Amid all of the rumors, a spokesperson for the Sussexes stated, "Plans for the baby’s christening have not been finalized, and as such, any assumptions about what will or will not take place are mere speculation."

Royal expert Russell Myers believes that Harry and Meghan won't even publicize details of the ceremony until after it takes place.

"Who knows when they will be making their next trip here? Will it be the christening? Will it be for Christmas? I don’t think it will be this year," he noted. "Again, anything could happen. The word from their people is they haven't decided [on the christening plans]. I don’t know if I necessarily take that at face value. I think they will probably drop an announcement that it’s already happened and that will be all you know about it."
