London : Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle on Saturday are expected to hold the baptism ceremony of their son, Archie, in Windsor Castle, on the outskirts of London, in what is to be a private ceremony attended by family and close friends, although details were yet to be made public.

So little information has been let out by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex that not even the names of the godparents of the child - seventh in the line of succession to the British crown - have been revealed, reports Efe news.

The ceremony will be bereft of media presence in contrast to those held by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Kate, for their three children, as Harry and Meghan have decided to bring up Archie as a private citizen.

Efforts have been made to keep the baptism a low profile one for someone from the British royal family, and the ceremony will not witness the presence of Archie's great grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, who is scheduled to attend other commitments.

However, the Queen's absence is not unprecedented, as last year she did not attend the baptism of her great grandson, Prince Louis.

Those that will attend include Prince Charles and his wife Camila; Prince William and Kate; Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland; and a small group of close friends of Archie's parents, reaching a total of some

25 people.
