Friday, March 3, Lilibet, the daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle was baptized in Montecito, California. If no member of the British royal family seems to have participated, two close to the Duke of Sussex have nevertheless made the trip.
The secret was well kept. On Friday, March 3, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had their daughter Lilibet baptized in Montecito, California, as revealed by People magazine. “I can confirm that Princess Lilibet Diana was baptized on Friday, March 3, by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, the Reverend John Taylor,” said a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. A ceremony without any member of the British royal family. If Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla, Prince William and Kate Middleton have received an invitation card, they have not made the trip. The reason? A busy schedule and other commitments to honor, including for the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Prince Harry could nevertheless console himself with the presence of two other members of his family as reported by Marie-Claire. These are his aunts, the sisters of his late mother Lady Diana, namely Lady Jane Fellowes and Lady Sarah McCorquodale. Despite his exile in the United States, Prince Harry has kept very good relations with his aunts, cited several times in his memoirs. The presence of his uncle Charles Spencer has not been mentioned. Very close to his cousin, it is possible that Princess Eugenie, the daughter of Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew, who regularly visits the United States, attended the baptism. But nothing has been confirmed.
The other guests present at the baptism of Lilibet
Between 20 and 30 guests were present to celebrate the baptism of Lilibet. Doria Ragland, the mother of Meghan Markle or the angelic man of Sussex, Tyler Perry, were among the guests. The latter was chosen to be the godfather of the girl. The American actor and director, who helped the Sussexes just after the Mexgit, flew from Atlanta to attend the ceremony, accompanied by a gospel choir of ten people. Songs like Oh Happy Day or This Little Light of Mine, performed at the wedding of Meghan and Harry, were sung during the ceremony. Then it was little Archie who made the show, dancing with his little sister.

First of all Oprah needs to be quiet and sit down. She has NOTHING to do with the British family and is NOT privy to the actual arrangements other than what the liar spilt tongue Meagan has spewed to yet again pull the poor me card. Oprah, I used to admire and respect you but my dear you are being played by a very talented narcissistic. You need to open your eyes quickly b4 she brings you down and for a ride around the block you will regret. People see the type of person she is and have walked if not run as fast as they could to shed the evil that was trying to take over. Poor Harry is so fair in over his head that he has no clue that he is drowning. He was set up for the black widow to cast her web and take and control. I only hope and pray that he doesn’t totally alienate his family as he will need their assistance for him and his children to be extricated from her clutches. She is using him and now the children to bleed dry any monies, prestigious positions from them. I pray every day that the king will removed all titles and ties to the Royal Family from Harry, Meagan and the children as an all out effort to protect the monach and all those close and affiliated….
I agree that t King Charles should remove all titles and ties to the Royal family from Harry, Meghan and the children as an all out effort to protect the monarch and all those close and affiliated with them .
