Prince Harry and Meghan Markle caused quite a stir and reportedly left the late Queen Elizabeth furious when they decided to name their daughter Lilibet, the affectionate family nickname of the monarch. In 2021, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex publicly announced their choice, emphasizing that they had the Queen’s blessing. However, a palace insider offered a different perspective, describing the Queen as angrier than ever in response to the Sussexes’ announcement.

Despite the couple’s claims of the Queen’s support, the insider revealed a starkly different reality. The couple even took legal action against news organizations, including the BBC, threatening lawsuits against those suggesting otherwise. The spokesperson at the time emphasized that Prince Harry had discussed the matter with his family, particularly his grandmother, and the Queen’s support was crucial for choosing the name Lilibet.
Robert Hardman’s new biography, “Charles 3: New King, New Court,” sheds additional light on the situation. The book suggests that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tried to enlist Buckingham Palace’s support for their version of events but were ultimately rebuffed. Hardman’s account highlights a discrepancy in recollections, reminiscent of the controversy surrounding the late Queen’s reaction to the Oprah Winfrey interview.

The narrative presented by the Sussexes, including the threats of legal action, faced challenges when seeking the Palace’s backing. The attempt to align the palace with their version of events did not succeed, creating a situation where recollections may vary. Notably, the legal actions initially threatened against the BBC did not materialize, raising questions about the true nature of the Queen’s feelings regarding the naming of Lilibet.
This adds another layer to the complex relationship between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the royal family, suggesting that the public narrative may not always align with private sentiments within Buckingham Palace. As debates about the Sussexes’ interaction with the Royal Institution continue, this episode becomes an important chapter in the ongoing saga of their life after royalty and their interaction with the British monarchy.
