‘First ever American princess,’ Meghan and Harry's daughter Lilibet receives the title

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s daughter, Lilibet Diana has been dubbed the first-ever American princess’ by royal experts.

The claim’s been made by royal biographer Andrew Morton, who has penned an updated version of his book on Meghan, said, “I think what people haven't really taken on board is that Lilibet is going to be the first ever American princess. Archie was born in the UK.”

After Harry and Meghan stepped down from their royal duties, the couple moved to California, U.S. where they welcomed their second child, baby Lili in June this year.

During the course of the interview with Salon, Morton also shed light on the significance of Lilibet’s baptism and added, “There's some debate about whether she's going to be christened in the US or the UK.”

After all "If she's christened in the US, then I think America will embrace her as an American princess."

The Sussexes named their daughter after the Royal family's nickname for the Queen Elizabeth – Lilibet.
