Unfortunately, as previously reported, Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip decided a while ago that they would not be able to attend. Kensington Palace noted that the reason had nothing to do with the health of either of them.

令人遗憾的是，正如以前所报告的那样，伊丽莎白二世女王及其丈夫菲利普亲王不久前决定他们不能出席，肯辛顿宫指出，理由与他们中任何一个人的健康无关。

The 11-week-old child was fortunate enough to have six close friends and relatives act as godparents.

这个11周的孩子很幸运，有六个亲密的朋友和亲属充当教父母。

Nicholas van Cutsem, Guy Pelly, Harry Aubrey-Fletcher, Lady Laura Meade, Mrs Robert Carter and Lucy Middleton all agreed to the honor prior to the ceremony.

尼古拉斯·范库塞姆、居伊·佩利、哈利·奥布雷-弗莱彻、劳拉·米德夫人、罗伯特·卡特夫人和露西·米德尔顿在仪式举行之前都同意这一荣誉。

As People notes, the ceremony was conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Reverend Justin Welby.

正如人们指出的，仪式是由坎特伯雷大主教主持的，他是最伟大的贾斯汀·韦尔比牧师。

His recent work includes not only Louis' siblings christenings, but he officiated the high-profile royal wedding between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

他还主持了哈利亲王和梅根·马尔克尔之间引人注目的皇室婚礼。
