Singer Charlotte Church and her partner Gavin Henson christened their daughter at a Catholic church in Cardiff on Saturday.
Their nine-month-old daughter Ruby Megan Henson was baptized at St. Mary of the Angels Church, the singer’s family church, news reports say.
Church asked her favorite priest, Father Christopher Delaney, to perform the baptism. The priest also baptized her as a baby, according to Wales on Sunday.
The priest said he was happy to welcome the family back to his church.
“It was a really lovely service,” Father Delaney said to Wales on Sunday. “It was a very special occasion – as is every christening. I did christen Charlotte all those years ago as well.”
Church mentions “poor old Father Delaney” in her song titled “Confessional Song.” The singer even nominated him for a Red Cross award for being “one of the greatest humanitarians of all time.”
