within the wider royal household, there has been a problem.atedly challenged this woman, ngozi fulani, a charity founder, to say where she and "her people" were really from. mandu reid was there when it happened. the interrogation really left myself, ngozi and the other woman who was with us in a state of shock and surprise. we had been made to feel that we weren't welcome. lady hussey had been a lady—in—waiting to queen elizabeth. unpaid, but an influential courtier in the innermost circle. lady susan hussey has been with the royal household for 60 years, so she's somebody who i think is actually quite a good barometer of what's going on, what the culture is within that institution. she's steeped in the culture of that institution. the palace moved swiftly to try to defuse the row with a public statement of apology. lady susan stepped back from official duties and, at a reconciliation meeting, apologised to ngozi fulani. both sides acknowledged no malice was intended. buckingham palace says: it says it's reviewed: in our poll, we asked if the
