Because the royal line follows the prince of Wales dependents. If prince of wales does not have any children, then it follows the next oldest male. If no males then falls to oldest female. By design the title prince of wales always signifies the next in line. In the case of Queen Elizabeth io our current queen regent, the were no male siblings therefore when her father became king George iv then she being the oldest daughter was the next in line for the throne.
