Find out about Lilibet’s christening. And learn which royal family members received and rejected Meghan’s and Harry’s invitations. Get all the royal details below.
King Charles, Kate Middleton, Prince William SNUB Harry’s Daughter!
As Meghan Markle and Prince Harry wrote out invitations to their daughter Princess Lilibet’s christening, they decided to keep the affair intimate. And so the Duchess and Duke of Sussex chose only certain members of the royal family to invite. For instance, King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William and Kate Middleton all received invitations. But the quartet unanimously snubbed the event, insiders told People.
However, 20 to 30 individuals did accept their invitations. And among those guests, Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland; Lilibet’s godfather, Tyler Perry, and an unnamed godmother helped to make it a special event. A spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stated, “I can confirm that Princess Lilibet Diana was christened on Friday, March 3 by the bishop in the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor.”
Harry and Meghan’s children both received titles after their grandfather Charles became monarch in the wake of Queen Elizabeth’s death. Archie, 3, became a prince while his sister became a princess under rules dating back to King George V in 1917. But beyond the significance of his children’s royal titles, Harry has insisted he wants his youngsters to enjoy relationships with the same family he slammed in his memoir.

Prince Harry Praises Family Values, Slams Royal ‘Institution’
As the Duke of Sussex has done previously, he displayed his talent for throwing shade at the royal family. “I’ve said before that I’ve wanted a family, not an institution,” Harry claimed in a snarky comment. “So of course, I would love nothing more than for our children to have relationships with members of my family,” he added. “And they do with some, which brings me great joy,” insisted Harry, without naming names.
But just last weekend, the Duke of Sussex held a pity party (thinly disguised as a virtual event for his memoir Spare). And he wailed about “feeling more and more distant” from the royal family in the UK. However, Harry skipped admitting to the fact that he and Meghan chose to move from the UK to California.
And the resulting rift keeps expanding rather than getting mended. For instance, King Charles recently evicted Harry and Meghan from their Frogmore Cottage home in Windsor, England. But in their place, disgraced Prince Andrew reportedly received an offer to move into the five-bedroom residence. However, a royal insider described the situation as a private family matter that won’t get discussed by the Palace. As a result, rumors have soared about whether or not Harry and Meghan will accept their invitation to Charles’ upcoming coronation on May 6.

Tell us what you think. Because the royal family snubbed their daughter’s christening, will Harry and Meghan in turn snub the coronation? And after you share your views, check back on our site for more royal family news.
It’s a shame to the whole world for the royal family acting the way they have been for so long. It seems to get worse as time goes on. Will it ever stop? I used to enjoy reading articles about the royal family but lately I find myself less and less interested. It’s too much drama. Every time I pick up my phone it’s something new about Harry and Meghan. I feel so sorry for them!! The world seems to be revolved around the royal family and how divided they have become. Where is Christ in all this?? He is the problem solver in all things even when it comes to royalty.
Harry needs to grow up!!
It would be nice if we could tell the truth. Meghan and Harry invited the Royals knowing they would not be able to come. With the Coronation only 2 1/2 months away, there’s a lot going into the Coronation, not having been one in over 70 yrs. Everyone of the working royals will also have a role to play during the Coronation or after. Also security would have been a nightmare with that many royals in one place. Knowing this the 2 Sussex’s went with the invitations so they could come back and say nobody came and they were they victims again. Alas the Royals were so mean to them again,
Why don’t you all leave them alone!? Let them live heritage lives! It is nobody’s business how they live their lives! They did not want to live their lives in a fishbowl. Did everyone forget that Charles’s married his long time mistress soon after Diane died? She is queen now. Harry has always had trouble with his mom’s death. What was reported when Charles openingly had an affair when Diane was alive!?
