According to a Royal expert, Meghan Markle had “copyrighted” the name Lilibet before her daughter’s birth. The same expert criticized Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after allegations in a new Royal book that Queen Elizabeth was furious after they claimed she had given them permission to name their baby daughter Lilibet.

The late monarch first acquired the nickname Lilibet when she was a toddler and couldn’t pronounce her own name properly. Her grandfather, King George V, would call her Lilibet, imitating her attempts to say Elizabeth, and the name stuck.

In Charles III: New King, New Court, The Inside Story by Robert Hardman, parts of which have been serialized by the Daily Mail, it reads: “One [aide] privately recalled that Elizabeth II had been ‘as angry as I’d ever seen her’ in 2021 after the Sussexes announced that she had given them her blessing to name their baby daughter ‘Lilibet’, the Queen’s childhood nickname.”

At the time, reports suggested that the late Queen was consulted about the name but felt unable to refuse, while the BBC reported that a Palace source alleged the monarch was not asked by the Sussexes if they could use the name. The Sussexes’s lawyers reportedly sent legal letters to the BBC and other publishers at the time, claiming the allegation was false and defamatory, while their spokesperson insisted they had spoken to the late monarch.

Royal biographer Angela Levin has unleashed yet another scathing critique on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, accusing them of leaving Queen Elizabeth II “furious” with what she described as their “appalling” actions. According to the Express, Levin shared with GB News that the late monarch allegedly told Palace aides, “I don’t own the palaces or the paintings, only my name, and now they’ve taken that.”, reports the Irish Star.

In a conversation with presenter Eamonn Holmes, Levin, who is often criticizing the pair, claimed: “That’s an incredibly sad comment, I think one of the reasons she felt that way was because it was discovered that Meghan, even before Lilibet was born, had taken out the names officially so that she could use them to buy things and to identify them.”

When Holmes inquired, “What do you mean? They’d copyrighted the name? ” Levin confirmed, “Yes.”
