There seem to be quite a few people out there who believe that they are the true monarch of the United Kingdom, Australia and the other Realms, because they are descended from an alleged illegitimate first-born child of a monarch. But the rules of succession require legitimacy when it comes to the Crown, even though it is no longer required in relation to other forms of inheritance.
More interesting is the question of what happens if a monarch is later found to be illegitimate. Does it disrupt and re-set the line of succession? The video discusses how the common law and statute would resolve such an issue.
