Taylor Swift, Meryl Streep & More
Sometimes godparents also need to take a step back and reflect on the importance of their role.
Tyler Perr was chosen by Meghan and Prince Harry as the godfather for their princess Lilibet Diana. Tyler admitted that he was “honored” but also needed “a moment” to think about the decision. This is especially true if he had to attend a royal christening public in England. “I said, ‘Uh… hold on for a moment. Do we have to go there, do it all in the church and work out all this stuff? Because I don’t like that. Maybe we can do a little private ceremony here and let that be that and if you have to do it there, then that’s OK.'”Instead, Harry and Meghan–who are also parents to Prince Archie Harrison–held a private christening in California, and Tyler was certainly glad he said yes to being Lili’s godfather. Tyler raved about Lili’s beauty on an episode of Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa in 2023. They make beautiful babies. That’s all I can say. “
Several other stars have taken on the very special role, too–including
Meryl Streep, Jennifer Aniston
and Taylor Swift.
