"If the Markles [sic] have the nerve to make the accusation of racism, then they should be willing to name names."

I'm not too sure about this. Don't forget that the skin colour remark was made in private. Whilst I don't doubt that the comment was made in Harry's presence, the context is not known. It's hard to imagine a context in which a comment like that to a prospective father wouldn't be offensive, but hey ho. And let's not forget, by the way, that Harry has been the victim down the years of completely unjustified and publicly-shouted doubts about whether he is actually Charles' son, specifically using his hair colour as "evidence." Ring a bell? Exposing the remark without naming a name puts the ball into the royal family's court. It's up to them to meet the racism accusation, and we know that there is form. Naming a name could result in court action for slander. His word against the alleged culprit with no ability to bring substantial evidence. Counter-productive, I would think.
