Exactly.
HOWEVER she wasn't who it was said to.
Both stated that clearly.

It was said directly to Prince Harry.
Whoever then learned about the inappropriate in any circumstances comment, only then learned it from Prince Harry, as he's the one it was said to.

Then he told and alerted Meghan to it.

So she can't be making it up.
No matter how much others would wish that was so.

The poll is inaccurate and misleading.

This was one of the many examples of bias interviewing that took place. When these comments were made WHY didnt Oprah ask Harry how he dealt with it? what did he say in response?....but no it was just left there as an accusation leaving everyone to speculate.

no one said "and how it may effect (sic) the royal institution."

that is incorrect information

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.

even the most basic journalist would have followed it up with

"what did you say at that time?"

"in what context did this arise?"

The aim was to troll, sensationalise and to get headlines

using racism as a pawn in their quest for fame and money

Wasn't Harry himself accused of racism when he made a remark about a soldier ? this has been kept quiet, but was said on morning TV, so why is no one concerned about that but are having tantrums over someone saying something that maybe have just been curiosity,I did Google it after I found out and yes there are lots of links to what he said,can you imagine if someone said similar to Megan,Im all for stamping it out but lets gets real,he is not totally squeaky clean where this sort of thing is thrown out, as much as I like him,I do think the telling the world what was said then saying he wasnt going to say who it was, is pointless .

TO

"I'm concerned by how dark Archie will come out "


Non of us know how it was said ,but out of those examples I've given it's crystal which one is uncalled for.

Nobody said Harry was squeaky clean, you know what's funny is people putting fickle labels on him.

Remember when Harry's character was the narrative of

"poor lad getting bullied under the thumb by Meghan,who can't think for himself" .

But now that people want to call him a liar and a hypocrite, suddenly he's

"a racist pot stirrer who's throwing his family under the bus"


Interesting how when the narrative was

"poor Harry poor Harry " & "evil Meghan look what she's doing to him"

nobody said anything about his past then hmm fascinating really .

Harry has always made mistakes in his younger years,and he was always a wild child. He's clearly matured and grown . He's a dad now and he wants to protect his family.

Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth II are not seeing eye to eye in terms of the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle interview with Oprah Winfrey that has sent tremours down Buckingham Palace.

As per Us Weekly, the mother-son have approaches that are poles apart in regards to how they should be tackling the royal crisis at hand.

An insider revealed to the portal: “Charles and the Queen had very different plans for how to respond. Charles wanted to rebuke every claim made by Meghan and Harry and the Queen wanted to take a more modest approach.”

The grapevine further shared that the 72-year-old Prince of Wales “especially wanted to make a statement against the allegation that someone in the royal family was worried about how dark Archie’s skin would be” but he was “overruled by other members of the family.”
