For a couple supposedly desperate for privacy, Meghan and Harry have an interesting definition of what it means to escape the spotlight. This time, however, they don’t have themselves entirely to thank. Journalist and royal-obsessive Omid Scobie has reopened the wounds of the regal family scandal after releasing his new biography Endgame, risking the wrath of the royals. While Scobie insists the couple were not involved in the book, it’s not gone unnoticed that neither Meghan nor Harry have condemned any of the stories in it criticising their family members.
The book has attracted plenty of publicity but it’s not gone quite as well for Scobie as he might have hoped. After denying he intentionally named the ‘racist royals’ as King Charles and Princess Kate, the biographer looks set to face a legal battle of his own. And, even more depressingly for the attention-hungry journalist, it appears his new book has flopped.
