Apart from gender equality and the removal on dynasts losing the right of succession by marrying Catholics, there have been no official discussions of what the law will do .. one can only assume that the RMA in its present form will be superceded.Marlene Eilers Koenighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14984860671065161997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762674434623075554.post-30532077135724277762012-12-09T19:05:53.124-05:002012-12-09T19:05:53.124-05:00Marlene,

So, for example, will Princess Anne then succeed Prince Harry (or, after its birth, Baby Cambridge)? Or do you believe that any changes will be enacted from that birth and forward?
