Prince Charles: accused of racism against Archie, he reacts violently and calls lawyers – Close

“There have been concerns and conversations about his skin color.” Last March, during an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Meghan Markle confided in the racism experienced within the British Crown. At the time, the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry had preferred to keep silent the name of the person they were targeting then. Months later, an author claims it is Prince Charles. In his book Brothers And Wives: Inside The Private Lives of William, Kate, Harry and Meghan, Christopher Andersen unveils a conversation that would have taken place between the Prince of Wales and Camilla Parker Bowles, on the day of Harry and Meghan’s engagement, the November 27, 2017. “I wonder what their children will be like”, he would have asked his wife, who replied: “Well, I’m sure they’ll be gorgeous.”

“I mean what could be the color of their children’s skin?”, would then have added Prince Charles. As soon as this excerpt was published in the columns of Page Six, a representative of the future King of England took the floor. “This is fiction and not worth commenting on any further”, he assured the Sun. Neither one nor two, the son of Elizabeth II would have contacted the lawyers of the British royal family to give judicial follow-up to these accusations. “I think Charles would be very irritated and annoyed by these kinds of accusations because he is anything but racist, reacted author Ingrid Seward. If he really made that point, I’m sure it was in a perfectly innocent way, because anyone would ask questions about the birth of a child and what the baby would look like. “

Meghan and Harry: why they did not disclose the name of the person concerned

Buckingham Palace also replied, explaining not wanting to comment on such accusations. The author of the book, meanwhile, assured the Sun that Prince Charles’ remarks had been made “without ulterior motive”. As a reminder, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry revealed the racist remarks allegedly suffered by their eldest during their interview with Oprah Winfrey. If at first, they “considered naming the royal who revealed concerns about Archie’s skin color”, the Sussexes preferred not to say anything in the end. A source told the Daily Mail: “The couple believe that revealing the name of the person behind the racist remark would be very damaging.”
