Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana: Bookies favourites to be the royal baby's godparents aren't who you think they are
|
Version 0 of 1. Just when you thought (hoped) there couldn’t possibly be anything left to gamble on regarding the second royal baby, along comes the odds on who the godparents are most likely to me. And no, David and Victoria Beckham remain unlikely choices. According to new figures released by bookmakers Ladbrokes, Princess Beatrice is the most popular person to take up the title when Princess Charlotte is christened, closely followed by her sister Eugenie in second place. Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice (right) as they visit the Berlin British School in the German capital during their first joint overseas engagement Princess Anne's son Peter Phillips and Prince William's close friend Hugh van Cutsem make up third and fourth place, while Prince Harry lies in fifth. The Duchess of Cambridge’s two siblings, Pippa and James Middleton, only come in at sixth and seventh. A report on the Mail Online speculates that Pippa isn’t being considered for the role because of her career hopes across the pond in the US.

They were seen leaving the London residence in a black Range Rover and apparently arrived at the estate at 3.40pm. You’re welcome. Meanwhile, a Japanese zoo has reportedly apologised for naming a baby monkey Charlotte in honour of the second royal baby. Keepers apparently received a number of complaint about the monicker.
