The Sentebale fundraiser event was where the Prince made his emotional speech about his decision to step back from his role as a senior member of the royal family in January 2020.
Harry went on to explain that he asked the person at the event to elaborate, to which the anonymous person told the Duke of Sussex the UK is “very bigoted”.
The Prince said he was surprised and insisted the “UK is not bigoted” but “the UK press is bigoted”.
Meghan Markle’s husband explained how the unknown person reiterated his point to which Harry disagreed with.
He added: “But, unfortunately, if the source of information is inherently corrupt or racist or biased then that filters out the rest of society.”
It comes after Meghan Markle revealed there were “concerns” amongst someone in the Royal Family about the colour of her son's Archie's skin.
During the interview, the Duchess of Sussex explained that her son, who was yet to be born at the time, would “not be a prince or princess” and he “wasn’t going to receive security”, which is different from royal protocol.
Both Meghan and Harry refused to name the person who raised the “concerns” about the colour of their child’s skin.
