Speaking on Good Morning Britain, Kate noticed a significant oversight, expressing concern about the accuracy of the Sussexes' statements. She remarked, "You worry that the Sussexes don't particularly help themselves, don't you? They put out a statement saying that Princess Lilibet was christened last Friday by the Bishop of Los Angeles, which was a former journalist, actually a profession that Harry's not always keen on.
But actually, in the statement, they called him the Archbishop of Los Angeles, which is factually inaccurate. And you just think, gosh, someone who's so keen on accuracy and representation, it seems so unhelpful that things like that are wrong. If you're challenging reporting and the accuracy of that about yourself, you've got to get your own facts right, haven't you?"
Reverend John Taylor has a background in politics before entering religious service, having worked for former president Richard Nixon from 1984 until 1990. Although Taylor is the bishop of Los Angeles in the Episcopal Church, the timing of Lilibet's christening, three months before her second birthday, raised questions, especially considering Archie's christening when he was just a few months old. Some speculate that the delay may have been due to the COVID-19 pandemic and travel restrictions.
Ro commentator Daniela Elsa even suggested in the New Zealand Herald that the timing of Lilibet's christening might have been strategic. However, there are skeptics who question the existence of the children or doubt Lilibet's christening as an infant. Dr. Carol Lieberman criticized the Sussexes, claiming their actions reflect desperation, especially after altering the children's surname to Sussex instead of Mountbatten-Windsor.
According to Lieberman, Meghan's aim is to maintain a constant presence in the public eye, while Harry appears as a mere accessory. She highlighted Meghan's tendency to always be in the spotlight and symbolically lean on Harry, suggesting her desperate attempts to cling to her royal ties amid declining popularity.
