When he was born he was 5th in line to the British throne but has now moved further down the line. He is the first person in the line of succession who is not a direct descendant of the Queen. He’s Queen Elizabeth’s nephew. His mother is Queen Elizabeth’s little sister.

David Albert Charles Armstrong-Jones was born on November 3, 1961, and until his father’s death in 2017, he was known as David Armstrong-Jones Viscount Linley.
