So this isn't so much research for a specific topic as it is something I was wondering, the question generated from watching the movie "The Queen". Excuse me if I get things completely and utterly muddled up.
So in the movie, at least, the queen is the queen because she's the closest in blood to the last reigning monarch... I think?... but her husband is not the king because he married into the family... again, I think?...
Then my question was if there ever comes a point when there is a king and a queen at the same time? Or would that only occur if cousins intermarried?
Could someone (preferably but not necessarily) British please help me clear this up?
Thank you.
