The Queen and Prince Phillip were not involved in ‘racist’ conversations about Archie’s skin colour, Oprah Winfrey has confirmed.
Both the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry refused to identify who made the remarks during their tell-all interview.
Harry said: “That conversation, I am never going to share.

“At the time it was awkward, I was a bit shocked.”
However, Oprah has now insisted it was not The Queen or her husband.
Appearing on CBS This Morning, she said: “He did not share the identity with me.
“But he wanted to make sure that I knew, and if I had an opportunity to share it, that it was not his grandmother, nor his grandfather, that were a part of those conversations.”
The Palace has not responded to the claims or made any comments about the rest of the interview.
Elsewhere in the chat, Harry claimed racism was a ‘large part’ of why they left the UK.
He claimed a friend warned him that he needed to be careful about his attitude towards the press and told him he needed to understand that ‘the UK is very bigoted’.
However, the Prince insisted it is not, the press is.
He said: “The UK is not bigoted, the UK press is bigoted, specifically the tabloids.
“But, unfortunately, if the source of information is inherently corrupt or racist or biased then that filters out to the rest of society.”
The full interview will air on ITV at 9 pm on Monday.
