The duchess said of her daughter’s birth: “There was something that felt so complete, once we had Lilibet.

“Everyone just really respected that we’d been through so much and, we, like any parent, deserved to just welcome their child into the world peacefully.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s daughter was born at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in California.

After her arrival, her parents said in a statement: “On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili. She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we’ve felt from across the globe. ”

The young royal’s name is a sweet nod to her great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth who was affectionately nicknamed ‘Lilibet’ when she was little, and after her late grandmother, Princess Diana.

Lilibet was christened on March 3, 2023 in a private service at the Sussexes’s Montecito home by the Bishop of Los Angeles, John H. Taylor, with her godfather being American actor and comedian Tyler Perry and the identity of her godmother still unknown.
