An insider tells People that 20 to 30 guests attended, including Markle’s mother Doria Ragland and Lilibet’s godfather Tyler Perry. The festivities included food and dancing — Archie and Lilibet even danced together!

Now, the world is waiting to see if Harry and Meghan will attend the King’s coronation in May amid their royal rift.
