Royal family who is the next king

When the name was announced, BBC royal correspondent Jonny Dymond said the decision was a strong indication the couple did not want to bring him up as a formal royal. Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor - to be known as Lili - is named after the Royal Family's nickname for the Queen and is her 11th great-grandchild. She was given the middle name Diana in honour of Prince Harry's mother, who died in a car crash in when he was 12 years old.

Prince Andrew, ninth in line to the throne, was the third child of the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh - but the first to be born to a reigning monarch for years. They had two daughters - Beatrice, in , and Eugenie, in In March it was announced the duke and duchess were to separate. They divorced in The duke served for 22 years in the Royal Navy and saw active service in the Falklands War in In addition to royal engagements, he served as a special trade representative for the government until Prince Andrew stepped away from royal duties in after an interview with the BBC about his relationship with US financier Jeffrey Epstein, who killed himself while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking and conspiracy charges.

The duke was heavily criticised for his friendship with Epstein, but he said he did not witness any suspicious behaviour during visits to the US financier's home. In a statement, announcing he was stepping back from public duties for the foreseeable future, the duke said he unequivocally regretted his "ill-judged association with Jeffrey Epstein". She has no official surname, but uses the name York. The couple had been due to marry in May, but coronavirus delayed the plans.

Princess Beatrice had a baby girl, Sienna Elizabeth, in September , who becomes the 11th in line to the throne and is the Queen's 12th great-grandchild.

Like her sister Princess Beatrice, she has no official surname, but uses "York". After a brief period with the Royal Marines, the prince formed his own TV production company. He now supports the Queen in her official duties and carries out public engagements for charities. The birth of Princess Beatrice's daughter in September means he move down one place to become 14th in line to the throne. Viscount Severn is the younger child of the Earl and Countess of Wessex.

The couple decided to give their children "courtesy" titles as sons or daughters of an Earl, rather than the style prince or princess. It is thought this decision was made to avoid some of the burdens of royal titles.

Anne, Princess Royal is the Queen's second child and only daughter. When she was born she was third in line to the throne, but is now 17th. She was given the title Princess Royal in June The princess was the first royal to use the surname Mountbatten-Windsor in an official document, in the marriage register after her wedding to Capt Phillips.

She competed in equestrian events for Great Britain in the Montreal Olympics and is involved with a number of charities, including Save the Children, of which she has been president since Peter Phillips is the eldest of the Queen's grandchildren.

He married Canadian Autumn Kelly in and together they have two daughters, Savannah, born in , and Isla, born in The children of the Princess Royal do not have royal titles, as they are descended from the female line. Mark Phillips refused the offer of an earldom when he married so their children do not have courtesy titles. Peter Phillips and his wife announced they were getting divorced in February Savannah, born in , is the elder daughter of Peter and Autumn Phillips and the Queen's first great-grandchild.

Isla, born in , is the second daughter of Peter and Autumn Phillips.
