The Glorious Christening of Prince George

THE Queen has become only the second sovereign in British history to be photographed with three future monarchs after posing with her son, grandson and great-grandson on Prince George’s christening day.

These were the scenes as history was made at Clarence House when a monarch and three future monarchs were captured together at an official event for the first time in 119 years.

The only other occasion was for the christening of the ill-fated future Edward VIII, who was held by his great-grandmother Queen Victoria, watched by his father, later George V, and his grandfather, the future Edward VII at his christening on July 16, 1894, at White Lodge in Richmond Park, London.

Prince George, who behaved impeccably throughout the christening service in the Chapel Royal at St James’s Palace, appeared equally serene during the official photo session with photographer Jason Bell during a tea party at Clarence House next door afterwards.Click link for full post from EXPRESS.
