Meghan Markle gives birth to boy Prince Sussex – Prince Harry Announces as The English Game of Thrones Plot Thickens

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced the birth of a baby boy – but what does that mean for the royal family tree?

Harry – once third in line to the throne – and Meghan revealed their happy news to the Royal family in October at the wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank at Windsor Castle, where the duke and duchess were also married earlier in the year.

Most family members moved down a place in the succession ladder in April last year, following the birth of Prince Louis, whose arrival made history when he slotted in as fifth in line to the throne.
