"Royal Fury: The Naming of Lilibet Sparks Controversy"

TL;DR Summary
A new royal biography claims that Queen Elizabeth II was infuriated when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle claimed she had given them her "blessing" to name their daughter Lilibet, her private childhood nickname. The queen was reportedly never consulted about the use of Lilibet and felt backed into a corner. The couple's assertion that the queen was supportive sparked a royal row, with the BBC reporting that the queen was "never asked" by the Sussexes if they could use Lilibet. Harry and Meghan escalated the situation by getting their lawyers involved, but the queen's household issued instructions to correct any misrepresentations of her private conversations.
