The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s daughter, Princess Lilibet Diana, who was born to Prince Harry and Meghan in June 2021, has been christened at the couple’s California home.
The announcement is the first time she has been publicly called a princess and confirms that Harry and Meghan will use the royal titles for their children. The couple’s spokesperson said members of the Royal Family were invited to the christening.
Although she was not a princess at birth, because she was not a granddaughter of the monarch, she gained the right to that title when King Charles acceded to the throne.
Buckingham Palace has said the royal website – which currently lists her and brother Archie with the titles miss and master – will “be updated in due course” to reflect the title.
Lilibet is the second child of Harry and Meghan, who relocated to the US after stepping down as working royals in 2020. Their son Archie was born in May 2019.
