to the Queens Bay Lodge Care Home, Edinburgh, in May 2021 - when Covid-19 social distancing rules were still in force.There he met 96-year-old Betty Magee, who was clearly a fan of the future king. William later recalled the encounter to wife Kate, 41, as well as actresses Emma Stone and Emma Thompson during a video call.
King Charles has showered his grandchildren with special gifts over the years, and with no expenses spared, the youngsters have certainly received some rather lavish birthday and Christmas present over the years.The King has five grandchildren - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis from Prince William, and Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet from Prince Harry. He is also the step-grandfather of Queen Camilla's five grandchildren -Lola and Freddie Parker-Bowles and Eliza, Gus and Louis Lopes.
Sun that Louis “has the perks and privileges of his position — plus the luxuries — without the fuss and responsibility of ever having to be King himself.”Louis, 5, is currently fourth in the line of succession to the British throne, after the Duke of Cambridge, 41, and his two elder children, George, 10, and Charlotte, 8.The tyke lives with his family at their primary abode, Adelaide Cottage in Windsor.

The Princess of Wales has expertly navigated life as a member of the Royal Family and has found many worthwhile causes to support - from children's mental health to early years development. While this is the case, there is one crucial part of Royal life that she has previously admitted to struggling with.

the OG “spare” is actually Prince Andrew.A new A&E documentary, “Secrets of Prince Andrew,” has revealed why the scandal-ridden Duke of York has always been considered the late Queen Elizabeth’s “favorite” child as well as the original surplus prince.“We know from Prince Harry that the ‘spare’ creates an idea of resentment and jealousy,” British biographer Andrew Lownie said.“[Prince] Andrew was an accident waiting to happen for years.”The Post has reached out to reps at Buckingham Palace for comment.Andrew, 63, was always rumored to be the long-reigning monarch’s most loved and most treasured son, despite not being the firstborn.As the third child of the queen — who died in September 2022 at the age of 96 — and her late husband, Prince Philip, he was second in line to the throne at the time of his birth in 1960.“His birth was celebrated as he was the next male heir, despite [his sister Princess] Anne being [born] second,” journalist Dickie Arbiter said in the doc. “If [King] Charles died, then Andrew would be the one directly in line to succeed him.”He added that the queen had already settled into her life as a mother by the time Andrew came along, as she had given birth to Anne in 1950 and Charles just two years earlier.“Courtiers” author Valentine Low interjected and pointed out how she was an “indulgent” mother to Andrew, and with him, she could “sit back a bit” to enjoy motherhood.
Members of the Royal Family must abide by a series of strict rules and codes of conduct at all times, whether that is adhering to specific protocol, attending events or arriving in a particular order.

One of the key skills that will be drummed into young royals from the earliest opportunity will be the importance of having good manners which will best prepare them for a lifetime of public service. In doing this, it would seem Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have been taught a sweet habit that their late grandmother Diana, Princess of Wales, encouraged her own children to do.
When the Princess of Wales appears at her various engagements, she often speaks about her three young children and what their favourite hobbies are. It is clear from her public appearances that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis take after the Princess in many ways - from their love of sports to enjoying cooking.
