Lilibet christened and will be using the title Princess

[miri1985]

What happened to just call me Harry? Why would they want their children to be burdened with titles?

“When reached by PEOPLE, a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said: "I can confirm that Princess Lilibet Diana was christened on Friday, March 3 by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor."

No wonder, Harry's had a look at his families history and gone WTAF - I'm out

Grasping a title in order to grift from Netflix =/= "out" though.

Good for them.

Oh sorry never mind my last post. I see that other posters have said something. I didn't realise I was a page or 2 too late.

H&M's attention seeking aside, how is a non blood relation higher in the succession line that a real princess? Isn't no.10 B's step daughter?

The line of Succession
SOVEREIGN

1. The Prince of Wales
2. Prince George of Wales
3. Princess Charlotte of Wales
4. Prince Louis of Wales
5. The Duke of Sussex
6. Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor
7. Miss Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor
8. The Duke of York
9. Princess Beatrice, Mrs. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi

10. Miss Sienna Mapelli Mozzi 11. Princess Eugenie, Mrs. Jack Brooksbank

@Eyerollcentral , I'm sure both you and your friend had lovely names and I find it really sad when people change them to more English sound names because others are too lazy to learn how to pronounce them properly!
Anyway don't want to derail further 👍

Can't wait for the Southpark episode...

Worldwide Hypocrisy Tour commencing

I don't pull up the poster on Chuck either. Or those who used to say Liz. I already explained why.

I have no idea. I just think it is odd that people say Catherine changed her name, I've seen her criticised for it as being a diva ordering people to call her Catherine. I mean it's her name, I would imagine she has been called both at various times by various people but nothing odd about it and even more strange to insist Meghan's name is Meghan when her given name is Rachel. I mean if she can choose to use her middle name why can't Catherine use her real name? Well I know why, someone wants to make a thing about her "changing" her name. With Meghan I don't know if it was a mistake or people misnaming her for a reason, if it's the second it isn't nice is it.

They can both choose how they wish to be known, I've never used my full first name, when I hit my teens I refused to answer to the shortening of my name that my family all used (although my mother used it till her dying day) and chose to use another common shortening, so think it would be like if my name is Elizabeth, family called me Betty and I chose to be Liz. Nothing odd about it.

That yellow dress was so perfect on her, really accentuated her figure and was modern but elegant. I do agree re the bra issue too, I mean it can be hard to get a properly fitting one on a budget but M hasn’t got that problem. I dislike being able to see underwear lines through clothes and I do feel like I’ve seen her bra through clothes almost as often as I have seen my own.

No - Sienna is Beatrice's bio daughter.

She also has a step-son 'Wolfie' who is about four years old.

Not step daughter. Sienna is Beatrice's daughter.

She has a stepson-I think called Wolfie-not in the line of succession but a Prince Wolfie would be fabulous

Haha @wordler great minds...

So the full titles will be:

Prince Archie of Sussex
Princess Lilibet of Sussex

I assume for school they'll stick with Archie Mountbatton Windsor or maybe change to Archie Sussex like the traditional royals do??

Missing the point there Jennifer. It isn’t about literal entitlement, it’s about the way they styled their departure. But as lots have noted, this is to do with the merchandise and monetising being royal. I wonder if they have copyrighted their children’s names yet.

Well I'm sure if he'd known at 16 that he would one day be a senior member of the royal family he'd have made a different decision or then again maybe not as he had precious little family life so the sister he was close to was probably someone he'd care about.

Of course as an adult he served honourably in the Royal Navy so maybe that was his get out of jail card.

Let it drop. There's only you thinking you're coming out of this well.

@MrsMitford3 @wordler Thank you for clarifying.

Some posters (we all know which ones)

Harry could piss on you and you'd still be like some sad fan

Fuck me

But but but... you don't christen anyone by their title or surname, just their Christian names. I don't get it.

Surely it's just Lidl Bonus Bargains and Aldi Aisle Crap, not Prince Aldi and Princess Lidl?

I just read that their bishop used to be Nixon’s chief of staff 😀

Wow reading all of this vitriol, one can understand why harry and Meghan left the country. They know none of you and are making bank either way.

Marvellous! Well done on the research, another way to criticise them, bingo!

one who was to become a senior member of the Royal family

PP was sixteen at the time. How did he know he was going to become a senior member of the RF? Was he actually psychic? Was he supposed to know about the Holocaust five years ahead of time, too? Perhaps he could have warned Lindbergh and Henry Ford, saved them some awkwardness about their associations with the Nazis.

I think it was their spokesman who used her title, presumably on the instructions of H&M.

Thanks rousette 😀
