The son of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, born on Monday and whose British will discover the face Wednesday, takes the seventh place in the order of succession to the British throne.
All heirs behind the baby are demoted from one rank in a hierarchy that includes the four children of Queen Elizabeth II and their offspring.
Here is the order of succession to the British throne:
1. Prince Charles, Prince of Wales
Born in 1948, eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II
2. Prince William, Duke of Cambridge
Born in 1982, eldest son of Prince Charles
3. Prince George of Cambridge
Born in 2013, eldest son of Prince William
4. Princess Charlotte of Cambridge
Born in 2015, youngest daughter of Prince William
5. Prince Louis of Cambridge
Born in 2018, second son of Prince William
6. Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex
Born in 1984, youngest son of Prince Charles
7. Prince Harry's son
Born May 6, 2019
8. Prince Andrew, Duke of York
Born in 1960, second son of Queen Elizabeth II
9. Princess Beatrice of York
Born in 1988, eldest daughter of Prince Andrew
10. Princess Eugenie of York
Born in 1990, youngest daughter of Prince Andrew
11. Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex
Born in 1964, third son of Queen Elizabeth II
12. James, Viscount Severn
Born in 2007, son of Prince Edward
13. Lady Louise Windsor
Born in 2003, daughter of Prince Edward
14. Princess Anne, Princess Royal
Born in 1950, daughter of Queen Elizabeth II
15. Peter Phillips
Born in 1977, son of Princess Anne
16. Savannah Phillips
Born in 2010, eldest daughter of Peter Phillips
17. Elizabeth Phillips
Born in 2012, youngest daughter of Peter Phillips
18. Zara Tindall
Born in 1981, daughter of Princess Anne
19. Mia Tindall
Born in 2014, eldest daughter of Zara Tindall
20. Lena Tindall
Born in 2018, youngest daughter of Zara Tindall
The descendants of Elizabeth II are followed by those of her late sister Margaret.
The official website of the British monarchy lists only the first 17 people in the line of succession. But in theory, it is much longer. Some count 2,000 heirs enviable, others 5,700.
A change in inheritance laws came into effect in 2015, ending the right of male primogeniture that had prevailed until then: male children born after October 28, 2011 will no longer be able to claim the throne against their elder sisters. It is the oldest child of the sovereign who inherits the throne, whatever his sex.
People married to Catholics will no longer be excluded from the estate.
