It’s almost impossible to keep track of all the royal family members (at least beyond the Cambridge-Sussex clan). But as it turns out, Prince William and Prince Harry aren’t the only ones who called Queen Elizabeth “grandma” before she passed away at age 96. In fact, Her Majesty had a total of eight grandchildren in the royal family tree.
Read on for a complete list of Queen Elizabeth’s grandchildren, from oldest to youngest.
Maybe you’re unfamiliar with the queen’s eldest grandchild. Son to parents Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips, Peter is not one for the spotlight. However, he is married (to wife Autumn) and has two young children, Savannah and Isla.
Introducing Peter’s younger sister, Zara. She got her love of horses from her G-Ma. The mother of three not only has some serious equestrian skills, but she’s also an artist and previously put one of her paintings up for auction to benefit the charity Equestrian Relief.
First in line to the throne, Prince William is probably one of the most well-known of Her Majesty's grandchildren. Son to King Charles and the late Princess Diana, the full-time royal and his wife, Kate Middleton, are parents to Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.
Prince William shares parents Princess Di and the new king with his younger brother, Harry. In 2020, the Duke of Sussex stepped down as a senior member of the royal family to live a financially-independent life with his wife, Meghan Markle, and the couple’s two children, Archie and baby Lili.
Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s eldest daughter may be a non-working royal, however, she is the patron of a number of charities. The Princess of York, who is ninth in line to the throne and fifth eldest grandchild of Queen Elizabeth, is married to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
Just like her older sister, Princess Eugenie is a non-working member of the royal fam. Instead, she has built herself quite a career in art and philanthropy. Having been married for five years now to Jack Brooksbank, the princess welcomed her son, August, in 2021.
Lady Louise Windsor is the oldest daughter of Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, and Prince Edward, who is the youngest child of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. As the queen’s youngest granddaughter, Louise is 16th in line to the British throne. Back in 2016, Louise’s mother revealed that it took some time for her daughter to realize that not everyone has a queen for a grandmother. We wish.
And last but not least is James, Earl of Wessex. Her Majesty’s youngest grandchild is the only son of Edward and Sophie. He joins his family for some appearances here and there. But he hasn't become one of the more prominent royals just yet.
