Why this option does not fit

Victorias son Oscar

Oscar is younger than Estelle and therefore follows her in the succession in 2026.

Victoria’s children come before her younger brother Carl Philip in the succession.

Victorias syster Madeleine

Madeleine is younger than both Victoria and Carl Philip. Their branches of the family come before hers in the succession.
