Lady Susan Hussey repeatedly asked about Ngozi Fulani's background at the event, asking where in Africa she came from, leaving Ms Fulani feeling insulted as she explained she is British.
Lady Susan, who was a member of the Buckingham Palace household, resigned and apologised over "unacceptable and regrettable comments" made at a reception held by the Queen Consort.
Ms Fulani, CEO of Hackney charity Sistah Space, a group that supports African and Caribbean women affected by domestic and sexual abuse, said she had suffered "trauma" and "damage" after being "invited and then insulted" at the event.
And speaking to LBC on Wednesday, she revealed nobody at the Palace had spoken to her about the incident.
The Palace said it had reached out to her and Prince William said there was no room for racism in society.
Ms Fulani told LBC's Shelagh Fogarty the whole experience was "slow" and "painful" and she "just wanted it to end".

She should have asked her if she was from Wakanda.
You forgot the nasty looking rastafarian dreads. That screams carribean.. you can see them close up in the video. Some of them look fake
She was just begging to be asked about her heritage in that get-up.
That hair.......where did she think she
was going.......to a native pow-wow?
I think most of those are fake African names.
Her family name was Headley when she was born and became Fulani at some point, and she was wearing a leopard print sequined dress, a bone necklace, snake-like dreadlocks and a headdress.
Her exotic name and appearance might well have led someone to think she was an immigrant.
“Ngozi Fulani “
The “g,” z”,” “i,” “l,” “a,” and “i” are silent.
“N_o__ Fu__n_”
Cute........lol.
Her charity is dedicated to helping women who’ve come to England from Africa. Why is it unreasonable to think she came from Africa?
I have to admit I’m suspicious of her connection to H&M and their jealousy of William and Kate. Given the timing of Harry’s big trip to Boston, it seems that it might be a setup to explain that Meghan’s award for confronting the “racist” Royal Family is really deserved, and not just something she got by some appropriate donation or connection to increase the revenue of the donor organization, or just by the fact that it’s the woke celebrating the woke.
Good point. I never thought of the Markle connection.
I know, right? That’s just terrible and inappropriate. I can’t believe she bought that ugly wig.
She looks like she shaved her hairline in some kind of weird native ritual.
She was going to Buckingham Palace, for God sake.
Notice that they always drag you down to their level.
They never rise to the occasion.
With a traditional Scottish year name like Fulani, her ancestral origins should have been obvious
Let's try a different country and ethnicity. Suppose the lady were talking with an American named Ms. McAllister.
Where do you come from?"
"We're based in New York," said Ms McAllister.
"No, what part of Ireland are you from?" the staff member is said to have asked.
"I don’t know, they didn't leave any records."
"Well you must know where you’re from, I spent time in France. Where are you from?"
"Here, the United States," said Ms McAllister.
"No but what nationality are you?"
"I am born here and am American."
"No, but where do you really come from, where do your people come from?"
"'My people', lady, what is this?"
"Oh I can see I am going to have a challenge getting you to say where you’re from. When did you first come here?"
"Lady! I am American, my parents came here in the 50's when…"
"Oh I knew we'd get there in the end, you're Irish!"
"No, lady, I am of Irish heritage... and American nationality."
Then, suppose Ms. McAllister announced she was suffering from shock and trauma because this conversation was offensive to her.
Who wouldn't think Ms. McAllister was being ridiculous?
Cowards die many times before their deaths...
“spending time as a couple” with posed photos of her crying dramatically. Timing is everything. Don’t I remember that there were accusations during W&K’s first major tour?
