Why is Beatrice in line for the throne?

Why is Priness Beatrice, and not Edward, 5th in line to the throne? If the rule is male primogeniture, then it should surely be Edward. Does the male primogeniture rule only apply to the immediate heirs? | Notes and Queries | guardian.co.uk Why is Priness Beatrice, and not Edward, 5th in line to the throne? If the rule is male primogeniture, then it should surely be Edward.

• Evidently, male primogeniture no longer applies. In actual fact, this has happened before in the case of the accession of Elizabeth I, not for any reasons of the discontinuation of a sexist system, but because the only other eligible male heir would have been a Catholic.

• The male primogeniture rule is (was) only used to choose among siblings – younger brothers taking precedence over their elder sisters. It does not advance males any further – ahead of nieces or any other females. We’ve been promised that it will be done away with soon anyway, just as soon as they can get round to drafting a new law. It seems to be felt that such a new law, however, has to be passed in all the Queen’s dominions simultaneously – so there’s a bit of a challenge to get that organised.

• You are in error in supposing that the UK has “male” primogeniture. In fact it has “male preference” cognatic primogeniture which works as follows: A female may succeed if she has no living brothers and no deceased brothers who left surviving legitimate descendants (and accordingly Princess Beatrice is the heir of her father, Prince Andrew). A person is always immediately followed in the succession by his or her own legitimate descendants (his or her line) except for any legitimate descendants who already appear higher in the line of succession. A person’s sons and their lines all come before a person’s daughters and their lines. Older sons and their lines come before younger sons and their lines (and accordingly Prince Andrew and his line comes before Prince Edward and his line). Older daughters and their lines come before younger daughters and their lines (and accordingly any children of Princess Beatrice will come before Princess Eugenie and any children she may have). Of course, this is likely to change in the future in favour of “equal” or “absolute” primogeniture, whereby the eldest succeeds regardless of his or her sex.

Why was there an empty seat in front of the king

The new monarch and Queen Consort sat on the far right-hand side of the second row while directly in front of them was an empty seat. The reason for the empty space is a matter of protocol: to ensure that the monarch has a clear and unobstructed view of the service.

Why doesn t Princess Anne shake hands with the public?

Her reasoning sticks with royal tradition. – If you’re ever lucky enough to find yourself at a royal walkabout (an event where the royal family goes around and interacts the public), don’t expect a handshake from Princess Anne. It’s not that she doesn’t want to greet people; it’s just that she likes to stick with tradition.

These are the times the royal family broke their own protocol, Princess Anne, Queen Elizabeth II’s 69-year-old daughter, admits that walkabouts have changed a lot since the Queen first started them in the ’70s. In the HBO documentary, Queen of the World, Anne says that one of the things that have changed over the years is that members of the royal family will now shake people’s hands.

“We never shook hands,” Princess Anne says in the documentary. “The theory was that you couldn’t shake hands with everybody, so don’t start. So I kind of stick with that, but I noticed others don’t.” Another aspect of walkabouts that Princess Anne doesn’t appreciate is technology.

• Phones are bad enough, but the iPads—you can’t even see their heads,” she explained in the documentary.
• No idea who you’re talking to.
• I either don’t bother or just say, ‘Look, if you want to askI suggest you put that down.'” Royal Princess Anne will happily talk to you, but make sure to keep your phone in your pocket.

If you’re looking for a handshake and a picture, you might want to seek out Harry or Meghan. Next, check out these facts you didn’t know about the British royal family,

Did Princess Anne have a fling?

Love triangle – Thanks to its sexy deception in drama The Crown, Anne’s fling with Andrew Parker-Bowles is her most famous. The Princess had a fling with Andrew in 1970, a couple of years before he married Camilla in 1973, though the relationship was never serious.

1. Many believe this was because Andrew was Catholic, so an unlikely candidate for marriage in the Royal Family.
2. The two remain friends to this day and Andrew is even the godfather of Anne’s daughter, Zara Tindall.
3. When Camilla later married Charles, the Queen Consort and Anne became sister-in-laws.
