Recall that in their tell-all CBS interview with Oprah Winfrey, Harry and Meghan claimed an unnamed member of the royal family had questioned what colour skin their baby Archie might have. Meghan also claimed she had felt suicidal, but her pleas for help with her mental health were ignored.
Her husband Prince Harry also condemned his relatives for failing to criticise colonial undertones in media coverage, in a series of damning and disturbing claims that threaten to spark a racism scandal around Buckingham Palace.
