Buckingham Palace issued a statement Tuesday following Meghan Markle, the duchess of Sussex, and Prince Harry’s bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey. The interview, which aired Sunday night, was widely watched and included an allegation that a Royal Family member expressed concerns about the skin color of Markle’s future child.
“The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan,” announced Buckingham Palace in a statement released late Tuesday afternoon on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II. “The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning. While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately.”
