Today, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are celebrating their nephew Prince Louis' (opens in new tab) christening with the immediate royals (minus the Queen and Prince Philip (opens in new tab)). It's clearly a very special day for the family, and an opportunity for Meghan to bond with her new nephew since he didn't make an appearance at the royal wedding (opens in new tab).
Meghan looks amazing (per usual) in an olive green Ralph Lauren dress (opens in new tab) and a Stephen Jones hat, while Harry chose his signature blue suit for their nephew's christening. A couple days ago, they both attended the 'Your Commonwealth' Youth Challenge Reception (opens in new tab) and definitely didn't hold back on the PDA (opens in new tab). Even though this is a more formal event, the couple didn't limit the hand-holding and touching here either.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince Charles, Duchess Camilla, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and more family members are gathering at The Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace in London to watch the newest little prince (opens in new tab) get baptized by the Archbishop of Canterbury (opens in new tab), Justin Welby.

We haven't seen a live glimpse of Prince Louis since he made his debut on the steps of the Lindo Wing (opens in new tab) at St. Mary's Hospital when Kate Middleton gave birth to him on April 23. We did, however, see the cutest picture to ever exist of him and his older Charlotte, 3, in an official portrait released by Kensington Palace (opens in new tab). In the photo, Charlotte is kissing Louis (opens in new tab) on the forehead while holding him in her arms (opens in new tab). I'm not crying, you're crying.
Prince Louis' godparents were announced (opens in new tab) earlier this morning, but Harry and Meghan didn't make the cut (opens in new tab). Instead, William and Kate chose close friends of the royal family (opens in new tab).
