Why Lilibet hasn’t met the royals

OSTN Staff

There has been much speculation over whether Lilibet Diana’s christening would be a royal affair – in the Church of England – or held in Meghan and Harry’s base in California. Now, a rep for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex has weighed in, saying “nothing has been finalised” about the location. “Plans for the baby’s christening have not been finalised,” a representative for the couple said, according to E! News.“And as such, any assumptions about what will or will not take place are mere speculation.”Meghan and Harry’s firstborn Archie Harrison was christened in England at Windsor Chapel in 2019, by Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, attended by Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince Charles and other members of the royals.Of course, that was held before the couple’s dramatic “Megxit” from the royal family in 2020 – or their bombshell tell-all with Oprah Winfrey. It came as the royals are bracing themselves for another scandal involving Prince Harry — as he personally researches his mother Princess Diana’s life for a new book.Experts also fear he may use the memoir to name the “royal racist”, with Harry pocketing a £15 million ($A28 million) advance from publishers.Royal family insiders believe Harry will be under extreme pressure to identify the family member he alleges made racist remarks about the colour of baby son Archie’s skin.Speaking to Winfrey, Meghan revealed that a member of the royals had “concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born”.Though she did not reveal the person’s identity. “I think that would be very damaging to them,” the Duchess of Sussex told Winfrey.Privately, the couple said it was not the Queen or the late Prince Philip who made the racist comment.
