People quickly noticed the racist undertone in his tweet suggesting it was directed to Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, whose mother is an African American. His tweet came on the same day she posed with her grandson - Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. 

This is not the first time Baker's in trouble. BBC Radio 5 dropped his show because it was alleged he had incited threatening behavior after a referee awarded a controversial penalty in FA cup.
