Author and royal reporter Omid Scobie has addressed the temporary removal of a Dutch translation of his latest book on Britain’s royal family from bookshelves in the Netherlands.
In his book, “Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival,” Scobie, also an ABC News royal contributor, reports on an explosive claim that Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, made after stepping away from their senior royal roles in 2020.
In a 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex revealed that before the birth of their son Archie, there were discussions about the potential skin tone of the child. Archie, who is currently 4 years old, holds the distinction of being the first biracial royal born in the U.K. with American and British heritage. He is widely acknowledged as the first mixed-race child born into the royal family.

In “Endgame,” Omid Scobie claims that two individuals raised questions about Archie’s skin tone. Despite being aware of their identities, Scobie stated in an interview with ABC News that he is unable to publicly disclose their names due to U.K. libel laws.
