Tyler Perry Reveals Heartwarming Connection to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Children
In a recent episode of Let's Talk Off-Camera with Kelly Ripper podcast, Tyler Perry opened up about his close bond with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, as well as their two young children, 4-year-old Archie and 2-year-old Lilibet.
The conversation took an endearing turn when Ripper asked Perry about his role as the godfather to Princess Lilibet, leading to a heartfelt revelation.
Affectionately referring to Lilibet as Little Lily, Perry couldn't contain his admiration for her.
He described her as incredibly adorable, marveling at her beauty.
“Oh, she's so beautiful, she's just so beautiful,” he gushed.
Perry went on to praise Archie and Lilibet's looks, emphasizing their undeniable beauty.
However, his effusive praise left some listeners questioning the extent of his involvement with the royal children.
Perry's surprise at being asked to be Lily's godfather was also a topic of discussion during the podcast.
He shared that Meghan and Prince Harry approached him about the role during a phone call, catching him off guard initially.
After taking a moment to process the request, Perry graciously accepted the honor.
However, he later realized that there might be certain expectations related to royal traditions and ceremonies.
Recalling his response, Perry said, “I called them back, and I had to go hang on a minute.
Does this mean that we have to go over to the UK and do all of that, you know, church thing with the royal family and figure out all of that because I don't want to do that.
Maybe we can do a little private ceremony here in the United States and let that be that.
And if you have to do it there, then that's okay.”
Interestingly, Perry's revelation of becoming Lily's godfather sparked speculation and raised eyebrows.
Some wondered if Meghan Markle had discovered something concerning Perry that he would prefer to keep hidden.
Allegations even surfaced suggesting that Nan might be using this information as leverage against him during the podcast.
Perry also touched on his role as a supportive friend to Meghan Markle during her transition into the public eye.
He emphasized her sense of isolation and the overwhelming nature of her new reality.
Perry aimed to provide a safe haven for Meghan Markle, acknowledging her incredible journey into a world where every aspect of her life became a spectacle.
Addressing rumors that Oprah Winfrey introduced them, Perry revealed that he reached out to Meghan with a heartfelt note without Oprah's knowledge.
As they once shared a publicist, this act of kindness was his way of offering support to someone navigating the challenges of fame and royal association.
