During an interview for his upcoming book The Uncomfortable Truth About Racism, he added: "I'm not a big fan of theirs.

John Barnes went on to say: "A lot of black people I know aren't. The problem now is that if you don't like her, people will call you a racist when it's got nothing to do with that.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, during their bombshell interview made claims about their son's skin colour , saying a senior royal allegedly focused on Archie's skin colour before his birth.
