Queen Elizabeth Supports Gender Equality

Queen Elizabeth II has confirmed a change she made in an age old royal decree.

With her grandson, William and his wife expecting a child, the Queen announced on Wednesday that if the first born was a girl, she would automatically have the title of “Princess” rather than “Lady.”

Previously, only the first born son would have had a royal title because a girl was not expected to take the throne. With this new decree, the Queen has made it clear that the heir of the throne will be the first born, regardless of their gender!

It was actually the Queen’s grandfather, King George V who decreed that the first born daughter would not be qualified for the throne. Queen Elizabeth and her sisters were titled Princess at birth since their father had no male heirs.
