Meghan would never have even known of it, had Prince Harry not told her.
However it would seem, so concerned was HE, only him, that he felt he needed to alert Meghan later, that such thinking was within the Royal set up

It's an inappropriate question and statement at the very least and at worst it has come from a prejudicial racist view too.
Dont forget this is the Harry who thought that The Nazis were funny and called someone a "little p*k*" (a man from Pakistan)

SO lets just agree he isnt the most reliable person to judge on racism

To give the comment some much needed context... it was directed at one of his very good friends Ahmed Raza Khan .

A spokesman for Britain's royal family said there had been no racist intent in Harry's words.

"Prince Harry fully understands how offensive this term (****) can be, and is extremely sorry for any offence his words might cause," the spokesman said.
"However, on this occasion Prince Harry used the term without any malice and as a nickname about a highly popular member of his platoon.”

"There is no question that Prince Harry was in any way seeking to insult his friend."


In May, Harry was awarded a military service medal for 10 weeks of frontline service in Afghanistan whilst Ahmed Raza Khan has since distinguished himself as a soldier of astonishing courage under fire by saving wounded colleagues, despite being shot in a Taliban ambush.
