“British Royal Family Didn’t Want My Child To Be A Prince Over Fear Of His Skin Color”- Meghan Markle

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry recently had a “tell it all” interview with Oprah Winfrey where she opened up about issues she had with the Royal Family.

Meghan said in the interview with Oprah Winfrey that when she was first pregnant with son Archie there were “concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born”.

Speaking on CBS she declined to say who had this conversation with Harry, which he then relayed to her, saying revealing their name would be “very damaging”.

Meghan also said she was stunned when she was told Archie would not be a prince and would not receive security from the palace.

“They didn’t want him to be a prince or princess, not knowing what the gender would be, which would be different from protocol, and that he wasn’t going to receive security,” she said.

“In those months when I was pregnant, all around this same time, so we have in tandem the conversation of, ‘you won’t be given security, not going to be given a title’, and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born.”
