Boris Johnson’s son baptised Catholic

A statement from the Archdiocese of Westminster confirmed that the baptism of Wilfred Johnson took place.
“We can confirm that Wilfred Johnson was baptised in West-minster Cathedral on September 12, 2020, in a private ceremony, attended by both parents and a small number of guests, in keeping with current (Covid-19) guidelines,” said the diocese.
The government had revealed the baptism of the four-month-old boy to disprove claims in the media that the Prime Minister had taken time off work to make a social trip in Italy as the UK began to wrestle with a second wave of the coronavirus.
Johnson dismissed the allegations that he had been seen in Perugia that weekend as “completely untrue” with his spokesman inviting the media to “confirm with the priest” that he had attended his son’s baptism that day.
The priest who baptised Wilfred was Father Daniel Humphreys, the acting administrator of the cathedral, and he said performed the ceremony in the Lady Chapel. The identity of the godparents has not been revealed.
