    Both parent then have A allele.

    Explanation:

    Albinism is considered a lack of melanin pigmentation.

    If the parents are pigmented and their child is an albino, those both parents seem to have the A allele. This is the recessive albinism, those parents are having albinism gene but neither of them have had albinism.

    Because of that, the child is going to have AA, both A alleles from each parent. Those parents are not having albinism but they have the gene mutation that can cause albinism.
