Any British royals are additional to the 24 as extras. It made sense for a King, as sovereign of the Order, to appoint his Consort as an extra and to accompany him. As for other British royals it seems appointments have been made, and others not, for reasons best known to the Sovereign. Consider Princess Margaret.
And foreign royals are appointed as extras, as Stranger Knights and Ladies. I see this group as a unique "club" of monarchs.
