Private christening for Prince Archie
THE youngest member of Britain’s royal family, Archie Mountbatten-windsor, was christened yesterday in a private family ceremony at Windsor Castle.
The 2-month-old son of Prince Harry and his American wife Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, was baptised in a private chapel at the castle by Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, of the Church of England.
The proud parents revealed baby Archie in christening photographs on their official Instagram page, shortly after yesterday’s top secret ceremony.
The couple shared the snap with their 9 million followers, posting they felt “so happy to share the joy of this day with members of the public”, and thanked supporters for their kindness.
Meghan, 37, and Harry, 34, posed for photographs alongside the Duchess of Cornwall, The Prince of Wales, Doria Ragland, Lady Jane Fellowes, Lady Sarah Mccorquodale, The Duke of Cambridge and The Duchess of Cambridge in the Green Drawing Room at Windsor Castle.
In a touching tribute to Harry’s mother, Princess Diana’s sisters Lady Jane Fellowes and Lady Sarah Mccorquodale were at the forefont of the official picture. |
