Definitely tell them if they ask. It's true that honesty hurts and they might not like the answer you give. They might get mad or upset. And it might not be pleasant for you to deal with that. But always honesty first. Because if they find out you were lying, it would be so much worse.
I know that if I ask my boyfriend something, even though I may want to hear something in particular, I still want the truth back. If it's something I don't like to hear, I'll have to deal with it. Maybe he'll have to reassure me or something. But not telling the truth leads to mistrust and feelings of insecurity and betrayal.

Personally i wouldnt unless specifically asked.To be honest its not really neccessary information.Also it would sound abit odd ' my ex...oh by the way shes black/white' From my point of view i wouldnt really care about my bf's ex gf's race/religion. I care if she was a super hot supermodel tho! lol :)
