Tyler Perry is Lilibet’s Godfather, But He Skipped the Christening

Perry became very close to Meghan and Harry thanks to all the help he gave them amid their move to California. For this reason, they thought he was a perfect option for a very important role in their daughter Lilibet's life. "We'll call, we'll chat, and we'll talk about silly things, and they were pretty serious on the phone. I go, "Okay, what's going on?" They said, "Well, we'd like for you to be Lili's godfather."

Perry was "honoured" and accepted happily, but he had one reservation. "'Hold on a second. Does this mean we gotta go over there and do all that in the church with them and figure all that out?'" he says, recounting their conversation. "'Because I don't want to do that.'"
