Best Answer

HM Queen Elizabeth II was the rightful heir to succeed her father, King George VI in 1952.

Even if her uncle, Edward VIII had not abdicated, and George had not become king, Elizabeth would still have been heir, because Edward did not have any children by his marriage to Mrs. Simpson, and he outlived George.

Why did elizabeth kill Mary queen of Scots?

Queens don"t get their hands dirty- even Bloody Mary got other people to do her blood-letting. Elizabeth signed the death warrant. the Army or constabulary took matters into their own hands, acting on Royal warrant. It is an oversimplification to assume Elizabeth ( Axed) her rival queen, literaly. By the way, contrary to two Hollywood films, the two monarchs, Elizabeth and Mary ( of Scots) never met physically.
