...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...

You know... they’d have had to posted guards to keep me from Pippa! Of course, I’m one that has no stance to brag about when it comes to the selection of women regarding romance. I am SO thankful that is over with. Still! At the time I was smitten with Pippa. You know... I feel sorry for the poor dumb sob who succumbs to the wiles I previously mentioned. I’ve already been through that wasteland. The truth is that he will NEVER find a woman with a heart. They don’t exist.
Apart from Meagan on his own Harry’s worth abut 50 million..plus Investments etc....His daddy is still giving him his Princely allowance regardless what the media is saying. So he’s not hurting nor will he ever Megan or no Megan..
Those two are ridiculous
How can Harry be so spineless
I am waiting for the public reveal that Meghan is a tranny. That is why they are on the outs with the Royal family.
She alrwady has. Harry is a dried up corpse of a man,shes just waiting to drop his a$$ as soon as she has enough baby anchors to bleed him dry. .
“To your credit, in all likelihood he doesn’t understand the Second Amendment either.”
Don’t know much about the British royal family, but isn’t he a direct descendant of the man whom the Founding Fathers fought for the freedom to adopt the Second Amendment?
Your opinion sucks, just FYI...
DITTO! I KNEW the Queen would NOT be PLEASED! They are Totally Classless!
Harry reminds me of an old friend from school who had a very similar arc (with much less money).
He now lives in a single wide trailer in central New Mexico. Which is better than living with his ex wife in Florida.
Hope it doesn’t play out that way.
I don’t totally disagree with you. A narcissist’s MO is to make themselves look good while in actuality demeaning or making the other person look small if they don’t accept their fake gestures of honor.
She will divorce him within a couple years, and what will he do? He will be unemployable, can’t make millions (doing what?), and he won’t be welcomed back to the UK, let alone back into the arms of the Royals. But megan will sue him for his birthright inheritance, you know, to keep her and the babies living in a manner they became accustomed to.
A “man” with no prospects or family. He has no future and will never get his man parts back, if he ever had any.
Nobody does it better than the Lady Colin Campbell!
Lilibet SCANDAL grows
Well, I guess it’s back to the original choice of Latrina.
“All employees must wash their hands!”
Man, all this drama. The parents should name a child they’ve had. That’s my opinion. You shouldn’t have to ask permission from an external person. No fan of any of these characters, feels like something out of an MTV reality show, that includes the Queen.
It may be one of their Sunshine Sachs bots earning their pay. Defending those two is beyond laughable at this point. Aside from everything else, do the defenders think we didn’t watch them lie through their teeth during the Oprah interview? What person of good character would admire the behavior of these two whiny, grifting losers?
There are women out there like her, and we all are lucky to
have avoided one of them.
I see her as a powerful and manipulative woman if you let her.
It’s a lot easier for a young person to get stuck with a
woman like her. Look, it happens to women also
Women can grasp that easily. They can’t grasp that one of
their own can be guilty of it also.
I’d treat that B like yesterday’s cold poop, if it were my
decision.
Let the kids have their titles. That doesn’t mean she
can prance around all high and mighty.
Oh as a woman I’ve watched women like that operate. They are cunning beyond belief I tell you. How they live with themselves is beyond me....and even woman won’t befriend them for long.
