Royal Rift: Harry & Meghan's Lilibet Name Choice

0:00It's April 20th. From Hollywood to your headphones, this is entertainment and celebrity news. Today, powered by AI, I'm Cory with the story. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle named their daughter Lillibet back in 2021, barring Queen Elizabeth's cherished childhood nickname. The Queen struggled to say her own name as a kid, so her grandfather, King George V, started calling her Lillibet, and it stuck as her most. Private family moniker. That nickname was sacred, reserved only for closest relatives, making the choice a bold move without much warning to the palace. Royal watchers and historians lit up over it with author Hugo Vickers calling the decision shocking and odious on a recent podcast. He claims the Queen was furious, especially since no real permission came through. Harry and Meghan's team insist they got full approval and wouldn't have used it otherwise, but Buckingham Palace sources flat out deny any green. Light was given. Fast forward to new books like Robert Jopson's on King Charles, revealing the late Queen told A's
