Debretts are swift off the mark with this one. They have already updated this entry & Rupert is now his grandfather's heir.

Patricia,  

I just saw the same thing and was  wondering if maybe they had seen Richard's post here first.  

In any event, at least they have a correct record.

The entry for the 2nd son should read:

2. Frederick (Freddie) Laurie BUCKMASTER b 2016 reg Q3 Gloucestershire

The heir presumptive to the current Lord Forbes, the Master of Forbes, is also his grandson.

[Richard R]

The Master of Forbes is the only son of Lord Forbes' only son and as such cannot be displaced and is the heir apparent

Richard, thank you for that clarification.
