At one point in the book, there is mention of a discussion in the Royal Family about how dark the skin of Meghan and Harry’s baby would be. This was something Markle had mentioned in an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, but the names of the family members in question were never disclosed. However, in a Dutch reprint of Scobie’s book, there was a line in there which alleged it was the King and Princess Catherine who had had this conversation. Scobie insisted it was a publishing error and this led to the book being pulled and pulped, but not before the revelation went nuclear. When asked if they would pursue legal action, the palace responded that it was “exploring all options”, though as far as we know no further action has been taken. Weeks later, Scobie admitted that he had named the pair in an earlier draft of the book.
