Details about Archie's baptism
Archie will be baptized by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
The names of the godparents will not be made public.
At first I was surprised that the godparents won't be made public, but I suppose they are following in the footsteps of Peter and Zara Phillips- I don't think they publicized any details of their children's baptisms. Harry's position is different, of course.
My support for them is eroding. It's fine to change things, but keeping the names of the godparents private is a low blow. It seems like they are trying to hide something.

ReplyDeletethe announcement makes it clear that it is the wish of the godparents. We do not know the godparents of Zara and Peter's kids
ReplyDeleteHow this is a low blow baffles me. I’m sure we will see lovely pictures soon enough.
ReplyDeleteBut Harry is the son of a future king... Zara and Peter are not...
