KING Charles' "real feelings" about Meghan Markle's "royal racist" claim was revealed in a letter, a bombshell book claims.

A new book by Harry and Meghan's friend Omid Scobie goes into detail about letters between the then-Prince of Wales and Meghan.
Royal author Scobie's new book Endgame claims Meghan named not one but two members of the royal household who she says took part in the "conversations" about Archie's colour, The Sun has revealed.
She is reported to have made the claims in private letters to Charles in spring 2021, following Harry and Meghan's Oprah interview.
Endgame will say the duchess believed “unconscious bias and ignorance” inside the royal family must be tackled.

And leaked extracts show Charles wrote back to his daughter-in-law, insisting he wanted to clear up "something he felt strongly about".
He is said to have made a point of expressing he felt "no ill will" nor "casual prejudice" had been involved in any discussions about Archie.
Meghan had told Oprah in March 2021 that the comments causing concern came up during "several conversations".
She declined to identify anyone, saying: "I think that would be very damaging to them."

Harry has denied the couple accused anyone in the royal family of "racism", while he was promoting his book Spare this year.
But he did suggest there had been "unconscious bias".
Scobie previously wrote a biography of Harry and Meghan two years ago, Finding Freedom.
He has been dubbed "Meghan's Cheerleader" and, despite claims the Sussexes did not help him with that first book, a High Court case last year was told they did brief favourable stories via an aide.
The new book also claims Harry made a cutting remark to his father when he and Meghan had been made to quit their Frogmore Cottage home in Windsor.
The duke allegedly asked Charles: "Don't you want to see your grandchildren anymore?"
The King had told the couple to give back the keys to Frogmore Cottage days after Spare was published.
