Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, and husband Prince Harry had their team contact the BBC to tell them to make sure panels discussing their tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey were not populated by “old white men”, according to reports.
A public relations staffer from the couple’s Beverly Hills-based company, Archewell — their earlier ‘Sussex Royal’ brand had to be scrapped after the Queen ruled it could not profit so directly from their royal connections — contacted the British broadcaster telling them to ensure a “broad range of contributors” were used for any post-mortem examination of their sit-down with the talk show host, in which Meghan complained her son was not made a prince and alleged that racially-charged remarks were made about him, among other things.
