“Harry talked to his brother and he talked to his father too. The word they gave me was that these conversations were not productive. But they are happy that they at least started a conversation,” said King in Tuesday’s issue of ” This morning. ”
During the couple’s interview with Winfrey, Harry said that his relationship with the two had practically broken – admitting that he rarely spoke to William and that Charles, his father and heir to the British throne, stopped answering his calls at one point.
King also suggested that the two were disappointed by Buckingham Palace’s response to the interview.
“I think what still worries them is that the palace keeps saying that they want to resolve this in particular … but they still believe that false stories are coming up and that they are still very disparaging against Meghan,” she said.
“Nobody of the royal family talked to Meghan at this specific moment and I think it’s frustrating for them to see that it’s a racial conversation about the royal family when all they wanted all the time was for the royalty to intervene and tell the press to stop the fake stories unfair and inaccurate that definitely have a racial bias, “added King.
The presenter also said that Harry and Meghan want to “move on” and see the “healing of this family”.
The Harry and Meghan interview left Buckingham Palace screwed up and sparked a national debate about royalty, race and the role of the media in perpetuating xenophobia.
Asked by a reporter during a visit to a school in East London last week if the royalty was a “racist family”, the Duke of Cambridge said: “We are not a racist family”.
In response to a question about whether he had spoken to his brother since the interview with Oprah Winfrey, Prince William said, “I haven’t spoken to him yet, but I will.”
