Princess Kate – Continues To Retain Her Popularity Following Omid Scobie’s Racist Claims
I doubt you missed the circus that was Omid Scobie’s book “Endgame,” but in case you did, here’s a brief recap. So Scobie wrote a book he claimed will detail the royal family’s fight for survival in the modern era, but there was one big mistake, or two.

Royston continued: “However, as time passed the protective blanket that America threw over Meghan began to slip away and when Harry’s book, Spare, was published, complete with an account of getting frostbite on his penis, it was replaced by ridicule.”
