Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's Pal Claims King Charles Doesn't Enjoy Being Monarch, Prince William Is A 'Hothead'

Royal biographer Omid Scobie will be releasing his latest book very soon.

An upcoming memoir is about to paint senior royal family members as dysfunctional and opportunistic. Royal biographer Omid Scobie's imminent book suggests that King Charles is not enjoying being a monarch and alleges Prince William is a hothead who employs the dark arts of publicity.

Royal Family Braces For Another Wave of Public Verbal Attacks

Prince Harry has been advised that he must assist in mending the schism that is ripping the Royal Family apart by arresting a flow of vicious verbal attacks. “If Harry wants to heal the rift with his family, he needs to stop the victim agenda and start taking a more mature stance by accepting blame for his own role in the breakdown of family cohesion,” royal author Margaret Holder stated.

“Harry could be more protective of his family and tell sources who speak to Scobie to end any association with him. If people believe [he] speaks for Harry and Meghan, that is simply helping to damage the Royal Family and any chance of a reconciliation with the Sussexes,” she went on.

Express UK reported that “Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival” will be released in hardcover in the United Kingdom on Tuesday of this week. Experts claimed that the damaging revelations in the imminent book would reverberate throughout the next generations of royals and put the Wales kids against the Sussex kids.

“This is clearly a hatchet job. This sounds like an attempt to drive a wedge between the King and William,” Dai Davies, former head of royal protection for the Met Police, shared. “I don’t dispute his right to present the case for a modernized monarchy – on that I agree with him – but I do regret his quoted savaging of William and Catherine. Given the inside information Scobie appears to have from private correspondence between Meghan and Charles, I have to conclude he has a special relationship with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex,” Margaret stated of the forthcoming book.

The allegations made in the imminent book have been dismissed as another attempt to create further mayhem in the royal family already at war. However, Omid contended that they are a “reality check.”

“That doesn’t mean he should continually stir the feud between the two brothers who should be locked in life through the shared tragedy of their mother’s loss. My concern isn’t that Scobie will bring down the monarchy, as he simply hasn’t got the power, but this repeated pattern of defending Harry and Meghan’s corner to please their supporters might spill over into the next generation of young royals with the Sussex children at odds with their Wales cousins,” Margaret went on.

What’s Inside Omid Scobie’s New Book?

As per reports, Omid Scobie discusses the royal family’s “fight for survival” in his latest book. “It would take a lot to dismantle the British Royal Family. But could William be the last King as we know it? Absolutely. The book isn’t hammering the final nail in the coffin. It’s just a reality check,” the close pal of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry said at the weekend.

According to leaked excerpts, Princess Kate is "terrified to do anything more than grinning photo opportunities." It was also said that Prince William collaborated with Palace aides who concocted dirty tricks to depict Harry as emotionally vulnerable. William, the heir to the throne, is portrayed as a cold and vicious character eager to succeed his father, Charles, whom he apparently regards as a transitional king.

Omid Scobie claims Prince William has a fierce temper that contradicts his demure public persona, describing him as "reserved on the pitch but unpredictable" off it. “When something doesn’t suit him, his anger immediately escalates. He wants the job done, and he has no problem with casualties along the way. The Prince of Wales is eager to ascend the throne. A real impatience is created around him,” he said.

The close friend of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry further alleges that King Charles, who inherited the throne from his late mother Elizabeth II, in September last year, is jealous of Prince William because he has come to recognize that his own reign will be only temporary. He is also believed to have disliked Harry's former public prominence and turned a blind eye as staffers leaked details about his sons to the media in an attempt to construct a "great dad" narrative.

According to the book, King Charles thought his younger son was a "fool" for agreeing to last year's fly-on-the-wall Harry & Meghan Netflix series. It sparked a family feud, and the book alleges Charles told "lies" and William "screamed and shouted" after the Sussexes declared their intention to leave public life for the United States.

Omid Scobie argues Charles' unwillingness to contact Harry following the series and the Prince's appearance with Oprah Winfrey demonstrate his inability to handle constitutional concerns. The popular documentary was followed by Harry's memoir Spare, in which he chronicled his "incredibly painful" childhood in graphic detail.

Buckingham Palace has declined to comment on any of Omid Scobie’s claims. Also, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry distanced themselves from Omid’s book and denied any connection to him.
