When the shadow of racism lurks in Buckingham: first it was Charles III and now Kate Middleton

If the book of memories of Harry Spare (In the Shadow) was devastating for Charles III and his family, the new editorial bombshell about the Windsors has created a seismic movement in the palace. Endgame, by Omid Scobie, a writer friend of Meghan Markle and considered a spokesperson for the Sussexes, is not only eroding the public image of The Firm, but also of the institution. The British media carefully examines each sentence of the text. The word racism, pointing to the skin tone of Archie, Harry and Meghan’s eldest son, returns like a hurricane. The author points out two royal people.

When Meghan Markle revealed to Oprah Winfrey who, during Archie’s pregnancy, had suffered racist comments at Buckingham about what it would be like the color of your child’s skinthe culture of silence was broken in the palace. Isabel II had to intervene and speak out about the seriousness of the accusation. In the end, the name of Charles, then Prince of Wales, came to light as the author of the racist comments. Now we find out that there is a middle name: Kate Middleton.

Both Carlos and Kate supposedly had concerns about the baby’s skin tone, according to Scobie’s text. This has been revealed by the British presenter Piers Morgan, who has obtained a copy Endgame in the Dutch version, as echoed in Page Six. The author reports that the American actress sent some letters to her father-in-law in which a royal appeared, whose identity is hidden. It so happens that in the British version the names do not appear and in the Dutch translation, they do. An accidental discovery, which Morgan himself has justified by explaining that in the United Kingdom they have not been revealed due to libel law (for defamation).

Other pearls in the book are that Guillermo prioritized his loyalty to the House, the Crown and the institution and leaked negative information about his brother and his wife to the media with the aim of damaging the public image of both. So much so that the writer calls the King’s eldest son an impulsive and power-hungry man.” He also says of Kate that “she is a low-achieving person.” The author charges against the monarch and the heir whom he confronts in a “increasing struggle” to manage the future of the monarchy. It also speaks of the Prince of Wales’ impatience to go higher.
