Omid Scobie
opens up on 'upsetting' revelation about Harry and William's relationship
The Dutch
translator who worked on Omid Scobie‘s Endgame book has insisted the names of
two royals accused of racism were in the manuscript she was sent - but the
author says he will not apologise.
The Dutch
version of Endgame was pulled from the shelves, the publisher dismissing the
edition containing the names as a “translation error”.
Saskia
Peeters told MailOnline she did not add the names to the Dutch version of the
book, after a translated version identified the two royals accused of raising
questions about the skin colour of Prince Harry and Meghan’s son before he was
born.
Mr Scobie
told Newsnight it was not for him to apologise because he still wanted to know
what had happened.
“The buck
doesn’t stop with me because there are irresponsible people in this country
who’ve broken the law and repeated names that should never have been repeated,
should never have been named,” he said.
“The book I
edited and signed off on did not have names in it.”
TV host
Piers Morgan defended his decision to identify the two members of the royal
family at the centre of the furore, saying it was “blindingly obvious” they
were not guilty of racism.

William in united front at Royal Variety show amid racism storm
The
Princess of Wales dazzled at the Royal Variety Performance last night as she
and Prince William brushed off the fallout from the royal race row after the
publication of Omid Scobie’s book Endgame.
She was
joined on the red carpet at the Royal Albert Hall by Prince William, putting on
a united front as they held hands outside the event.
It is their
first public appearance since royal reporter Scobie’s book Endgame hit shelves
on Tuesday.

Paloma Faith said William and Kate seemed calm when they spoke with her after
she sang at the Royal Albert Hall on Thursday night, and quipped they were not
bothered by her going barefoot.
It’s the
eagerly awaited inside story of royal rivalries at the heart of the House of
Windsor, and Anna Pasternak, the first to review it, discovers that the author
with unique access to Harry and Meghan is unafraid of burning bridges to reveal
his truth about the state of the monarchy
