The christening ceremony of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s newborn son Master Archie Harrison – Winston Mountbatten is all set to take place in July.
With christening ceremonies holding immense importance for the new members of the royal family, people are speculating that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex might break a few royal traditions, given their history of not adhering to the traditional ways things are done in.
Prior to Archie’s birth, the couple released a statement telling fans they wished to keep the details surrounding Archie’s birth “private” until they had time to celebrate “as a new family.”
The couple kept the location of the birth of Archie private as well and have not really shared any pictures of the baby yet.
Here are three royal traditions Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are likely to breach at the christening of Prince Archie.
1. The Queen will not attend the event reportedly
2. Harry and Meghan will not release official photos from the ceremony
3. The ceremony could honour Archie’s American heritage, rather than his British one
Meanwhile, Meghan and Harry will follow royal traditional rules too. The venue of the ceremony will remain St George’s Chapel, where is also Prince Harry was christened.
