JAKARTA - British Children's Minister Vicky Ford said there is no place for racism in British society. This was conveyed by her when asked for comments regarding Meghan Markle's statement.

In an interview on CBS television, Prince Harry's wife accused someone in the British royal family of raising concerns about how dark their son's skin was.

"There is absolutely no place for racism in our society", UK Children's Minister Vicky Ford told Sky News, as reported by Reuters, adding she had not seen the CBS interview.

Previously, Meghan Markle expressed concern about how dark her son Archie's skin before he was born. And, such worry explains why he was not given the title of prince.

Meghan, whose mother is black and whose father is white, said she was naive before marrying into the British Royal family in 2018. In fact, she had suicidal thoughts and considered self-harm, after asking for help but getting nothing.

"They don't want his to be a prince or a princess, not knowing what gender, which would be different from protocol, and that he won't accept security", said Prince Harry's wife in an interview with Oprah Winfrey on CBS on Sunday evening as reported by Reuters.

"In the months when I was pregnant, around the same time, so we had conversations together, you wouldn't be given security, wouldn't be given titles' and also worries and conversations about how dark his skin, maybe when he was born", said Meghan.

Meghan refused to say who told her this. When asked whether she chose to remain silent or because she was silenced, the answer was brief.

"The last one", she said.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have stepped down from royal duties. They decided to start a new life in the United States.
