It’s the Royal Name Blame Game! Our royal show Palace Confidential examines the fallout
Manage episode 294641559 series 2838442
Choosing a name for a baby can be hard work, but only in the royal family could it lead to another transatlantic royal row and threats of legal action against newspapers. An extraordinary story in the BBC – an institution which usually steers clear of royal gossip – suggested that Harry and Meghan had NOT sought permission from the Queen to name their daughter Lillibet – Her Majesty’s family nickname. The name didn’t go down well with the Palace Confidential panel. ‘A lot of readers emailed me to say that they thought it was really shameless that they had done this,’ says Mail columnist Sarah Vine. ‘To deliberately almost stamp the royal name on this child’s head.’
