The Prince George third in line to the throne, was baptised on october 23 at the Chapel Royal at St James's Palace in London. He was baptised by the Archbishop of Canterbury. It was a private christening, with only senior royals, four members of the Middleton family, the seven godparents and their spouses among the 22 guests. He was wearing a replica of a gown worn by Queen Victoria's eldest daughter. 

    The duchess carried her newly christened son out of the chapel after the ceremony, and the guests then left for tea hosted by the Princes of Wales at Clarence House. The Queen told to the guests how much she had enjoyed the ceremony. It took about 45 minutes.
