William, was the son of Henry the Young King, himself the son of Henry II, and his wife Margaret of France daughter of King Louis VII.

William was born in 1177 and died that same year, leaving his father without an heir, his father consequently died in 1183 during a rebellion against Henry II.

What I am wondering is what consequences might there be if William did not die in 1177 and was still alive when his father rebelled? Now obviously Henry the Young might not be trying to annul his marriage to Margaret, but what else might change? Would Henry still die as he did in 1183, or would he live on succeeding his father?
