Britain’s Prince George has been christened at the St. James’s Palace in central London. Wednesday’s ceremony was a small and private one, attended by just 21 guests.
The son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge was baptized by the Archbishop of Canterbury with water from the River Jordan. Queen Elizabeth, her husband Prince Philip, heir apparent Prince Charles, his wife Camilla, and William’s brother Harry attended the service at the Chapel Royal. Also present were the Duchess ’s family and seven godparents of the newborn.
The Queen posed for a four-generation group photo, the first of its kind since 1890s. Three-month-old George is the third in line to the throne. He wore a replica of the lace and satin christening gown made for Queen Victoria’s eldest daughter in 1841. |
