  1. No, under the British line of succession birth order and gender matter states that "older sons (and their lines) come before younger sons (and theirs); a person's sons (and their lines), irrespective of age, all come before his or her daughters (and their lines).

    Whether Camilia gave birth (which is highly unlikely for her age) to a male or female offspring, he or she will be placed after Prince Harry of Wales in the line of succession to the British throne. If Camilia gave birth to their first child before Prince Charles was crowned King, their child will be 4th in line, and will be moved into 3rd place if Prince Charles took over the throne. However, this newborn will probably be shifted further down the line if Prince William marries and fathered his own offspring, and possibly followed by Prince Harry's offspring.


  2. Too late now, thank god.

  3. No. William,as the eldest son,is safely the heir apparent of Charles,and Harry is second in line. And as Camilla is passed the age of childbearing(and also had a HYSTERECTOMY),there is no chance that another child would join the line of succession after Harry.

  4. The first born is the first in line, then Harry, and if Charles had more children, then they would also be in line in order of their birth.  If William has a child before he ascends the throne, then that child's right to succession would push all the others back.

  5. Number 1, thank goodness this could never happen. Camilla very publicly had a hysterectomy this year.

    Number 2, no this little demon child would merely take his/her place after William and Harry but WOULD displace everyone thereafter.

  6. Can Camilla still foal?

  7. NO!  Think about it, he is Charles first son!  If they where to have a child, which is impossible, cause I'm pretty sure she's been thru menopause, but if they did, that child would be so much younger then his 20 someodd old brother.  Think about it!  And as a matter if fact, She does have a son, who I think is older then William, but no he wouldn't be in line for the throne, cause he isn't of blood.  you can only ascend to the throne if you are blood, or if you and your spouse are the king and queen and your spouse dies.

  8. No, if Charles and Camilla had children of any s*x, they would follow William and Harry in line to the throne and would knock Prince Andrew and his 2 daughters back a place or two.

  9. I'm really trying to keep my food down.Just thinking about that makes my stomach hurt.Luckily,I don't think we have to worry about them having any kids.Thank God!I mean,they have enough kids between them anyway.

  10. She recently had a historectemy, so it's not very possible, and no, I think Parliment would decide to put that child last (behind Prince Harry) if at all. Unless of course Prince Charles screams and yells about it.

  11. Hardly likely, given Carmilla's age! But if they did, William would still be next in line and I'm guessing any offspring to Camilla wouldn't have any royal title anyway. Good question though.

  12. The lady in question had a hysterectomy. Next question?

  13. Camilla is too long in the tooth to produce anything except, perhaps flatuence.

  14. impossible because Camilla had a hysterectomy this year!!

  15. I think Camilla is way too old to have children, I DON'T THINK WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT!

  16. No.  Charles heir is his eldest son, period.  Even if Camilla has a son, that child will be younger than both William and Harry and, thus, will follow them in the line of succession.  Only if William and Harry both died childless could this theoretical son of Camilla's then be king.

  17. The rules regarding Line of the Succession are pretty clear. The eldest son gets it all, in case of absense of male heirs, eldest female gets it all.

    In this particular case, no one and nothing could alter Prince William and Prince Harry's place in the line of the succession.

    Although the Duchess of Cornwall can't have more children due to her recent operation, if theoritically she did have a child, he/she would be after Prince William & his children, Prince Harry & his children.

    The child would be Prince/Princess of the United Kingdom, and would enjoy all titles and styles, appropirate for a son/daughter of Sovereign (if Prince Charles were King by the time), or son/daugter of the Prince of Wales.

    Both Prince Charles and Prince William are heir apparents, and nothing but death could strip them of the Crown, when the time comes. If William becomes King, and he doesn't have children by the time, his brother, Prince harry, would be Heir Presumpative, but not Heir Apparent, since the birth of Prince William's children would move him further down the Line of the Succession.

  18. I think their male offspring would be to ugly to be on the throne

  19. I think Camilla is too old to have kids maybe they'll adopt:

    "Now -go fetch Mum her walking stick so we may stroll beside the Thames. We must careful for roaming Bulldogs wilding beside the river."

  20. No, because they are older and were born first. Do they even call ol horseface princess?

  21. Absolutely not. The princes' places in the line of succession would not change unless either married a Catholic. However, a child of Charles & Camilla would come right after Harry. Purely academic, of course-Camilla can no longer bear children, since she had a hysterectomy.
