Whoopi Goldberg has joined the chorus of people calling on the royal family to apologize for their colonial past, insisting that the crown cannot ‘ignore the fact that Britain ran roughshod over India for years’ - just one month after she was suspended from her ABC talk show The View for saying that the ‘Holocaust wasn’t racist’.
The 66-year-old Sister Act actress, who is based in New York City, was discussing the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s tour of the Caribbean during The View on Thursday when she hit out at the monarchy.
Whoopi, who has previously described her ‘close’ relationship with Prince Harry on the show, said that the modern royal family needs to apologize for its imperialist past and the British empire’s links to slavery, saying the crown ‘ran ram shod’ over India for years and needs to take responsibility for its colonial past.
The actress, who has long been a vocal supporter of Meghan Markle, has previously questioned whether the Queen was ‘in touch’ with royal issues after the Sussexes’ explosive Oprah interview. She also said watching the Duchess confess she ‘was not okay’ in the ITV documentary Harry and Meghan: An African Journey was ‘tough.’
Her comments come after Prince William, 39, delivered a heartfelt speech where he described Britain’s historic role in the slave trade as ‘abhorrent’ and a ‘stain on our history’ in a keynote speech alongside his wife at a state dinner on Wednesday night in Jamaica.
Whoopi Goldberg —— HERO OF THE STUPID!
The stupid women who watch her “View” lose a few IQ points each time they watch.
She seems to be pretty full of herself. Hey Whoopi, no-one gives a whoop about what you want.
Dipshit!
