Queen Shocked as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Name Daughter Lilibet

In a surprising turn of events, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have named their daughter Lilibet, after seeking the Queen's permission to do so.

The Queen had initially assumed they would choose the name Elizabeth, as it has been a popular choice among her great-grandchildren.

However, she was taken aback when they announced the name Lilibet.

This news has caused quite a stir, especially considering that Lilibet was the Queen's childhood nickname and one that she had hoped would be retired.

According to interior designer Nikki Haslam, who has royal connections, Harry called the Queen and asked if they could name their daughter after her.

The Queen, thinking they would choose Elizabeth, graciously gave her permission.

However, they did not reveal the actual name at the time, leading to some confusion and speculation.

It seems that they were not entirely forthcoming with the truth, which has only added to the controversy surrounding this decision.

Furthermore, it has been revealed that the meeting between Prince Charles and Lilibet was an emotional one.

This is not surprising, considering that no one had yet seen the newborn baby.

Although Lilibet will mostly be referred to as Lily, her official name still carries a significant meaning for the royal family.

In addition to the naming controversy, it has come to light that Harry and Meghan spent the Jubilee weekend in Windsor, away from the rest of the royal family.

An article in The Telegraph by Camilla Tomtomy sheds light on their decision to isolate themselves during this important celebration.

While other members of the royal family gathered at St. James's Palace and Buckingham Palace to watch the flypast and participate in various events, Harry and Meghan chose to retreat to Windsor.

It seems that their absence did not go unnoticed, as the rest of the young royals were expected to meet with them later but decided against it.

Instead, they enjoyed a lively and boisterous lunch together, catching up and having fun without Harry and Meghan's presence.

Moreover, it has been revealed that the Queen did meet Lilibet shortly after her birth.

However, she declined the couple's request to have an official photograph taken, citing a bloodshot eye as the reason.

Aides also expressed concerns about the potential repercussions of publicizing a private meeting, considering the couple's multi-million dollar contract with Netflix.

Despite this, Harry expressed his desire to have an official photograph of the two Lilibets together in the future.

Adding to the growing list of controversies, there seems to be a reluctance among the royals to participate in Lilibet's birthday party.

While everyone was reportedly invited, only the Tindalls and the Phillips attended.

The absence of other family members, especially those with children around the same age, speaks volumes about the strained relationships within the royal family.

In conclusion, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's decision to name their daughter Lilibet has caused quite a stir within the royal family.

The Queen was initially surprised by their choice, as she had expected them to choose Elizabeth.

The couple's actions during the Jubilee weekend, including their isolation from the rest of the family, have only added fuel to the fire.

It remains to be seen how these controversies will continue to unfold in the coming weeks.
