In a new twist to the ongoing race row involving Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and their son Archie, two prominent senior working royals find themselves entangled in the controversy.
The royal family is reportedly “united in outrage” after their names were allegedly revealed in the Dutch version of the controversial book, “Endgame,” authored by Omid Scobie.
Scobie, a close associate of Meghan and Harry, confirmed on ITV’s This Morning that an investigation had been initiated into the Dutch translation of his book.
However, he vehemently denied including the identities of the two senior royals in the original manuscript, attributing the scandal to the Dutch publisher. Expressing frustration, Scobie stated, “I never submitted a book that had those names in it.”
Contrary to Scobie’s denial, Dutch translator Saskia Peeters insisted that the names of the senior royals were present in the manuscript she received.
Peeters, speaking from her home in Arnhem, clarified, “As a translator, I translate what is in front of me. The names of the royals were there in black and white. I did not add them.”
Amid the escalating controversy, reports suggest that Buckingham Palace is exploring all available options and seeking emergency legal advice to address the damaging allegations. The royal family’s unity in outrage reflects the seriousness of the situation, as the race row continues to generate shockwaves within the monarchy.
TV presenter Piers Morgan further fueled the debate, using the opening monologue of his show “Uncensored” on TalkTV to identify the royals in question.
Morgan expressed disbelief in any racist comments from the royal family and emphasized the public’s entitlement to information. The clip, shared on X (formerly Twitter), has garnered millions of views.
