Piers Morgan called Prince Harry and Meghan Markle “cowardly” on Monday because they made allegations of racism against the British royal family without naming individuals by name.
During the couple’s interview with Oprah Winfrey, which aired Sunday night, Markle claims that there are ‘concerns and conversations about how dark’ their son Archie’s skin may be ‘when he was born’. Markle added that her husband told her about the conversations, saying “these were conversations the family had with him.”
“It’s pretty cowardly of them not to say who said it, and then to make everyone look guilty through association,” Morgan told Martha MacCallum on The Story yesterday. ‘You know, they apparently said now via Oprah, it was not the queen [Elizabeth II] of Prince Philip. Well, who was that?
‘Because the people do it [they’re] to sit here in the frame is possibly the next king of England [Prince Charles], and his heir [Prince] William, “he added.” And I just think these are very serious allegations. If you are going to make it, name the person who said it, and let that person defend himself. ‘

“What she says, which is even more treacherous, is that the decision that Archie was a prince was actually made because of his skin color,” Morgan said. “The only person who makes decisions about titles in the royal family is the queen.”
‘So what Meghan Markle is saying is [that] the queen is a racist, “he added. And that is a disgusting and untrue allegation. “
