Harry and Meghan spark outrage as they ban royals and the public alike from Archie’s big day
For a royal baby, his or her christening is usually a grand occasion and a cause for celebration, not only for members of the family, but for fans around the world.
Traditionally, the royal couple invite a photographer to capture the event, allowing gorgeous images of the little one to be beamed around the world as the christening happens.
So when it was revealed last week the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would instead be hosting a private affair on July 6 to christen Master Archie within the Queen’s chapel at Windsor Castle for just 25 guests and no press, it certainly ruffled feathers through Great Britain and beyond.
Not only did they snub fans from seeing the procession into the event, but they also chose not to release photographs until the following day.
What’s more, the royal couple insisted they wouldn’t be revealing the names of Archie’s godparents, a move that added to speculation Harry’s brother and sister-inl-aw, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, may have been snubbed.
Unfortunately for Meghan and Harry, their decision to keep the event under wraps has sparked fury across England, just weeks after they came under fire for blowing their taxpayer-funded budget on a $4.4 million luxury upgrade to their home, Frogmore Cottage.
And even Woman’s Day’s long-time palace insiders are flabbergasted that the couple are behaving in such a “spoiled” way – especially given they’ve already copped a massive backlash for their behaviour since their wedding last year.
