  1. No, not anymore.


  2. Our present Queen had one sister, Princess Margaret, who died in 2002.

  3. She had a sister,Margaret Rose,who died peacefully in her sleep on Saturday 9 February, 2002, in The King Edward VII Hospital, London. The Queen's younger sister died a mere month before her mother Elizabeth  the Queen Mother.

    http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/Page950.a...

    has a short biography of her life.

  4. Depends on which Queen Elizabeth you are talking about:

    Queen Elizabeth I had 2 legitimate surviving siblings: younger brother Edward - the son of Henry VIII and his 3rd wife Jane Saymour, and elder sister Mary - the daughter of Henry VIII and his first wife Catherine of Aragon.

    Queen Elizabeth I also had at least 1 illegitimate sibling, Henry FitzRoy. She may have had more, as there were rumours (never confirmed) that Henry VIII had fathered other children with other women, presumably even with Mary Boleyn (the sister of Elizabeth's mother, Anne Boleyn).

    Queen Elizabeth II (the reigning Queen) had one sister Princess Elizabeth, Countess of Snowdown. She died in 2002.

  5. Yes! Princess Margaret is her only sibling.

  6. Queen Elizabeth I had three half-siblings. Her older sister Mary  I, by King Henry VIII's first wife Catherine of Aragon. Her illegitimate older half brother by Bessie Blunt, Henry Fitzroy. And last but not least, her younger half-brother Edward VI, by Henry's third wife, Jane Seymour.

    Queen Elizabeth II has one sibling, Princess Margaret Rose.

  7. - or rather was, before she died in 2002.

  8. It all depends on which one your talking about. I know the First Queen elizabeth didnt. You should look it yp on wikipedia.

  9. If Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom (b.1926) had had a brother, she wouldn't be the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom.  She was the eldest of two sisters.  As another poster has stated, her younger sister, Princess Margaret Rose (b. 1930) died in 2002.

    English laws of primogeniture, classified as cognatic primogeniture, only allow a female to succeed to the throne if no older brothers or their descendants are alive to do so.
