The British line of succession is determined by descent, sex, legitimacy, and religion. Common law states that a sovereign's children inherit the throne. There are however other rules that determine who inherits the crown. Let's take a closer look at some of them. Hopefully, by the end of this article, you will have a better idea of how the line of succession works in the UK.
Prince George
The third in line for the throne is the young prince. He follows his father, William and mother, Catherine. His parents have worked hard to keep their children grounded, living a more normal life than previous royals. Until his nephews and nieces are born, Prince George is third in line to the throne. This could change if there are changes in succession laws which make it harder for younger royals children to assume the role.
Prince Louis
The Royal Line is a complicated process in Britain. The tradition was that the eldest male would be the first to inherit the throne. The 2013 Succession to the Crown Act has made this a reality. The current king's oldest son is the eldest of the male heirs. Prince Louis is now fifth on the line to throne behind Prince Harry. His older sister Princess Charlotte has not been replaced by the new baby boy.
Prince William
Prince William is third in line for the throne. He is also the oldest son of Prince Charles and Duchess of Cambridge. Born July 22, 2013, he was the second in line for the throne. He is expected to become the head of state some day. His mother, Princess Diana, died when she was just 36 years old, and her surviving children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, are in line to follow in her footsteps.
Princess Beatrice
Beatrice was brought up in London's Portland Hospital. After graduating from St George's School, Ascot, she continued her education at Goldsmiths College. After graduation, she worked briefly at Sony Pictures and the Foreign Office. After graduating, she became Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Afiniti. This global financial services company offers a variety of financial services. Outward Bound, Teenage Cancer Trust, and Teenage Cancer Trust also employ her privately. Edoardo Mapelli Moszzi is her husband and they will be having a daughter in September 2021.
Prince Edward
The United Kingdom's line of succession is complicated and lengthy, but is fairly easy to understand. The line of succession simply means that the oldest children are entitled to the throne. So the heir obvious is the next in the line. Prince Edward will be the sixth in line. Prince Edward is the son of King George VI and Princess Elizabeth. The throne is shared between the siblings. The prince will become King when he turns 61.
Princess Anne
During her mother's reign, Princess Anne held on to her place second in the British line of succession behind Prince Charles. However, last year her younger brother, Prince Andrew overtook her and she has continued to fall down the succession list. This is partly because Prince Andrew, a House of Lords member, resigned last year.
Queen Elizabeth II
George V, the first king in the British monarchy, is the only surviving child. Queen Elizabeth II and King George VI are his only two children. The next in line to the throne is usually the eldest child, regardless of sex. Prior to 2013, the line for succession was dominated by sons, but a change in Perth, Australia changed that. Unless there is no living son, daughters now hold the throne.
Prince Charles
Prince George of Cambridge will become the third child to take the throne, following his grandfather and father. William and Catherine have three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Prince George, his grandfather and father, will be his eldest son and second in line for the throne. His siblings will be third. Prince George, Prince Charles’ younger son, was born 1984. If his father becomes a monarch, he would be in line for the throne.
Prince George, Prince William's son
The British lineage is not straightforward. Prior to 2013, males had no precedence over younger sisters. Now, a male born after 20 October 2011 is third in line. Prince George's sister Princess Charlotte will continue to be fourth in line. So, if Prince Louis succeeds his mother's father, Princess Charlotte will become the next in line. The future British monarchy's future is not in the control of Prince William's next son.

If you were nominated by an HWOF member, or if there are significant contributions made to the entertainment, film, radio, theatre, and music industries, you may be eligible for a "star" award. A committee reviews the nominations and determines whether they should be approved. If they decide to approve, they write a letter to the address of the applicant explaining their decision. A second letter confirms acceptance if the nominee accepts the nomination. The Hollywood Chamber of commerce will then pay $25. This money is forwarded to the Department of Cultural Affairs of Los Angeles.
The department issues a check payable the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which then sends the check directly to the Hollywood Walk of Fame Foundation. The foundation pays artists or organizations whose applications were accepted. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce then pays half of the fee ($12.50). The City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs receives the remaining half.
Once the artist receives his/her star he/she will be eligible to be inducted into the HWOF. To be included in the HWOF, your balance must be paid to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce.
