The illegitimate child is a kind of folk title, which is legally called illegitimate child.
Children born out of wedlock are only children born when both men and women do not have legal marriage relationship. However, due to natural blood relationship, whether men and women marry or not does not affect the legal relationship between children born out of wedlock and their parents. Therefore, the Civil Code stipulates that children born out of wedlock have the same rights as children born in wedlock, and no one can harm or discriminate against them. In other words, since legitimate children have the right of inheritance, illegitimate children also have the right of inheritance.
Therefore, illegitimate children have the right of inheritance, and illegitimate children can inherit property.
