London (AP) - Prince William has rejected the racism allegations made against the British royal family by his brother Prince Harry and his wife Meghan.

"We are not a racist family," said the 38-year-old on Thursday when visiting a school in London.

He has not spoken to his brother since the interview broadcast on Sunday evening (US local time), William said when asked by reporters.

"But I'll do that."

Meghan (39) and Harry (36) had accused the royal family of a lack of support and racist mind games in their revelatory interview with US presenter Oprah Winfrey.

So it was in the royal family before the birth of their son Archie, how dark his skin color would be.

Meghan is the first member of the family with African American roots, her mother is black.
