Prince George’s christening will take place on Wednesday, October 23 and will be attended by senior royals including The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh, Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry.
The Middleton family, including Kate’s parents Michael and Carole, will also join the small gathering which will be held in The Chapel Royal at St. James’s Palace.
