Ironically, Lilibet is a princess in real life and seventh in line to the British throne, while her older brother, Archie, 5, takes the sixth spot.
Meghan Markle’s Friend Revealed a Rare Detail About Princess Lilibet’s Personality
This week, chef Adrian Lipscombe, a friend of the Sussexes, shared that she recently sat down for a meal with the couple and revealed a sweet detail about Princess Lilibet’s current interests. While defending Markle’s Netflix cooking show against critics, Lipscombe noted that she and the duchess bonded over their daughter’s love for princesses.
The trailer for With Love, Meghan was released one day after the Duchess of Sussex kicked off 2025 by making her return to Instagram after a seven-year hiatus. The royal made her official comeback on New Year’s Day (aka January 1), and her first post included a short, serene video that perfectly captured fresh-start energy.
Princess Lilibet always had an awfully nice ring to it.
Princess Lilibet of Sussex – Meghan Markle daughter
Princess Lilibet of Sussex (née Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor; born 4 June 2021) is an American-born member of the British royal family. She is the daughter of Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex. She is a granddaughter of King Charles III and is seventh in the line of succession to the British throne. She was born during the reign of her great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, whose childhood nickname was Lilibet.
Titles, styles, and succession
At the accession of Charles III, Lilibet became entitled to use the title “princess” and style “royal highness” as the child of a son of the monarch, pursuant to letters patent issued by King George V in 1917. However, sources reported that it was unclear whether she would use that title, noting that not all members of the royal family who are eligible for a title choose to use one.
Lilibet will use titles in formal settings but not in everyday conversations
An 8 March 2023 statement by a spokesperson for Lilibet’s parents confirming her baptism days earlier marked the first time that her parents had publicly used her title of “princess”, with the announcement referring to her as “Princess Lilibet Diana”. The official website of the royal family was updated to refer to her as “Princess Lilibet of Sussex” on 9 March 2023.
