They may be young now, but one day these toddlers and young children will reign on the thrones of their countries. So who are the youngest heirs in Europe?
Hereditary Prince Jacques of Monaco:
Although born after his sister, Princess Gabriella, who is two minutes older, Hereditary Prince Jacques will one day be the Sovereign Prince of Monaco as Monaco abides by male-preference primogeniture.

Princess Estelle of Sweden:
Princess Estelle, who just turned 11 in February, is the daughter and elder child of Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden. Her grandfather is King Carl XVI Gustaf.
In 1980, Sweden changed their laws of succession to absolute primogeniture, allowing Estelle’s mother to assume the role of Crown Princess from her younger brother, Prince Carl Philip.
