Lilibet Lily Diana Mountbatten-Windsor’s Birth Sparks Controversy and Speculation

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have recently announced the arrival of their second child, Lilibet Lily Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.

The couple shared the news in a statement, revealing that their daughter was born on Friday at 11.40am.

Lilibet was delivered at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, a facility with a rich history dating back to 1888 when it was established by a group of visionary women who recognized the need for a hospital in the growing community.

Interestingly, Meghan and Harry also unveiled a photo of Lilibet taken during her time at the hospital.

The image shows the newborn resting on top of a woman, but curiously, the child's mother remains unseen.

This has raised eyebrows and led to speculation about why Meghan would not be included in the picture.

Some argue that Meghan's desire for attention and unwillingness to share the spotlight may be behind this decision.

A source close to a midwife working at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital shed some light on the situation.

According to this insider, the reason the woman's face was cropped out of the photo is because she is not Meghan.

In fact, she is the surrogate mother who carried and gave birth to Lilibet.

The doctor agreed to allow the biological mother to have the first skin-to-skin contact with the baby before Meghan took over.

This explains why Lilibet remained in the hospital for a few days, as Meghan spent time bonding with both the surrogate mother and her newborn daughter.

It is worth noting that this photo represents Meghan and Harry's unique perspective on the birth of their child.

It is their way of telling their story, their truth, and their interpretation of this significant event.

However, skepticism remains among some individuals, particularly on social media platforms like Reddit.

One Reddit user expressed doubt regarding the authenticity of the photo, claiming that nothing the couple says or does can be trusted.

They speculate that Meghan might even be the photographer, with Harry being the person the baby is lying on.

Others argue that the baby's appearance suggests she is not a newborn but rather a few hours old.

While the setting appears to be a hospital bed, the identity of the faceless person holding Lilibet remains unknown.

Another Reddit user went even further, stating their disbelief in Meghan giving birth to either of her children.

They question the existence of Lilibet, pointing out inconsistencies between the infant in the photo and the description of her as a brown-haired baby.

They demand to see a family photo of all four family members facing the camera and in color before they will believe any images presented as Archie or Lilibet.

Adding fuel to the fire, it has been reported that Queen Elizabeth II excluded Lilibet from her will, while Archie remained included.

The Queen reportedly transferred the jewels she had initially intended for Meghan and Lilibet to Catherine and Charlotte, estimating their value at around £110 million.

This decision has raised questions about the reasons behind the exclusion and has led to various theories, including the idea that the Queen may have been displeased with Lilibet's name.
