Now, Prince William has broken his silence regarding the claims. During an appearance at School 21 in London, a reported asked if the Royal Family was racist, to which the Duke of Cambridge replied: “We are very much not a racist family.”

When the future King was also asked if he had spoken to his brother since the interview aired, he confirmed: “No, I haven’t spoken to him yet, but I will do.”

The highly-anticipated tell-all chat with Oprah saw the Duke and Duchess of Sussex recount their experience within the British Royal Family and explain what drove them to step away.

The pair mentioned issues surrounding race, security, and a lack of support from the family when lies about Meghan were spread by the press. The Duchess also revealed she suffered a severe battle with her mental health, and even experienced suicidal thoughts.

During the Duke and Duchess’s sit down with Oprah, Meghan said there had been “concerns and conversations about how dark [baby Archie’s] skin might be when he’s born.”
