The British royal family is facing a new wave of scrutiny with the release of Omid Scobie's latest book, 'Endgame,' known for its controversial takes on the Windsors.
Co-author of the authorized biography 'Finding Freedom' about the Sussexes, Scobie doesn't hold back as he levels accusations at various members of the Crown.
One particularly striking revelation revolves around Meghan's veiled accusation of racism, pointing to Charles III. Scobie also suggests Princess Anne's involvement in Harry's Frogmore Cottage eviction and takes unexpected shots at Sophie of Edinburgh.
However, Kate Middleton emerges as a significant target, with Scobie describing her as "cold" and making severe claims.
In the dedicated chapter on Kate in 'Endgame,' Scobie alleges that she "defended mental health causes while ignoring her sister-in-law's cries for help." He portrays her as someone who "trembles" at the mention of Meghan's name and asserts that they haven't spoken since 2019. Scobie describes Kate as "cold," stating she has no interest in befriending her sister-in-law, nicknaming her "Katie Keen" due to her supposedly performative statements.
The book delves into Kate's relationship with the late queen, suggesting she was liked for being "trainable," in contrast to the strong-minded Princess Diana. Scobie characterizes Kate as someone who "goes unnoticed," comfortably fitting into her role without challenging the system.
In relation to Meghan's struggles within the Crown, 'Endgame' asserts that "the Crown ignored Meghan when she was suffering." Scobie criticizes the institution for treating women not born into the royal family as disposable. Regarding the Princess of Wales, he claims her workload is lower than other senior officials, dubbing her "technically a royal who works part-time" and highlighting her occasional stumbling over words in public.
Scobie contrasts Kate's royal engagements with Meghan's leadership and outgoing nature, presenting her as a "shining ornament on the royal family tree" before her resignation. The book claims palace guards keep an eye on Kate, emphasizing the marathon to the throne. A striking revelation alleges that Sophie, Camilla, and Kate ignored Meghan at the funeral of Elizabeth II, illustrating persistent power struggles and adherence to stale protocols within the royal family.
