It wasn't an appropriate line of questioning but intention is important here. She clearly felt the repeated questioning was acceptable in finding out another individuals heritage and the fact she is from another generation probably played into this unintended offence. I don't think she has tried to be racist or offensive, just curious.
However, I do feel Fulani was far too quick to go to the media around this issue. I imagine she was only slightly offended but the consequence of that is we have a long standing servant of the crown branded a racist, forced to resign and her name is smeared by every media outlet in the country. A quiet chat in the ear of a senior palace official could have lead to a much better outcome for all involved. She could have even offered to teach her about why it was inappropriate.
I do wonder how much money Fulani was given for publicising the remarks.

Sorry about the quality Leics but it tested my minimal cut and paste knowledge. The charity is called Sistah Space of which she is the sole employee. According to the report she paid herself 65k last year but there was was 140k of income unaccounted for. They have also been fined for not producing audited accounts on time as well.
The problem is that you don't know what to believe these days. Having said the that, I have to admit that the whole thing sounds dodgy to me. It obviously needs the authorities to look into it.
Fulani isn't even her real name
Who gives a f uck what an old lady said to be honest. Many old people are blinkered with their views but it’s how they grew up, I know a lady who is 85 and turns the television off if a black person comes on. She’s certainly not a vocal racist and that’s just her way albeit totally out of touch and wrong. She’s harmless though and actually a nice old dear!
I would rather have 10,000 Lady Hussey’s than Harry and Meghan who are trashing the Royal Family to make millions for their own back pockets ! Let’s put this into perspective! Meghan mentioned she was offended due to the N word! What a deceitful woman - she does not even look the slightest bit black and more Hispanic if anything! Yeah right - she was really offended but not offended enough to now make millions by trashing the royal family!
As Regis said and agreed - I also have no time for any kind of hatred or racist abuse - it’s cruel and disgusting! That said things like taking the knee and rainbow laces are laughable - a complete joke in a sporting event!
The England team took the knee against the USA which came over to the U.K. in support of a dangerous crack head who pointed a gun at a pregnant woman. The irony of this was the USA team did not take the knee. All the millions watching in the USA seeng the England team take the knee and not their own country must have thought - what a bunch of clowns!
We now hear about a migrant who died in the U.K. and all hell breaks loose. Was this person not in a tent in mud puddles in France? What about hundreds of deaths daily in Ukraine of people executed and thrown in shallow graves or young girls raped! Does this not matter? But we hear about that poor migrant instead FFS!!
