He is certainly related to Elizabeth II. The route of succession to the present Queen has at least 2 major fractures, the Stuart accession in 1603 & the Hannoverian Succession post Queen Anne. Why it does not revert to the Stuarts, the 'Old Pretender', I do not know. Then, we come to the abdication in 1936. If Edward VIII remains, then the current line does not happen. Elizabeth II is the 15th generation descedant of Margaret Tudor, sister of Henry VIII. Which makes Henry VIII the (14) great uncle of Elizabeth II. The reason it does not revert to James Stuart "The Old Pretender" is his father, James II became a Catholic & was ousted by Protestants who feared he & his son, by his second wife, would try to force the country back to Catholicism. Which is why after Ann's death in 1714, (James II daughter by his first wife), the throne went to Sophia of Hanover's, (James II 1st cousin), Protestant son George who became George 1 by the Act of Settlement 1701. As for Edward VIII, true had he married someone else and had children, Elizabeth II would be merely the cousin to the monarch.
