The Palace issued a statement on the claims, saying they would be taken “very seriously” and “addressed by the family privately”.
Last week, Prince William broke his silence on the interview and insisted the royal family is “very much not racist”.
Meanwhile, last week, Piers quit GMB after sparking a backlash for his comments on Meghan and Harry’s Oprah tell-all.
Reports claim the couple complained to TV watchdog Ofcom about Piers’ remarks.
Meanwhile, following his departure, Piers stood by his comments and said he didn’t believe a word Meghan said.

“I’ve had time to reflect on this opinion, and I still don’t. If you did, that’s OK. Freedom of speech is a hill I’m happy to die on.”
In addition, he added: “Thanks for all the love, and hate. I’m off to spend more time with my opinions.”
