Meghan Markle Wrote A Letter To King Charles In 2021
Just a year after Meghan Markle and Prince Harry stepped down from their royal duties, she wrote a letter to King Charles. According to Page Six, Meghan named the racist senior Royal family member in it.
He was the same person who had speculated about her son Archie’s skin color. “Yes, there was correspondence, there were letters back and forth from the Duchess of Sussex to the king,” a source said.
It added: “But she’s moved on, this was two years ago, it has nothing to do with her decision not to attend the coronation.” This revelation could impact Royal’s reputation who are gearing up for Charles’ coronation.
Meghan first talked about this incident during the 2021 Oprah interview and it resulted in an uproar. Palace insiders around that time refuted the names of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.

Prince Harry Accused The Royals Of “Unconscious Bias”
During the 2021 Oprah interview, Meghan said that “several conversations” took place between Harry and the unnamed royal member. She was asked to name that particular racist individual.
In response, she said: “I think that would be very damaging to them.” Harry also commented on the matter. “It was awkward. I was a bit shocked,” he said.
While promoting his much-talked-about memoir ‘Spare‘, Harry said that he has never accused his family of racism but stated they are guilty of “unconscious bias.” On the other hand, Harry will be attending the coronation event while Meghan will stay in the US with their children.
