Serena Williams is believed to have jetted into London to visit Archie Harrison on a flying visit last week before playing in the French Open tournament. Suspicion about the visit was raised after the seven-time Wimbledon champion posted a picture inside a palatial room with gold-fringed walls and a plush red carpet. The 37-year-old was accompanied on the trip by her husband Alexi Ohanian, 36, and their daughter, Olympic, aged one. Serena and Meghan Markle, 38, became pals after meeting at a US charity football match in 2014.

Meghan wrote on her former lifestyle blog The Tig the pair “hit it off immediately” and chatted “not about tennis or acting but about good old fashioned girly stuff”.

Serena was one of the A-listers at Megan’s glitzy baby shower in New York in mid-February.

The glamorous event was held inside the penthouse of Mark Hotel on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, which costs an eye-watering(£59,000) $75,000 a night.

But Meghan’s best friend Jessica Mulroney was also at the baby shower and also flew to the UK from Toronto with her daughter Ivy, five, a few days ago.

Ms Mulroney was pictured boarding a plane at Toronto Pearson International Airport with Ivy.

The Canadian stylist later teased her fans on Instagram sharing a picture inside a Windsor gift shop located near to Meghan’s Frogmore Cottage.

Followers identified the shops as Daniel Department Store in the heart of Windsor where Meghan and Prince Harry tied the know in May last year.

Who will be baby Archie’s godparents?

The bookies are tipping Jessica Mulroney as the favourite to be Archie’s godmother.

Leading bookmakers Coral is offering odds of 1-2 on Jessica, while Serena is only 8-1.

Benitta Litt, Meghan’s childhood friend, is just behind Jessica with odds of 5-4.

Coral’s John Hill said: “Given how close she is to Meghan, Jessica Mulroney seems an obvious choice to be a godparent to young Archie.

“Benita Litt and Prince William are both at the top end of the betting, while we have seen strong money for Amal Clooney.”

The list of contenders in the running for godparents are:

1-2 Jessica Mulroney, 5-4 Benita Litt, 2-1 Prince William,2-1 Nicolas van Cutsem, 3-1 Abigail Spencer, 4-1 Tom Inskip, 5-1 Princess Eugenie, 6-1 Mark Dyer, 7-1 Amal Clooney, 8-1 Serena Williams, 10-1 Misha Nonoo, 12-1 Oprah Winfrey, 14-1 Tiggy Pettifer, 16-1 Markus Anderson, 33-1 Barack Obama

Archie Harrison is assured to have a VIP group of playmates regardless of who his godparents are.
