In a surprising turn of events, it has been reported that the late queen was deeply saddened to discover that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had chosen to name their baby after her childhood nickname.
According to TV personality and socialite Lady Colin Campbell, the queen was shocked when she learned that her great-granddaughter would not be named Elizabeth, as she had expected.
Lady Colin Campbell made these claims during a panel discussion on GB News.
She alleged that Harry and Meghan had deceived the queen when they asked for permission to use her name for their daughter.
The socialite stated, “I think they had to have lied because my information was that Harry asked her if he could name his daughter after her, and she thought the name was going to be Elizabeth.”
The revelation that the baby girl was instead named Lilibet came as a great shock to the late queen.
Not only did Harry and Meghan go behind the queen’s back to choose a different name, but they also registered the birth in such a way that changing the name became impossible.
This information, shared by Lady Colin Campbell, highlights the extent of the deception that took place.
GB News host Patrick Christie questioned whether the chosen name was a deliberate attempt to cause controversy or if it posed any problems.
Commentator Phil Dampier, also part of the panel, expressed sadness at the heartache the late queen experienced during the final months of her life.
He revealed that she became so angry over the situation that her aides claimed they had never seen her angrier.
These revelations align with the claims made in the new book, “Charles III, New King You Caught,” by Robert Hardman.
The book provides an inside look at the royal family and alleges that the queen was furious when she learned about the use of her childhood nickname, Lilibet, for Meghan and Harry’s daughter.
The late queen’s anger stemmed from the fact that Lilibet, unlike her elder brother, was born in America and was given a middle name in honor of her late grandmother, Princess Diana.
Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born on June 4, 2021, in Santa Barbara, California.
Meghan and Harry had previously stated that they would not have chosen the name if the late queen had not been supportive.
The name Lilibet holds a special place in the history of the British royal family.
