Meghan Markle wrote to King Charles about racism within royal family

Meghan Markle took her concerns about racism within the royal family to King Charles III, penning her father-in-law a letter after the bombshell 2021 interview she and Prince Harry did with Oprah Winfrey, a report claims just days after it was announced the Duchess of Sussex would skip his May 6 coronation.

A source told The Telegraph that the Duchess of Sussex shared her belief that a senior royal was prejudiced toward her in her missive to Charles — after the exiled royals had already revealed that there were “concerns and conversations” about the color of their unborn son’s skin.

The couple also told Oprah that while still pregnant with Archie, the “Suits” alum was told her son wouldn’t have a royal title and that they wouldn’t be entitled to security.

King Charles, then the Prince of Wales, wrote to the Duke and Duchess expressing his “deep concern” and disappointment they made such high-profile and damaging allegations, the source said.

He reportedly felt “let down” by his son and daughter-in-law, who he had supported “more than he would care to say.”

In her response letter, Meghan identified the royal who she claimed made the racist remarks but stated she never intended to specifically accuse them of being racist, only to raise concerns about unconscious bias. 

The correspondence was sent “warm in tone,” but did not ease tensions between the in-laws that would only continue to grow in the months before the release of Netflix’s “Harry & Meghan” documentary and Prince Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” each riddled with family secrets.

“Yes, there was correspondence, there were letters back and forth from the Duchess of Sussex to the king,” a source confirmed to Page Six Friday.

“But she’s moved on, this was two years ago, it has nothing to do with her decision not to attend the coronation,” the source insisted.

The duo later backpedaled and claimed they never accused their family of being racist.

In spite of the exchange, Meghan reportedly feels that her racism concerns — as well as complaints that she was bullied and neglected by the institution to the point of suicidal ideation — have not been resolved.

The Telegraph reported that Meghan “does not hold a grudge” over the prejudice ordeal, despite it playing a factor in her choice to skip the May 6 Coronation. The Duchess also opted to remain in California in order to be with Archie on his 4th birthday and to avoid the inevitable criticism the British press would spew.

The royal family is reportedly “delighted” that Prince Harry is attending the ceremony without his wife.

Experts expect the Duke to be given the cold shoulder by his family upon arriving.

Prince Harry will play no part in his father’s historic ceremony — King Charles completely wrote his son out of the program after portions of his itinerary memorial were leaked in January.

In a major break from tradition, King Charles will only allow Prince William to perform a traditional role.
