Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed a baby boy on Monday.
The baby, who is yet to be named, is the Queen’s eighth great-grandchild — and Prince Charles’ fourth grandchild.

The newborn is seventh in line to the throne — behind Prince Charles, Prince William, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis, and Prince Harry.
The child’s rank could fall further if the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have more children. Prince Harry himself has fallen three spots since the birth of his nephews and niece.
Most recently, those on the succession ladder fell a spot after the April 2018 birth of Prince Louis.

The line to the throne was also changed up in recent years, following changes to The Succession to the Crown Act in 2013. The act applies to babies born after October 2011.
Prior to those changes, male additions to the Royal Family outranked their female counterparts — even if they were younger.
Beyond the more immediate Royal Family, the line for the throne is quite extensive. It’s followed by the Queen’s second son, Prince Andrew, and his daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. It then moves on to the Queen’s third son, Prince Edward and his children. Here is a more detailed list.
