Elizabeth II: this tender message she sends after the birth of Meghan and Harry's baby
Lilibet "Lili" Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born last Friday in California, United States. The birth of the little princess was revealed on Sunday.
According to a statement by a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace: "The Queen, Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall, as well as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been informed and are delighted with the news of the birth of a daughter for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex ". An official statement was released by the Queen and the Royal Family to congratulate the couple on the birth of their new daughter.
Although the little princess, Archie's sister who was born in 2019 and cousin of Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis has the first name Lilibet, she will be known as Lili. Lilibet is none other than the nickname given to the Queen's family. Diana, the Princess's middle name, naturally comes from the first name of the Princess of Wales, her grandmother.
It was during their memorable interview with Oprah Winfrey that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced that they were expecting a girl. The princess was born "Friday June 4 at 11:40 am, under the careful care of doctors and staff at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, Calif.".
Meghan and Harry have still lived in the United States since last year following tensions between them and the royal family. We must remember Meghan's statement accusing a member of the royal family of racism. The statement concerned the family's concern over the color of the skin of Archie, the couple's eldest, even before he was born.
