'''Prince Richard, Duke of Cleveland''' (Richard William Charles Alexander; born 5 August 1998) is a {{wp|British}} actor, activist, and a member of the {{wp|British royal family}}. He is the second eldest child of [[William VI of the United Kingdom|King William VI]] and {{wp|American}} supermodel, {{wp|Christy Turlington}}, and is also currently the first in the line of succession to the  {{wp|British}} throne as the heir presumptive to his sister, [[Alexandra I of the United Kingdom|Queen Alexandra]].
 
While known for his debut role in the {{wp|Netflix}} period drama, {{wp|Bridgerton|''Bridgerton''}} as Benedict Bridgerton, Richard, whom as an activist himself is also closely associated with his mother, {{wp|Christy Turlington|Queen Christy}}, with whom he has since been actively involved on a number of causes, including humanitarianism and physical health, while also being actively involved aswell in a number of other causes he has since personally championed, which includes climate change, drug abuse, and perhaps most notably enough, anti-corruption, which has particularly garnered him both praise and criticism from the public.
 
As the heir presumptive to his sister, [[Alexandra I of the United Kingdom|Queen Alexandra]], Richard is expected to succeed the former to the throne in the case of the Queen's abdication or death in the absence of a natural heir to the throne. In recent years, with the possibility of his [[Alexandra I of the United Kingdom|sister]] marrying the {{wp|Dutch}} fashion model, {{wp|Rianne Van Rompaey}} being ever more likely, he is thus expected to succeed his [[Alexandra I of the United Kingdom|sister]] to the {{wp|British}} throne himself, thereby possibly becoming the next future {{wp|British}} monarch to do so after {{wp|William IV|King William IV}}, whom succeeded his own older brother, {{wp|George IV|King George IV}}.
