It could be something to do with marketing because they&#8217;re not allowed to market the royal name.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They tried to set up a website called Sussex Royal and they were told no way, you can&#8217;t be putting royal names on jams, so I just wonder whether they were trying to angle for a Spencer brand or something,&#8221; she added. <\/p>\n<p>Later, Charlotte recalled royal author Tom Bower&#8217;s theory which said that Meghan &#8220;wanted to be closer to Diana&#8221; with the potential name change. <\/p>\n<p>The royal commentator said, &#8220;Mountbatten-Windsor is Archie and Lilibet&#8217;s surname. Lilibet&#8217;s full name is Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, so if her surname was Spencer, it would become Lilibet Diana Spencer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The name change controversy raised questions that Meghan might have &#8220;wanted her daughter to be sort of known as Diana Spencer, the new Princess of Wales.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In response, the show&#8217;s host called the Duchess of Sussex&#8217;s alleged decision for Lilibet &#8220;chilling.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meghan Markle raises concerns for Lilibet&#8217;s future days before 4th birthday Meghan Markle sparked reactions after a shocking&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":154167,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,65608,7721,7719,3576,7718,11748,12160,7720,1281,447,65607,7710,519,7711],"class_list":{"0":"post-154166","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-concerns","10":"tag-duchess-of-sussex","11":"tag-duke-of-sussex","12":"tag-for","13":"tag-harry","14":"tag-lilibet","15":"tag-markle","16":"tag-meghan","17":"tag-meghan-markle","18":"tag-prince-harry","19":"tag-raises","20":"tag-royal-families","21":"tag-royal-family","22":"tag-uk-royal-family"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114618139118540613","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/154166","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=154166"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/154166\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/154167"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=154166"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=154166"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=154166"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
