Well, well, well, the royals may have some explaining to do!
It appears that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ’s daughter, Lilibet , is still missing from the line of succession on the official website for the royal family , despite being born just weeks ago. In case you didn’t know, the newborn is eighth in line for the throne, and her name should come directly after Archie ’s on the formal list. However, it currently has the Duke of York — AKA Prince Andrew — placed in the particular same spot! Take a look at the evidence (below):

A super shady move, or did they just forget???
According to TMZ , when her older brother was born, Archie’ s name was added just 15 days after his arrival in 2019. Prince William and Kate Middleton ’s second child, Prince Louis , showed up on the website just 12 days after he was born. Even Zara and Mike Tindall ’s son Lucas , who is 22nd in line to the throne, has been added to the list since this individual was welcomed into the world in March! Lilibet was born on June 4 , yet still hasn’t made an appearance on the site.
Inneresting…
In an interview on the Royal Rota podcast, ITV News’ Chris Ship believes Buckingham Palace is “making a point” by taking their slow time in adding typically the little one’s name. He said, per The Mirror :
“You have got to ask what has taken them so long. All they have got to do is hit the paragraph button and put in a different number. They must possess done it before. They did it for Archie. Clearly, they did it for Louis when he was born. And they have got done it for some of this other children like August that have been born as well. ”
Perhaps, the royal institution is a tad salty that Meghan and Harry include been so outspoken about their own behind-the-scenes matters! Or they’re completely gobsmacked over the fact that the 36-year-old father decided in order to also write a tell-all memoir . (It is probably both, LOLz. ) The journalist continued:
“So where’ s Lilibet? I can forgive them a week or two but a month? …. Is it them saying, ‘We will get around to it when ready? ’ It does feel like to be able to me, maybe, they are making a point. ”
In response, a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace apparently told The Mirror that the website only gets “updated periodically. ” Sounds like an excuse to us, but we digress!
As you may know, Harry has reportedly made it clear that he plans to have Lilibet christened at Windsor Castle with his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II . According to The Daily Mail , sources claim that he produced his “intentions clear” during their trip home to England for Princess Diana ’s statue unveiling:
“Harry told several people that they want to currently have Lili christened at Windsor, simply like her brother. They are happy to wait until circumstances allow. ”
Who knows when that will happen! In the meantime, though, often the royal family can get to work on adding Lilibet’s name to the official succession line. Just an idea, of course!
