Prince William and King Charles have come under fire in a scathing new book by author Omid Scobie, a friend of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The book, titled Endgame, takes a deep dive into the state of the British monarchy and makes some shocking claims about the royal family.
According to Scobie, Prince William is dubbed power hungry and King Charles is labeled as unpopular. The book alleges that the relationship between William and his younger brother Harry has deteriorated to the point of indifference.
Scobie claims that Prince Harry was kept in the dark about Queen Elizabeth’s health in her final hours. Despite being in the UK at the same time, Harry and Meghan reportedly had no idea that Buckingham Palace was preparing for the Queen’s passing. In a heartbreaking moment, Harry received a call from his father Charles, who informed him that he and Camilla were rushing to the Queen’s bedside in Balmoral. However, when Harry contacted his brother William, he received no response.
The book alleges that Harry was left to fend for himself and was not included in an intimate dinner at Birkhall with Charles, Camilla, and William. Following the news of the Queen’s death, Harry reportedly booked his own flight back to London as he received no offer to return with his family.
Furthermore, Scobie claims that William has prioritized his loyalty to the monarchy over his relationship with his brother. The book suggests that William has secretly cooperated with the UK press to undermine Harry. However, Kensington Palace did not respond to these allegations.
While the book suggests that there is no going back for the strained relationship between the brothers, it appears that there is still some warmth between Harry and Charles. They reportedly have a reluctant acceptance of their different perspectives.
The book also reveals that Harry made a brief visit to the UK for his father’s coronation, even though the relationship with his family remains unresolved. Harry’s visit was seen as a gesture of acceptance, as he explained, I’m ready to move on past it. Whether we get an apology or accountability, who knows? Who really cares at this point?
It remains to be seen how the revelations in Scobie’s book will impact the royal family. However, the claims and allegations are sure to generate further discussion and speculation about the dynamics within the monarchy.
