Prince Harry’s shocking admission and apology over racist slur before meeting Meghan

Prince Harry once said he was “bigoted” before meeting his wife, Meghan Markle, adding that he was “naive” about how her ethnicity would affect the public eye during their relationship.

Ahead of the release of his memoir, Spare, last year, the Duke of Sussex opened up about his behaviour to US broadcaster CBS.

He said: “I went into this incredibly naive. I had no idea the British press were so bigoted. Hell, I was probably bigoted before the relationship with Meghan.”

The interviewer, Anderson Cooper, then asked: “You think you were bigoted before the relationship with Meghan?”

To which Harry replied: “I don’t know. Put it this way, I didn’t see what I now see.”
