Laurence Fox ‘dumped by mixed race girlfriend’ after Question Time row over Meghan Markle

metro.co.uk:

Laurence Fox was dumped by his mixed race girlfriend in the fallout of his rant about racism on Question Time earlier this year.  The Lewis actor sparked an almighty race row in January when he weighed into the debate about Meghan Markle and systemic racism in the UK.

During his appearance on the show, Laurence clashed with an audience member and said it was ‘racist’ for him to be described as a ‘white privileged male’ and that he was ‘bored’ of people ‘throwing the race card’ around.

In an interview with the Sunday Times, Laurence reveals that he was dating a mixed race woman at the time of the controversy, but she dumped him immediately after in light of his comments.
