 The British royal family comprises Queen Elizabeth II and
her close relations. There is no strict legal or formal
definition of who is or is not a member of the British royal
family.
 A list of the current royal family will usually include the
monarch, the children and male-line grandchildren of the
monarch and previous monarchs, the children of the eldest
son of the Prince of Wales, and all their current or widowed
spouses.
 Since 1917, when King George V changed the name of the
royal house from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, members of the
royal family belong, either by birth or by marriage, to
the House of Windsor. Senior titled members of the royal
family do not usually use a surname, although since
1960 Mountbatten-Windsor, incorporating Prince Philip's
adopted surname of Mountbatten, has been prescribed as a
surname for Elizabeth II's direct descendants who do not
have royal styles and titles, and it has sometimes been used
when required for those who do have such titles.
 Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and
Gotha (Francis Albert Augustus
Charles Emmanuel, 26 August 1819
– 14 December 1861) was the
husband of Queen Victoria.He was
born in the Saxon duchy to a
family connected to many of
Europe's ruling monarchs. At the
age of 20, he married his first
cousin, Queen Victoria; they had
nine children.In 1857, Albert was
given the formal title of Prince
Consort.
 Albert died at the relatively
young age of 42. Victoria was so
devastated at the loss of her
husband that she entered into a
deep state of mourning and wore
black for the rest of her life. On
her death in 1901, their eldest
son succeeded as Edward VII, the
first British monarch of the House
of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, named
after the ducal house to which
Albert belonged.
