LONDON — A black British comedian has alleged that Prince Harry made racist comments last year.

The 24-year-old prince apologized last month for using a derogatory term to describe a fellow soldier of Pakistani origin.

He also apologized in 2005 for wearing a swastika armband to a party.

Comedian Stephen K. Amos told British television show `The Wright Stuff' the prince told him `You don't sound like a black chap' after a performance.

The comedian says the comment was made after he performed at a birthday party for Harry's father, Prince Charles, late last year.

Prince Harry's press office declined to comment on the allegations today.
