After an historic 70 years on the throne, Britain's longest-serving monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, diedat the age of 96 on Sept. 8, 2022. Her eldest son, Charles, became the new king immediately upon her passing, and his son, Prince William, moved up next in the line of succession.
Then, in a coronation ceremony steeped in 1,000 years of tradition, King Charles III wasformally crowned on May 6, 2023 in London.
There are detailed protocols governing the line of succession and who will take over after Charles' reign. In January 2019, Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and duch*ess of Sussex, announced plans topare backtheir royal duties. However, those plans do not include an abdication, and they remain in the line of succession, as do their two children.
Here's a look at who on the royal family tree is in line for the throne, and the order of succession.
King Charles III

Succeeding Queen Elizabeth II is her eldest son, Charles, who is nowKing Charles III. In Britain's monarchy, the heir ascends to the throne immediately upon the death of their predecessor. A formal ceremony and coronation are held later.
Charles's wife Camilla now has the title of queen. In 2022, Queen Elizabeth saidit was her "sincere wish that, when that time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort" — an honor that had not always been assured. When the time came for Charles' coronation, the word "consort" was dropped and Camilla was simply referred to as queen.
