Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have officially announced the christening of their daughter, who has been named Princess Lilibet Diana.
The ceremony took place in the United States on Friday, March 3rd, and was conducted by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, Reverend John Taylor.
The intimate event was held at the couple’s residence in Montecito, California, with approximately 20-30 guests in attendance, including Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, and godfather Tyler Perry.
The identity of Lilibet’s godmother remains undisclosed.
The christening was accompanied by a special musical performance by a 10-person gospel choir, flown in from Atlanta by Tyler Perry.
The choir delighted the guests with renditions of popular songs such as “Oh Happy Day” and “This Little Light of Mine,” which were also performed at Prince Harry and Meghan’s wedding in 2018.
The celebration continued with food, dancing, and joyful moments, including Lilibet dancing alongside her older brother, Archie III.
However, some skeptics question the authenticity of the event, pointing out the absence of photographs.
They argue that without visual evidence, it is difficult to confirm the occurrence of the christening.
These doubts lead to speculation about the motives behind this alleged power play and whether it was merely a calculated public relations move.
Critics suggest that Meghan had been planning this event for months, strategically orchestrating every detail.
The lack of photographs has fueled further skepticism.
Some individuals question the existence of Lilibet altogether, emphasizing the absence of visual proof.
However, reputable sources, such as Omid Scobie, have confirmed the date of the christening as Friday, March 3rd.
Additionally, the Daily Mail published pictures of Tyler Perry at the airport on Sunday, March 5th, lending credibility to his presence at the ceremony.
Nevertheless, doubts persist among those who argue that the blacked-out SUV captured on camera could have contained anyone and may not have been en route to Meghan’s residence.
Rumors had circulated regarding potential godparents for Lilibet, with Oprah Winfrey and Serena Williams being mentioned as possible candidates.
During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Oprah addressed these rumors, stating that she does not need to be a godmother because she already fulfills the role of a neighbor and friend.
She humorously suggested that someone younger would be better suited for the position.
According to an unnamed source from Markle News, Princess Eugenie is believed to be Lilibet’s godmother, while Prince Harry is a godparent to Eugenie’s son, August.
The source claims that Harry chose Eugenie due to their shared experiences of being overlooked within the royal family.
Allegedly, Eugenie holds a deep affection for Archie and Lilibet, often expressing admiration for them and predicting a future friendship between her son and Harry’s children.
In contrast, Archie’s godparents were Tiggy Pettifer, Harry’s former nanny, ex-Welsh Guards officer Mark Dyer, and close friend Charlie Van Straubenzee.
It is rumored that no members of the royal family accepted the role of godparent for Archie due to concerns over Harry and Meghan’s behavior.
Furthermore, it is alleged that only two individuals attended Archie’s christening, one of whom was Tiggy.
Interestingly, both Tiggy and the other godparent were reportedly unaware of why they had been chosen for the role.
The mention of Tiggy Pettifer evokes memories of Princess Diana’s suspicions during her marriage to Prince Charles.
Diana believed that Charles had engaged in an affair with Tiggy and fathered a child with her.
These allegations resurfaced during the infamous Panorama interview conducted by Martin Bashir.
It was revealed that an invoice had been falsified, claiming that Tiggy had undergone an abortion.
However, subsequent investigations found no evidence to support these claims.
