Royal Couple’s Post Reveals True Feelings on Princess Lilibet’s Name

A recent revelation has shed light on Prince William and Princess Kate's sentiments towards the name chosen for Princess Lilibet in a congratulatory post.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge had publicly expressed their joy over Princess Lilibet's birth in 2021, but a closer look at their message hints at their true feelings regarding her name.

Following the arrival of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's second child, a book alleges that the late Queen was displeased upon discovering that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had opted to use her personal nickname for their newborn.

This revelation has sparked speculation about the royal family's stance on the chosen name.

In a surfaced post dated June 6, 2021, just two days after Princess Lilibet's birth, Prince William and Princess Kate refrained from using Lilibet's full name in their public acknowledgment, instead referring to her as Lily.

Their message conveyed, “We are delighted by the happy news of the arrival of baby Lily.

Congratulations to Harry, Meghan, and Archie.”

Similarly, another post made two days post-birth read, “Congratulations to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on the birth of Lilibet Diana.

The Queen, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted with the news.”

This post also highlighted Lilibet's significance as the late Queen's 11th great-grandchild.

Princess Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born in California on June 4, 2021, distinguishing her birthplace from that of her cousin, Prince Archie, who was born in the UK during Meghan's tenure as a senior royal.

The naming of Princess Lilibet as a tribute to Prince Harry's grandmother and her middle name in honor of his late mother, Princess Diana, reflects a poignant familial connection shared with Princess Charlotte.

In the pages of the new royal book, “Charles III, New King.

New Court.

The inside story,” author Robert Hardman delves into the late Queen's emotional response upon learning of the name choice for Princess Lilibet.

The intimate nickname had been a cherished identifier stemming from her childhood, a term of endearment also used by her father and Prince Philip.

Reportedly, the late Queen expressed her dismay to aides, stating, “I don't own the palaces.

I don't own the paintings, the only thing I own is my name.

And now they've taken that.”

Accounts from the late Queen's staff further suggest that she was profoundly upset by the couple's claim of seeking her approval for the name's usage, indicating a deep-seated conflict over the matter.
