...The Telegraph understands that the Queen was “told” about the name after the baby was born last Friday, rather than her permission being sought in advance. It suggests that if the Duke and Duchess chose the name to curry favour with the Queen and the wider Royal family, the tactic has backfired badly...
Although there is little formal protocol around choosing baby names, particularly with great-grandchildren of the monarch, royal sources suggested there was a difference between the couple choosing to name their daughter Elizabeth, in tribute to the Queen, and using her pet name, which had only been used by her parents, the Duke of Edinburgh and a handful of her closest friends and relatives.
Relations between the Sussexes and the Royal family have become strained after a series of interviews in which the couple levelled accusations of racism, neglect and bad parenting against the House of Windsor.
On a day of extraordinary claim and counterclaim, each side hardened its position rather than making any attempt to agree on a version of events...
On Monday reports in several American publications, including The New York Post, claimed that the Duke had called the Queen and “sought permission before his baby’s birth” to use the name Lilibet.
On Wednesday morning Today on Radio 4 reported that the Queen “was not asked” about using her nickname...
Then, shortly after 8 a.m. — or 1 a.m. in California, where the Sussexes live — the row escalated as Schillings, the London law firm acting on behalf of the Sussexes, issued a warning to media organizations not to repeat the BBC’s claims, which were “false and defamatory.”
Crucially, however, Buckingham Palace refused to deny the BBC’s version of events, meaning the couple’s claims of libel were ignored by the media at large...

At some point Harry has got to speak out about being exploited like this!!
WGAF.
DITTO!!
In my lifetime, I’ve never seen a more pronounced example of
a man being pu—y whipped.
She has his anatomy in the iron grip of her clutches.
Harry, you’re going down with the dingy. Have some dignity
and control your own fate for once.
He acts like he was a virgin until she came along.
You screwed up boy.
You know folks, this is why he doesn’t understand our 2nd
Amendment. He has no right to express his views even in
his marriage / his home.
Agree, the choice of name sounded more like an
attempt to suck up to the Queen..Those two are
clueless, how can they possibly think by choosing
a name that was the Queen’s nickname, that the
Queen would just ignore how much they have trashed
her family in public.
Now, wouldn’t it be nice if Megan and Harry could
just find a private island to retire to so they
would have the privacy they claimed they wanted.
Rmeinds me of an old comedian’s line: “My wife doesn’t let me go out at night unless she puts my ba**s in the freezer.”
Poor Harry can’t cross the room with leaving his on ice.
LOL Had to look that up. I’d add another F.
They should have named her Nannette.
LOL. I only read the headline. I wouldn’t give a sh!t if that entire family was on fire on my front lawn.
LOL. I will have to keep that in mind next time.
the moment I heard about it, my first reaction was, it was a malicious theft of an intimate property, especially after trashing her mother in law as racist, with her friends calling the Queen the ‘poster for white supremacy’. An intimate familiarism used by one lover to another for well over three-quarters of a century deserves respect as something personal to the Queen. Had her nickname been ‘pickles’ would that be the baby’s name?
To add to her obtuse insults towards the Crown and the British in particular, Sparkles’ new ego-laden ‘children’s’ book pictures her hubby in an American, not British, military uniform, demoted to the rank of chicken-feeder and bench-sitter.
I hear ya. There are a number of things along these lines,
and I suspect she’s administering them three at a time.
His lack of understanding may extend to the 2A, but his clear lack of understanding of the 1A is keeping his views squelched in his marriage, no doubt. Heck, Meghan Thee Bollocks may have already repealed the 1A in that nitwit cauldron of shiite they call a marriage.
Harry overheard the other day: “I’m the boss in this house, and I have my wife’s permission to say so.”

Comedian Sam Kinison on marriage...”You going out?..._ .this is so like Harry
Yup
So they chose the Queen’s nickname as their child’s name. How is this exactly “currying favor” with someone, especially the Queen? Its quite presumptuous.
Its not quite as bad as them naming their dog with the Queen’s nickname, but then again, these two idiots are capable of anything.
Thank you. That should have been a correction.
That was meant to address the First Amendment, but I’d just
been talking about the 2nd Amendment, and couldn’t help but
blurt out 2A there by mistake.
I’d care if they were on fire on my front lawn. I have a big yard! Lawn repair is expensive!
