The sentence below is taken from a British newspaper. Do you find the use of "her" correct or should the reporter have used "hers"?

Prince Charles is caught up in a racism row after a woman said he joked about her not looking like she came from Manchester.

Thank you

@paok1970,
Why do you think it should be 'hers', paok?
