The Sussex Saga: A Christening to Remember (or Forget)

In a world where drama often reigns supreme, and have once again stolen the spotlight with their latest escapade.

The couple, known for their penchant for controversy, has turned the christening of their daughter, , into a spectacle that leaves many shaking their heads in disbelief.

Just when you thought the Sussex saga couldn't get any more absurd, they've managed to raise the stakes yet again.

The christening itself isn't newsworthy; royal babies are typically baptized without much fuss.

However, leave it to Harry and Meghan to transform a simple ceremony into a chaotic affair.

The couple has taken to referring to their daughter as “Princess ,” a title that seems to change as frequently as the weather.

One moment she's just Lilibet, and the next, she's a princess.

It raises the question: what's the deal with all these royal titles?

But the real kicker came in their official announcement regarding the christening.

They claimed that Lilibet was baptized by the Archbishop of Los Angeles.

Here's the catch—there is no Archbishop of Los Angeles!

You'd think that with their extensive PR teams, someone would have done a quick fact-check.

Apparently, accuracy is not a priority when you're busy crafting an image of faux royalty in Montecito.

Ironically, this comes from a couple that has frequently criticized media reporting for its inaccuracies.

Kate Garraway aptly pointed out the hypocrisy.

If you want to challenge the accuracy of others, it's essential to ensure your own facts are straight.

Instead of an archbishop, it turns out that the actual officiant was Bishop John Harvey Taylor.

It's almost comical how they missed such a basic detail.

Picture the scene in the Sussex household: Meghan casually asks Harry about the difference between a bishop and an archbishop.

Harry shrugs and says it doesn't matter, while Meghan decides to go with the fancier title.

It's amusing, but also painfully embarrassing.

This incident underscores a larger issue—the couple's relentless quest for attention and relevance.

Why announce the christening months after it happened?

Why reintroduce royal titles they've claimed to abandon?

It feels like a desperate attempt to stay in the public eye, akin to that friend who constantly posts vague, dramatic updates on social media.

And let's talk about their children for a moment.

Harry and Lilibet are rarely seen, leading some to wonder if they even exist outside of staged appearances.

The situation grows more perplexing with each passing day.

It's hard not to feel a sense of disbelief at the lengths they'll go to maintain their narrative.

Will they soon claim that Lilibet was baptized with holy water from Atlantis?

The audacity of their actions is astounding.

They seem to be playing at royalty while simultaneously criticizing the institution that granted them those titles.

Meanwhile, the actual royals, like William and Kate, are busy fulfilling their duties, supporting significant causes, and comforting families in need.

In contrast, Harry and Meghan appear to be caught in a never-ending performance, reminiscent of a community theater production of The Crown.

They have the costumes and the titles, but the execution is lacking.

This christening debacle highlights how far Harry has strayed from his royal roots.

Once a beloved prince, he now seems to be relegated to the role of Meghan's assistant, holding her umbrella while she plays the part of royalty.

It's a tragic fall from grace, especially for someone who grew up in the royal family and should understand the importance of accuracy.

As for Meghan, her desire for recognition is palpable.

She seems to yearn for the nobility associated with royalty, but being royal is about more than just titles.

It involves duty and service, qualities that she left behind quicker than she could say “Netflix deal.” Their christening took place at home in Montecito, raising eyebrows about the absence of actual royals.

, , William, and Kate were all invited but didn't attend.

Perhaps they were preoccupied with their royal responsibilities.

Timing also plays a crucial role here.

Lilibet was 21 months old at her christening, whereas most royal babies are typically baptized within months of their birth.

When you're making up your own rules, tradition seems to take a back seat.

This entire saga feels like a poorly executed play, with no one knowing their lines and the audience left bewildered.

Harry and Meghan had a chance to carve out a unique path for themselves.

Instead, they've opted for a series of PR blunders that have turned them into the punchline of a global joke.

If there were an Olympic event for public gaffes, they'd sweep the podium.

What's next?

Perhaps they'll announce that has been knighted or that Lilibet is the queen of their backyard.

As the Sussex saga unfolds, one can only wonder what will come next.

With each misstep, they reinforce the notion that they might not be suited for life in the public eye.

The Great Lilibet Christening debacle of 2023 has everything: fake titles, non-existent archbishops, and enough drama to fill a season of a soap opera.

It's both sad and entertaining, leaving us to ponder the future of this royal drama.
