Piers Morgan Continues Talking About The “Royal Racists,” Saga but He’s Making No Sense

Host Piers Morgan named the royals accused of making racist comments about Meghan and Harry's babies in "endgame." But says no one in family is racist.

Itโ€™s been more than two years since the infamous Oprah Winfrey sit-down with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, in which the couple shared that a royal family member made comments about the skin color of the coupleโ€™s future son, Archie. Markle shared during the interview that there were โ€œconcerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when heโ€™s born.โ€

Despite attempts by the rest of the royal family to prove that they werenโ€™t racist, speculation abounded about who might have made those comments. For many, it wasnโ€™t hard to believe that a family with deep ties to colonialism might also be harboring some racists.

Years later, it appears that the name of the offending royal has been revealed in an unexpected manner: According to CNN, a new book detailing the sordid lives of the British Royals has been pulled off the shelves in the Netherlands.

The Dutch translation of the book โ€œEndgameโ€ by Omid Scobie reportedly included a passage left out of the English translation. The Dutch translation of the book reportedly includes the name of the royal who made comments about baby Archieโ€™s skin during Markleโ€™s pregnancy. The bookโ€™s publisher told the Daily Mail that it received a last-minute request to pull the book from the shelves.

So who were those royals. Well, according to Piers Morgan they were Princess Kate Middleton and King Charles.

โ€œThe royals who were named in this book are King Charles and Catherine, Princess of Wales,โ€ said Morgan on his show. โ€œI donโ€™t believe any racist comments were ever made by any of the royal family, and until there is actual evidence of those comments being made, I will never believe it.โ€

So, far both Harry and Markle are staying radio-silent. However, Morgan has continued to defend the royals, despite being the one to out them. โ€œWhat racism? Whereโ€™s the racism,โ€ shouted Morgan at a Black guest on his show.

The host then proceeded to complain about the Oprah interview. โ€œHow could you pour more hatred over people than these two who for four years have poured hatred on their family and the monarchy and did it by sparking a racism row on Oprah Winfrey in front of 50 million people where they made allegations of racism and tried to pretend they hadnโ€™t. Theyโ€™ve never produced any evidence.โ€

Clearly heโ€™s not over the Oprah interview or his obsession with Markle.
