Princess Elizabeth The chances that she will one day rule England are considered so probable that 8-year-old Princess Elizabeth, daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York and grand-daughter of His Majesty King George, is already being prepared for the throne once occupied by the. two great queens, Eli zabeth and Victoria. It is now believed that His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales will never marry. There also the possibility that he may surrender his right of succession
in favour of
his brother, the Duke of-York. As the Duke has no son, Princess Elizabeth, his eldest daughter, may be considered heir apparent. At present, the little princess has no inkling of what fate may hold in store, as she plays with her younger sister, Princess Margaret Rose.
