The legitimate brother of a king was usually a prince. Sometimes, the brother of the king had some other title, such as duke. The brothers of the English King William II, for example, were Prince Henry and Duke Robert of Normandy. Eventually Duke Robert caused enough trouble that he lost that title. Illegitimate brothers sometimes had titles and sometimes not; they were almost never princes.
Edgar the Outlaw (also called Edgar the Ætheling) was the last of the Old English Royal Family and was declared King of England when he was only 14 shortly after the Battle of Hastings (when King Harold II was defeated by the Duke of Normandy). He was forced to surrender a few months later but eventually escaped and led English rebels against the Normans for over twenty years. Eventually he was exiled and went on the crusades. He died an old man and a hero in 1126.
Actually, queens did get paid. Most kings gave their queens allowances, and these were often fairly large. In addition, queens usually had their own estates, and the people who lived on the estates paid rent to the queen. An example is Emma of Normandy. When she married Ethelred the Unready, her father, who was the Duke of Normandy, gave her some property he owned in England as a wedding present. The property consisted of the cities of Exeter and Winchester.
William duke of Normandy fought Harold Godwinson in the battle of Hastings, which was fought at Senlac Hill.
