Sempereademlady,
Any adopted children of Prince William would be styled as the children of a Duke (i.e. Lord/Lady). Their was new legislation enacted for this similar matter... adopted children would have equal rights, aside from inheritance of the titles.

Interesting... I would hope that if the laws were to be amended to rearrange succession, the people who re-write the laws would make it to where everyone were created EQUAL. In doing so, I would say that if it is made to be EQUAL primogeniture, they would make Anne as the to-be-Queen (aka Princess of Wales?), otherwise they would be doing nothing more than snubbing women, especially Prince Anne. <snipped>. Even if the succession laws were to change to cognatic succession, Anne will never be heir apparent to anyone unless her brother and two eldest nephews predeceased the current queen. She is the second child in her family so she was never higher than 2nd in line to the throne (3rd @ birth after her elder brother). Oh, I see... Sorry. For some reason I thought my cousin Anne was the first born! LOL!  I can't believe I did that! Sorry, again. Yes, you're right, Anne will still come after Charles, Will, and Harry. |

This has been so interesting! Thank you all! Vittoria, have you seen the movie "Bertie and Elizabeth"? It's a favorite of mine. It's not a documentary as such, and decidedly "Pro George VI" (is that the right number?) so I don't know exactly how accurate it is. That said, it certainly convinces me that one doesn't neccessarily have to have expected to rule one's entire life to be able to do it effectively. No, he didn't want to, but he and his wife certainly rose to the occasion, unlike his brother.

Yes, I know she was his biological daughter but she was still adopted by her father.
I wonder why renounced her rights to the throne to Ranier though. Was adopting her just a stop-gap until she produced an heir?

Was adopting her just a stop-gap until she produced an heir? She was adopted and legitimated as a political act as Prince Louis' heir to the Monegasque throne was the German Duke of Urach, a member of a morganatic branch of the Wurttemberg Royal Family. In the aftermath of World War I, France would not accept a German on the throne of Monaco, and the only other option if Louis died heirless was for Monaco to become part of France. |
