Lilibet was christened last Friday at home in California by the Archbishop of Los Angeles.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's Daughter Princess Lilibet Christened

PEOPLE exclusively confirms that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex held a christening for their 21-month-old daughter last Friday in a small and intimate ceremony at their home in Montecito, California.

When reached by PEOPLE, a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said: "I can confirm that Princess Lilibet Diana was christened on Friday, March 3 by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor."

According to a source, Meghan, 41, and Harry, 38, extended an invite to King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William and Kate Middleton, but they were not in attendance.

After their grandfather became monarch following the death of Queen Elizabeth last September, Archie, 3, and Lilibet were afforded the titles of prince and princess under rules set out by King George V in 1917.

An insider tells PEOPLE there were between 20-30 guests at Friday's intimate gathering, including Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland, Lilibet's godfather, Tyler Perry, and an unnamed godmother. Following the ceremony, attendees were treated to an afternoon of food and dancing ? with Archie enjoying a dance with his little sister!

No, they asked him to be Lili?s godfather, and he?s obviously been acting as an honorary one as her parents? friend, but now it?s official. The media speculated that Lili had been christened many weeks ago but neither Harry or Meghan said so.

I thought that he was always unofficial as he didn't regard himself as relgious.  so now Lili is going by the title of Princess

Princess Lilibet was christened on Friday, March 3 by the bishop of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor.

(He was mistakenly referred to as Archbishop by Sussex press team)

Rev John Taylor is a member of the US's Episcopal Church. It is part of the Anglican Communion which the Church of England is also apart of.

The presiding Bishop of the US's Episcopal Church is Rev Michael Curry, who spoke at the Sussexes wedding.

Congratz Lili! When they said he flew in and wore a suite, I had a feeling. He also brought a gospel choir!

I can appreciate that they sent an invite and I'm sure both sides knew that no one was really coming.

Now, someone needs to release the photo!

 :flower3:  Congratulations to Lilibet and her family on this milestone in her life.  :flower3: Considering that she's nearly two years old, I doubt that she wore the BRF's christening gown as I don't believe that it would fit. The second gown was modeled on the first one and that one was definitely made for infants. Traditionally a white garment is all that is required, so I presume that Lilibet just wore a white dress. I was hoping that the family would consider releasing a photo with the article, but for now it doesn't seem like we'll receive one.

I wonder if she was christened at home or at one of the nearby Episcopal churches?  Here's a list of the local ones.

According to People magazine, who broke the news the ceremony was at the family home.

I?d love to see a photo or two. Perhaps they?ll release a couple later, hope so!

@Curryong-Thank you. I wasn't sure what the guidelines/rules were for christenings in the Episcopal/Anglican church so I thought there might be a chance that they opted for one of the nearby churches.

Harry and Meghan-Please release a family photo from that day!!!   :happy:

I don?t think so not without permission from Harry and Meghan for release pictures don?t you remember last time Meghan against UK Taboilds for release pictures of Archie years ago and Meghan won case no privacy on their children for good reasons but in UK forbidden Harry and Meghan have christened in USA i know have small ceremony and low profile no official ceremony nor announcement from Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace

She?s a very cute baby. Interesting development. Nothing surprising, but still very contradictory to utilize a title for an institution when you say you don?t want an institution but a regular family.

I wonder if Charles? office sent over a gift or acknowledgment even if he (quite understandably) chose not to attend.

I'm sure that Lilibet has received gifts from her grandfather and other family members for this special milestone in her life.

I would certainly expect so, but since they chose to tell everyone that the RF was invited, I did wonder if he actually didn?t sent anything or if it was purposefully omitted.

I am glad that this happened though. Now we can see that nobody was denying them the right to use prince or princess (not even sure if that?s possible), it was only ever a matter of whether they wanted to style them that way. BP will now be changing the website per the Sussexes wish.

Harry and Meghan claimed the titles for both her and Archie during the christening. In fact a new report just came came out the palace will update the Royal website accordingly as well.

Why? In spite of the title now being used, she is still a private individual, and in any case the RF has usually kept christenings private.

Just because I'd like to see it.

If they don't release one, it's fine but Lili is too cute so it'd be nice to see.
