She is named:

  • Elizabeth: for her great grandmother
  • Diana: for the paternal grandmother she will never know, but forever be compared to throughout her life.


Unlike previous British princesses, she cannot be displaced by any younger brothers with the new succession laws allowing equal rights to the throne. She is presently the 1st female in succession after her grandfather, father and older brother.
 
The young princess began attending Willcocks Nursery School in January 2018.
