It was simply curiosity that has been turned into a Racist comment….later backtracked by Harry.
Maybe it's just me, but I have never heard anyone try and guess the skin tone of a child before.

I'm used to hair colour or eye colour, but never skin tone.

I have.
We have a few generations of mixed race in our family.
My daughter’s partner is mixed race.
I don’t think it’s any different wondering how the babies will look, hair, eyes, who they resemble etc.

Fair enough.

I suppose it depends on how it's being said I suppose.

It's just I've personally never heard of this kind of conversation before, so to me it is a bit odd.

I know quite a few different race couples and they all wondered what skin tone their babies would have. There is nothing odd about it, it's perfectly normal and no different from wondering what colour eyes or hair etc, as others have already said.

Your scenario/s are entirely different to the toxic one we’re discussing though

It’s like he’s deliberately missing out the bit where they were concerned.

Well the conversation was with Harry…if anyone had said they were “concerned about the colour of Archie’s skin”…Harry would have addressed it…he has never claimed the conversation was Racial in fact he has denied it….it was only Meghan that implied it was racial and she wasn’t even there…pick the bones out of that.

Where was it said that concern was expressed?
