**Late Queen’s Heartbreak Unveiled Over Princess Lilibet’s Name Choice**
The late queen was taken aback upon learning that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had opted to name their baby daughter after the late monarch's childhood nickname.
Reports suggest that the revelation came as a great shock to Her Majesty.
In a recent panel discussion on GB News, TV personality and socialite Lady Colin Campbell alleged that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had misled the queen regarding their choice of name for their daughter.
Lady Colin Campbell claimed that the queen had been under the impression that the baby girl would be named Elizabeth.
Expressing her thoughts on the matter, Lady Colin Campbell stated, “I think they had to have lied because my information was that Harry asked her if he could name his daughter after her, and she thought the name was going to be Elizabeth.”
She further added that the queen was not only surprised to discover that the child was named Lilibet but also that the birth registration made it impossible to change the name.
During the discussion, GB News host Patrick Christie's inquired about the significance of the name Lilibet and whether the decision posed any challenges.
Commentator Phil Dampier remarked that it was disheartening to learn that the queen had experienced such distress in the final months of her life, leading to unprecedented anger according to aides.
In his new book titled “Charles III: The New King You Caught,” author Robert Hardman delves into the behind-the-scenes story, alleging that the queen was particularly incensed by Meghan and Harry's choice to use her childhood nickname, Lilibet, for their daughter.
Unlike her older brother, two-year-old Lilibet was born in America and also received a middle name in tribute to her late grandmother, Princess Diana.
Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor made her entrance into the world on June 4, 2021, in Santa Barbara, California.
Meghan and Harry had previously indicated that they would not have selected the name if the late queen had not shown her support for it.
The endearing moniker, Lilibet, traces back to Elizabeth II's early childhood when she struggled to pronounce her own name.
The choice to bestow this name upon the newest member of the royal family has stirred up emotions and ignited discussions surrounding royal traditions and family dynamics.
