In the video, she can be seen dancing in one of the royal rooms. Her low profile visit has sparked speculations that she could be in running for the Godmother’s position for Baby Archie. A godparent in Christianity is a person who presents the child during the baptism ritual. The person will have to be responsible for the child’s religious education. Usually, godparents are close friends of the parents who share similar religious and moral views.
Serena is one of the greatest athletes of our times and to have her as a godparent is beyond cool! She was also one of the high profile guests at Meghan’s high-profile wedding with Prince Harry.
If not Serena, Jessica Mulroney, who is BFFs with Meghan could end up as Archie’s godmother. But there has been no official confirmation from the Buckingham Palace.
