The 58-year-old British talk show host addressed the controversy on Wednesday, openly naming King Charles and Kate Middleton as the royals expressing concerns about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's child's skin color.
In Omid Scobie's recently released book, 'Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival,' the names of the two royals were accidentally disclosed in the Dutch version.
Morgan clarified to his audience that, while he doesn't believe any racist comments were made by the royal family, he felt it was essential for British citizens, who financially support the royal family, to be informed.
He justified his actions, stating, "Frankly, if Dutch people wandering into a bookshop can pick it up and see these names, then you—the British people here, who actually pay for the British royal family—you're entitled to know, too."
I’m outraged too - that the rest of the British media hasn’t done the same! Why should British people be barred from knowing what Dutch people know about OUR Royal Family? pic.twitter.com/OmlAaQcVYy
