The Royal Family

The United Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy. This means it has a king or a queen as its Head of State. However, the monarch has very little power and can only reign with the support of Parliament. Members of the Royal Family are known both by the name of the Royal House, and by a surname.

Queen Elizabeth II was born in 1926. She was a great-great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria (1819–1901). In 1947 Queen Elizabeth II was married to Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten. Queen Elizabeth’s husband was the son of Prince Andrew of Greece and one of Queen Victoria’s great-great-grandsons.

Queen Elizabeth II (1926–2022) and Prince Philip (1921–2021), the Duke of Edinburgh, had four children. Queen Elizabeth II and her children are known as the House and Family of Windsor. Charles, the Prince of Wales, now King Charles III, was the eldest son in the Royal Family. In 1981 he married Lady Diana Spencer. They had two sons, Prince William and Prince Henry. The Queen’s grandsons have the surname of Mountbatten-Windsor, though the Royal Family remains officially the House of Windsor.

In 2011 Queen Elizabeth’s elder grandson, Prince William, married Miss Catherine Middleton. Now they have the title Prince and Princess of Wales.
