'Black Employee' Spotted Next to Prince William Sparks Online Debate Over Claims of Royal Racism

Taking note of a black lady seen walking with Prince William, some social media users claimed it is the first time they’ve seen “black folks around the royal family.”

Prince William’s response to a question linked to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent TV interview has attracted quite a bit of attention online, and apparently not just because of what he said.

While the Duke of Cambridge was visiting a school in east London on 11 March, a reporter asked him “Is the Royal Family a racist family, sir?”

​While the video of this exchange, tweeted by BBC Breaking News, did the rounds on social media, many users have focused their attention on “the black employee” accompanying the royal.

​Some even claimed that they haven’t seen “black folks around the royal family” and have questioned if the presence of the black lady was an attempt to dispel allegations of racism.

During a CBS interview with Oprah Winfrey aired on Sunday, Markle alleged that during her pregnancy, there here had been “concerns” within the royal family about “how dark” her son Archie’s skin would be.

Meghan, however, did not disclose the identity of whoever allegedly expressed the concerns, saying it “would be very damaging to them,” adding that she learned about the conversation through Prince Harry.
