I was today years old when I realised Princess Anne should be Queen

[monkeysox]

She's the eldest child. The law has changed now.
Even Zara Philips is behind her little brother in line to the throne. Wtf.

No, Charles is the eldest

I didn’t realise she was the eldest either!!

She isn’t the eldest child. Charles is. 🙄

No, she isn't. Charles is the oldest of the Queen's children.

Princess Anne was born in 1950. She's two years younger than King Charles.

She’s not the eldest child.

She’s the second child. King Charles is the oldest.

I don’t think she’s the eldest is she? She was born after Charles.

Charles in older than Anne. Born in 1948. Anne in 1950.

And Peter is older than Zara. Are you having a joke thread because it isn’t especially funny.

I should go back to bed if I were you op

Charles is older than Anne and Peter Phillips is older than Zara.

Keep up there.

Also Zara is younger than Peter

She’s younger than Charles!

I do agree she would have been a fabulous Queen though.

What nonsense! Charles is 73, Anne is 72. Peter Phillips is the queens eldest grandchild & therefore is not Zara Tindel's younger brother. I mean, educate yourself before making such silly comments.

None of that is correct but you're mainly being unreasonable for the use of 'today years old'

HTH

Are we rewriting history now? In order to get annoyed about something? 🤔

I was today years old YABU
when I realised Princess Anne should be Queen YABU and should have a quick Google first.

For goodness sake. She isn’t the oldest so was never in line for the throne. Also,
the rules were changed before George was born so even if he’d been a girl, he would have been the heir.

Even if this were the case, the law was put into place before William’s children were born and only applies from that point forward

She "should" be after Lilibet in the Line of sucession. But the removal of male superiority only applies to Georges generation onwards (hence Viscount Severn above his elder sister).

Yes ‘today years old’ thing is 🤷‍♀️

Iabu.
I was looking at lady Louise being below her younger brother. Surely that should be changed.
It's Sunday and early sorry

Before posting something like that, at least just use Google first!

Thanks for explaining @PuttingDownRoots
So if Anne had been older than Charles (which I realise she isn't) he would have been first in line anyway?
