Lilibet ‘may not be christened at Windsor Castle after Prince Harry’s book announcement’ 

The Duke of Sussex is releasing a memoir next year

Following the news Prince Harry is releasing a book, royal experts have said his daughter Lilibet may not be christened at Windsor Castle.

Recent reports claimed Harry and Meghan Markle want their daughter – who was born on June 4 – to be christened in the same place as their son Archie.

Meanwhile, the Duke of Sussex, 36, will release his memoir in late 2022.

Mr Jobson wrote on Twitter: “Prince Harry is writing a memoir.

“I’d say the Windsor Christening of ‘Lilibet’ with the Queen present might well be off!

“Unless ‘H’ intends to combine it with a book signing tour of the UK that is.”

Meanwhile, expert Phil Dampier told The Sun‘s Fabulous: “These reports that he wants Lilibet to be christened over here with the Queen being present, I would have thought this is making that less and less likely.”

It comes after Harry released a statement about his new book, published by Random House.

He said: “I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become.

“I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story – the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned.

“I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think.”

In addition, the duke said he feels “deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far”.

The book sparked divided opinions, and some royal fans fear it will ‘burn bridges’ even more between Harry and his family.
