Queen Elizabeth II was born Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor on April 21, 1926. She is the eldest child of King George VI and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, and was third in the line of succession when she was born. At that time, King George V was the reigning British monarch and his first-born son, Edward, was first in line. After George V died in 1936, Edward became King Edward VIII, but reigned for less than a year as he abdicated the throne to his brother, King George VI. This made Elizabeth second in line to the throne. Following her father’s death, she became Queen Elizabeth II.
