Mali princ je krščen, kraljice ni bilo

V kapeli na gradu Windsor so danes v ožjem družinskem in prijateljskem krogu krstili prvega sina britanskega princa Harrya in njegove soproge Meghan. Krsta Archieja Harrisona Mountbatten-Windsorja se sicer zaradi drugih obveznosti ni udeležila kraljica Elizabeta II.

Magazin Težave: Zato kraljice ne bo na Archiejev krst

Kraljica je namreč vsako leto na začetku junija na Škotskem, kjer s svojimi podaniki, tako veleva tradicija, naknadno praznuje svoj rojstni dan, ki je ga ima sicer aprila. S Harryjem in Meghan ter seveda njunim sinčkom se bo kraljica spet srečala avgusta. 

Prvorojenca vojvode in vojvodinje sussekške je krstil canterburyjski nadškof Justin Welby, ki je tudi poročil Harryja in Meghan, poroča britanski BBC.

This morning, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was christened in the Private Chapel at Windsor Castle at an intimate service officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are so happy to share the joy of this day with members of the public who have been incredibly supportive since the birth of their son. They thank you for your kindness in welcoming their first born and celebrating this special moment. Their Royal Highnesses feel fortunate to have enjoyed this day with family and the godparents of Archie. Their son, Archie, was baptised wearing the handmade replica of the royal christening gown which has been worn by royal infants for the last 11 years. The original Royal Christening Robe, made of fine Honiton lace lined with white satin, was commissioned by Queen Victoria in 1841 and first worn by her eldest daughter. It was subsequently worn for generations of Royal christenings, including The Queen, her children and her grandchildren until 2004, when The Queen commissioned this handmade replica, in order for the fragile historic outfit to be preserved, and for the tradition to continue.

Harry in Meghan sta se držala nekaterih kraljevih tradicij. Archie je bil med drugim oblečen v ročno izdelano repliko krstne obleke, ki jo je nosila najstarejša hči kraljice Viktorije. To obleko so nosili otroci kraljevi družine za krst že zadnjih 11 let. Sešila jo je šivilja kraljice Elizabete II. Angela Kelly.
