Big news for the royal family! Princess Lilibet Diana, the daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, has been christened at their California home. This is the first time that Lilibet has been publicly called a princess, and it confirms that Harry and Meghan will use royal titles for their children.
Although Lilibet wasn’t born a princess, she gained the right to the title when her grandfather, King Charles, became king. Buckingham Palace has said that the royal website will be updated soon to reflect the title.
Lilibet is Harry and Meghan’s second child, and the couple invited members of the Royal Family to the christening. However, it seems that none of them were in attendance. Harry and Meghan have also said that they want their children to decide for themselves whether or not to use their titles when they are older.
The christening was presided over by the Right Reverend John Harvey Taylor, the Bishop of Los Angeles. He used to work as a journalist and even worked in the office of former US president Richard Nixon before being ordained as a bishop.
There’s also speculation that Harry and Meghan might travel to the UK for the King and Queen Consort’s coronation. It’s a big event, and Buckingham Palace has declined to comment on the guest list.
It’s exciting to see what’s next for the royal family and little Princess Lilibet Diana!
