Of course more of the obituaries are leaving that out and bending words to avoid that... examples I've seen:
(Source: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Sg_lsY_Y-RoED3IjAjZR...)
- "with off-the-cuff remarks that were called oblivious, insensitive or worse."
- "The duke could be blunt and outspoken to the point of offensiveness"
- "his unfiltered remarks and attempts at humor became legendary for their bad taste"
- "known for off-the-cuff remarks that often displayed a quick wit"
- "was known for his seemingly tactless, off-the-cuff remarks."
- "...many times with cringe-worthy remarks that bent the bounds of humor."
- "... emitting intermittent and much-reported gaffes"
- "...published a list of 90 of his notorious gaffes"
- "he has been criticized for his gaffes and insensitive jokes"
Though Daily Beast, NBC News, and Huff Post said it properly:
- "Philip will also be remembered for his outrageous sexist and racist comments."
- "...a reputation for the occasional brusque comment and crass, if not racist jokes."
- "infamous for his sometimes controversial and racist remarks during royal visits."
