“If I eat avocado, I’m an environmental destroyer”… Markle’s revelation

Another suspicion was raised that the British royal family had racially discriminated against American mixed-race Princess Meghan Markle, 39. This time, it is argued that the royal family responded with discrimination from other family members as the royal family consistently responded to indiscriminate reports by the media to Markle.

On the 8th (local time), in an exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey, additionally aired by CBS in the United States, Markle said that he had been discriminated against by the British media and the royal family.

He compared the British press to the’Wild West’, a lawless western era, saying, “My news was treated as noise, and negative content about me spread like a flame.” He said, “The royal family had a media response department, but for our couple, it was unfamiliar.”

In particular, unlike Kate Middleton’s son-in-law, King Se Son-bin said that harsh reports were poured out only on himself. “If Middleton eats avocado, he is praised, but if I eat it, he becomes an’environmental destroyer’,” he said. “Some of the royal family will comfortably say,’We have to endure all rudeness.’ But rudeness and racism are not the same. “I pinched.

Prince Harry also complained about the media. In particular, he claimed that although his wife suffered invasion of privacy and various personal attacks by tabloid newspapers, no one in the royal family raised the issue. The family, who should serve as a shield, treated Markle as an invisible person.

“That was a big part,” he said to Winfrey’s question of whether he left England because of racism. “If the royal family admitted racism against Markle, the situation would have changed dramatically.”

Signs of solidarity among black American women

British society is also fluctuating over the revelations of Prince Harry and his wife. “The royal family is on the way to the worst-case scenario,” said Johnny Dimond, the BBC’s royal court reporter.

However, according to local media, British public opinion is cold. On the day, Sky News of the UK reported that out of 2111 adults, 47% of the couples’ interviews were inappropriate, more than double the response. 33% also said they could not relate.

British politics seem to be conscious of the royal family. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson avoided answering questions about the conflict between Prince Harry and the royal family on that day, saying, “I haven’t talked about the royal affairs for a long time.” “Racial discrimination is a very serious problem,” said Kier Starmer, the leader of the No. 1 opposition party, the Labor Party. The British royal family hasn’t made much of a stance until dawn on the 9th.

On the other hand, public opinion about Markle is pouring out around the world. According to the Associated Press, the interview, which was released through CBS on the 7th, was watched live by 17 million people in the United States alone. Immediately after the broadcast, various social media articles were poured out in support of the Prince Harry and his wife and criticizing the British royal family.

CNN reported that there was even a movement to re-initiate the’Black Lives Matter’ (BLM) movement by solidarity between black American women in the racist treatment that Markle suffered in the royal family. “The royal family missed the greatest opportunity for change, reform, and reconciliation in a new era,” said Amanda Gorman, who recited her inauguration at US President Joe Biden’s inauguration ceremony. They didn’t just ignore Markle’s light; I missed it,” he pointed out.
