In March 2021, Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan sat with the well-known US talk show host Oprah Winfrey. Among other things, they talked about how, while pregnant with their first child, a member of the royal family asked them “how dark his skin might be when he’s born.” The Sussex couple and the host of the interview found this question to be racist. At the time, Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan did not say who had asked them this question, only that they made it clear that it was not the Queen or her husband Prince Philip.
New details about this case have emerged in recent days. The royal expert and Sussex confidant, Omid Scobie, is publishing a new book on November 28th entitled “Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival” for which he is now promoting the drum and publishing excerpts in advance gives an interview. Included in the advance information: the so-called racism scandal at the royal court and a precarious situation between Prince Harry and his father.
The book states that Duchess Meghan confided in Prince Charles about this issue and told him that there were two people who were inappropriately interested in the color of their unborn son’s skin. The second person should not be a direct royal member, but should come from the close environment. However, the two accused are not named by name in Scobie’s new release. Although he claims to know who it is about, he still keeps it to himself for legal reasons.
Another preliminary story revolves around the eviction of the Frogmore Cottage. The small house was the British residence of the Sussexes. It is owned by the royal family and was made available for rent to Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan for the wedding of Queen Elizabeth II. But shortly after the publication of Harry’s memoir “Spare” at the beginning of 2023, that all came to an end. The couple, who had emigrated to America years ago, were supposed to vacate the small cottage.
Omid Scobie claims that Prince Harry then argued with his father, King Charles III, and even resorted to emotional blackmail: “Do you never want to see your grandchildren again?” he is said to have said, according to the book. Scobie gives further details in his book about how King Charles distanced himself from his son. He also allegedly declined a personal meeting with him at the beginning of the year.
“Endgame” is intended to portray King Charles as unpopular and Prince William as greedy for power. However, the Sussexes are said to be distancing themselves from the latest work and claiming that they have nothing to do with it. So far, however, Scobie has been considered a close confidant and a kind of mouthpiece for the exiting couple.
