Buckingham Palace ends silence on Harry, Meghan racism allegations
The HinduBuckingham Palace issued a statement on Tuesday, saying the family was “saddened” to learn of the struggles that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle revealed this week — and that they would be taken very seriously. The statement is the first comment by the palace following Prince Harry and Ms. Markle’s two-hour television interview with Oprah Winfrey in which they alleged that Ms. Markle had experienced racism and callous treatment during her time in the royal family. “While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately.’’ The statement also said that “Harry, Meghan and Archie will always be much loved family members." She also said a member of the royal family had expressed “concerns” to Prince Harry about the colour of her unborn child’s skin.
