William and Kate christened their little prince

Hello my darlings,
Question: Who loves the British Royal Family?
I know I do.

We all know that millions of people (including me) are interested in the Royal Family. And since the royal wedding back in 2011, it seems that the world is more obsessed than ever: either it's the Queen celebrating the Diamond Jubilee or Prince Harry partying in Las Vegas... naked, the people are always interested in what they do.

So naturally the world exploded with excitement hearing the announcement of a royal baby. Since 22 July 2013, when Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge was born, all of us barely waited to see more photos of the little prince.

And here I am, telling you about what happened yesterday:
Yesterday, 23rd of October, the proud parents William and Kate christened their little bundle of joy, Prince George.

The happy event took place at Chapel Royal in St. James Palace, where the Royal Family and the Middletons gathered at 3pm London time  to see the 3-month-old future king being christened with water from the River Jordan. The ceremony was led by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby.

The Duke and the Duchess of Cambridge chose close friends of them to be George's godparents:
Oliver Baker, Emilia Jardine-Paterson (attended Marlborough College with the duchess), Earl Grosvenor (son of the Duke of Westminster), Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton (was private secretary to the duke and the duchess), Julia Samuel (was a close friend to the duke's mother, Diana, Princess of Wales), William van Cutsem (childhood friend of Prince William) and Zara Tindall (Pince William's cousin).

The little prince wore a handmade replica of the royal christening robe, while his mother, Kate Middleton wore a gorgeous Alexander McQueen outfit.


After the ceremony, Prince Charles and Camilla held a reception at their London home, Clarence House, where Will and Kate will eat the saved tiers of their wedding cake from 2011, as per tradition.

Here are more photos from the happy event:

That was all from the fabulous life of the royals,
