One more question . You mentioned the Hanoverian Kings . Was William IV the last English Monarch to father illegitimate offspring ? With his reputation , I was wondering if Edward VII made the list ?

tafQueen Camilla is rumored to be descended from one of Edward VII's byeblows, I think. It's pretty lucky she and Charles only got married after her childbearing years had passed -- think how inbred their children would be!
Actually there is someone out there who claims to be the child of Charles and Camilla before either was married (a hushed up teenage birth).
There is also some Australian man who claims to be Princess Margaret's child before marriage.
I would not be so bold as to say there is *no* way to find children, the products of newer shenanigans.
DNA was made great strides forward in the last decade.
It seems quite likely that a test could be proven to match to known cousins of royals and then triangulated to show that it's only possible to come from a recent Windsor

That said, the Y DNA of Louis XIII is known because 3 male descendants accepted to be tested. So you may eventually find the same for some
Windsor but not sure if it would be with a "popular" lab like we do !

I am stating that you can triangulate Autosomal DNA now, back in some cases three hundred years
As the tools get better and millions more get tested, that will probably become even more
