Queen Elizabeth'sonly female daughter, Princess Anne, was born after Prince Charles and is now fifteenth in line to the throne.

<p style="text-align:justify"><a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/queen-elizabeth-coronation-68-years-reign"><strong>Queen Elizabeth&#39;s</strong></a><a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/queen-elizabeth-coronation-68-years-reign"> </a>only female daughter, <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/princess-anne-queens-only-daughter-controversial-life"><strong>Princess Anne</strong></a><a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/princess-anne-queens-only-daughter-controversial-life"> ,</a> was born after <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/princess-diana-princess-charles-secret-lovers-extra-wedding">Prince Charles </a>and today occupies the fifteenth position in the line of succession to the throne, even though she was the second to be born to the current regent. This means that the princess, now 70 years old, will probably never reach the position of majesty due to outdated and obsolete rules.</p>


<p style="text-align:justify">The current sequence is as follows: first, <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/prince-harry-charles-meghan-who-is-the-most-popular">Prince Charles,</a> the first son of Queen Elizabeth II. Afterwards, there is <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/prince-william-10-fun-facts">William</a>, son of Charles and Diana, followed by his own children, <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/the-nanny-of-royal-babies-charlotte-george-louis">George, Charlotte and Louis,</a> in that exact order. Next would be Harry, William&#39;s younger brother, accompanied by their children Archie and Lilibet Diana. As can be seen, so far only royal members are present who are direct relatives of Charles because he is the eldest son.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">It is from then on that the order undergoes a major change: instead of the next position being Anne, who occupies it is Andrew, her younger brother and who resigned from his duties as part of royalty after some sexual scandals. Following Andrew are his two daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie. Next are Eugenie&#39;s son August, Prince Edward, the Queen&#39;s youngest son, and their two sons, Severn and Louise.</p>


<p style="text-align:justify">Only after all these 14 people is Elizabeth&#39;s daughter found. The reason for this sequence is a law that says that the firstborn of the incumbent regent will be next in line and, if this is not possible, the throne is passed to the next son, in addition to the fact that Anne is a woman: in the past there was a protocol that when the monarch did not have a male child, the crown should go to the next male in line. This did not happen with the current Queen of the United Kingdom because she only had Princess Margaret as a sister, also a woman.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">This law was only modified in 2013 before George, Kate and William&#39;s firstborn, was born. This change favored Charlotte, who has the opportunity to one day become queen, but it did not benefit Princess Anne. At that time, then Prime Minister David Cameron spoke of the Queen&#39;s decision by saying that a younger son becomes king before an eldest daughter just because he is a man, or that the future monarch can marry someone of anyone. religion, with the exception of Catholic, makes them appear to be incompatible with the modernity that the UK has become. Unfortunately the decision was made too late for Anne.</p>
