Gospel Choir Reveals Surprising Details in Lilibet’s Christening, Exposing Meghan’s Bossy Attitude
New information has emerged about Princess Lilibet's christening, shedding light on the event that took place recently.
Hollywood A-lister Tyler Perry reportedly made arrangements for a 10-person gospel choir to fly in from Atlanta to perform at the ceremony, after the royal family declined to attend.
People magazine reported that the entertainers were flown in on a private jet to Montecito, where they sang Oh Happy Days and This Little Light of Mine in front of a small audience of approximately 30 attendees, including the Duchess' mother, Doria Ragland.
Although the christening of Princess Lilibet was confirmed by a spokesperson for the couple, the identity of her godmother remains unknown.
The ceremony took place on Friday, March 3, officiated by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, Reverend John Taylor.
Notably, King Charles, the Queen Consort, and the Prince and Princess of Wales all declined the formal invitations to attend the event.
The gospel choir that performed at Lilibet's christening is the same one that was hired for the wedding of the Sussexes, known as the Kingdom Choir.
However, their involvement in the baptism was minimal.
They were only invited to wait for two hours, take some photos, and then leave.
Karen Gibson, the leader of the choir, confirmed this information.
The Kingdom Choir gained recognition after signing with Sony Music UK and performing at the closing ceremony of the Invictus Games in Sydney last October, where they had the opportunity to briefly chat with Harry and Meghan.
In the same month, they released their debut album, Stand By Me, which featured the title track and 14 other songs, including an original composition called Chases.
Karen Gibson, MBE, who sang Stand By Me with the Kingdom Choir at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's wedding in 2018, revealed that it was a challenge to get the couple's approval for the song.
The choir had suggested 12 different versions of Stand By Me, but none were approved.
Eventually, they performed one version in front of Harry and Meghan at Kensington Palace, which finally received their seal of approval.
It is worth noting that contrary to previous claims made by the press, it was Prince Charles who invited the Kingdom Choir to perform at the wedding, not Meghan.
In response to recent comments made about the christening, the Queen released a carefully worded statement expressing her sadness, but also acknowledging that memories and perspectives can differ.
The statement implies that there may be differing recollections of the events surrounding the christening.
The details surrounding Princess Lilibet's christening continue to captivate the public's attention, providing a glimpse into the dynamics within the royal family and the involvement of influential figures from the entertainment industry.
As more information comes to light, it remains to be seen how these revelations will impact the perception of the Sussexes and their relationship with the rest of the royal family.
