When Meghan Markle used her childhood nickname to trademark her baby Lilibet’s name, Queen Elizabeth II became enraged.
In his latest book, “Charles III: New King, New Court, The Inside Story,” Robert Hardman describes how the Duke and Duchess of Sussex reportedly appropriated and then copyrighted Her Majesty’s well-loved moniker, Lilibet.
The Daily Mail reports that the book notes: “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 call their baby daughter ‘Lilibet’, the Queen’s childhood nickname.”
Meanwhile, GB News is informed by royal expert Angela Levin that Meghan has legally reserved the right to use the name.
She observed: “That’s a really sad comment. I believe that part of the reason she felt that way was when it was revealed that Megan had legally removed the names before Lilibet was born in order to use them to identify and purchase items.
“Yes,” Levin continued. I think it was terrible for the Queen before Lilibet because the name is so distinctive that it makes her want to possess organizations.
