Royal Family holds crisis meetings over Harry, Meghan Oprah Winfrey interview. Meghan and Prince Harry indicated during the interview that some members of the royal family had expressed that the then-to-be-born Archie would not deserve to be called Prince because of how “dark his skin would be” when he’s born.
The United Kingdom’s Royal Family is reportedly holding crisis meetings following Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s interview with Oprah Winfrey which exposed that some members of the family uttered some racist remarks towards the Duchess of Sussex.
Meghan also said that she contemplated committing suicide over the racist remarks. She said that she found royal life so difficult that at times she “didn’t want to be alive anymore”, and when she approached the institution for help, she did not get it.
In those months when I was pregnant, all around this same time so we have in tandem the conversation of he won’t be given security, he’s not going to be given a title, and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he was born.
The duo eventually left the royal family to start a new life in the United States. Meanwhile, BBC royal correspondent Daniela Relph said Buckingham Palace “will not want to feel rushed into saying something” about Prince Harry and Meghan’s claims that some members of the family were racist.
Commenting on the allegations, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said that Meghan’s allegations about racism and a lack of mental health support should be taken “very seriously”. Prime Minister Boris Johnson declined to comment on Monday, but said he has “always had the highest admiration for the Queen and the unifying role she plays”. He said:
… when it comes to matters to do with the Royal Family, the right thing for prime ministers to say is nothing. There have been calls in the UK to abolish the monarchy system which is said to be “archaic” and “oppressive” in this era.
