The 45-minute ceremony conducted by Justin
Welby, spiritual head of the Anglican communion of millions of
Christians globally, took place at the Chapel Royal at St
James's Palace on Tuesday, the paper said.
The secret baptism was followed immediately by her confirmation,
it added.
"That's not something that we are commenting on," Harry's office
said about the report.
The Mail said Harry's father, heir-to-the-throne Prince Charles
and his wife Camilla were present but Queen Elizabeth, the
titular head of the Church of England, was not.
When Markle, 36, and Harry, 33, announced their engagement last
November, his office said Markle, who attended a Catholic school
as a child, identified as a Protestant and would be baptized and
confirmed before their marriage on May 19.
Welby will preside over the exchange of wedding vows at the
ceremony at Windsor castle although the service itself will be
conducted by the Dean of Windsor.
