Prince Harry is embroiled in a new race row. He allegedly told a comic he didn’t “sound like a black chap.” He is said to have made the comment to Stephen K. Amos after the black funnyman performed a stand-up show for Prince Charles’ 60th birthday last year. Stephen told The Wright Stuff on TV’s Five yesterday that Harry, 24, congratulated him before saying: “You don’t sound like a black chap.” Stephen added: “I wanted to say, ‘How is I supposed to sound?’”

The gaffe comes a month after Prince Harry was forced to apologize to an Asian soldier he called a “Paki.” He also sparked disgust in 2005 by wearing a Nazi uniform. Talk about a serious lack of sensitivity. Someone ought to teach this man about being tactful. If you ask me, Prince Harry is a royal pain.
