Piers Morgan claims King Charles and Kate Middleton are the members of the royal family named in Omid Scobie’s “Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival” as the two “racist” royals who were concerned about the darkness of Prince Archie’s skin color.

The brash “Piers Morgan Uncensored” host made the statement Wednesday on the program after Scobie’s book was pulled off shelves in Holland on Tuesday because of the “royal racists” errorless being included in the Dutch version of it.

Not necessarily racist, maybe just curious.

As I recall the quotes they didn’t say anything racist.
If anything their comments were an insult to America. They tried to use the argument that police might shoot a black child raised in America. That is not a racist statement against blacks.

"King Charles and Kate Middleton"

They should both stand proud behind their comments.

Has anyone noticed that each time Meghan and her husband fall of the front pages of news-sites that something comes along to put the spotlight back on them?

That’s my position. If you don’t know, you’re going to ask.
It’s also a fact that many black babies darken a couple of weeks after being born. They are often born a lighter shade than they turn out to be when they grow up.

The author of the book has already backtracked on the accusations. Now claiming publishers made a mistake in the translation.

No different than wondering whose eyes and hair the child will have.

How did that info get into the Dutch version of the book...?

Inquiring minds want to know...

Scobie can try that.

This wasn’t a translation error, and the Dutch publisher has refused to call it one.

Yep, and US publishers are putting a hold on its release in US.

Most Dutch speak English almost as well as a native Englisman. There's no way they made a "translation error".

FWIW, just checked and it’s still available for sale in my Upstate NY neck of the woods, and the salesperson hadn’t heard anything about the publisher pulling the book.

The question about skin color is normal, and not racist. I remember the show The Jeffersons where his daughter married a white man. The whole show was about the skin color of the baby that was about to be born. Jefferson was elated when it came out brown. Evidently, that show and topic can’t be made today.

However, the commercials I see today, where it is always a white woman with a black man, and the children are a mixture of the two colors — it seems to be okay.

Saw something in DM about it. Heck 1\2 their UK edition is about that book. Will go back and check out the article again.
