Blow for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s biographer Omid Scobie as he gives up Royal editor gig

ONE of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s closest allies has given up a high-profile royal role.

Omid Scobie is no longer royal editor for the website Yahoo! News, it has been revealed.

Scobie, one of Prince Harry and Meghan‘s most fervent supporters, had often used the platform to praise them and criticise the royal family.

He also co-authored Finding Freedom, a sympathetic biography about the duke and duchess.

His last column for the website, published almost five months ago, had the headline, “Protests and apathy: Why King Charles should be worried about the rise of indifference and republicanism”.

Scobie announced last month his next book, called Endgame, would reveal moments the royal family should be “ashamed of”.

A notice on the news website now says of Scobie: “He was Yahoo! News UK’s royal executive editor from 2022-2023.”

In his own statement, he posted on Twitter tonight: “For those asking, I chose not to renew with Yahoo! News in order to focus on new projects.

“Massively enjoyed my time with the company and its fantastic teams, especially HendersStu who was beyond patient with me while I took time off to finish the final chapters of #ENDGAME.”

Reports have suggested Endgame has been delayed for three months allowing him to add new chapters about King Charles’s coronation, including “sensational details” about Harry’s solo flying visit to London for the event.

Scobie has previously said the book would “pull back the curtain on an institution in turmoil—exposing the chaos, family dysfunction, distrust and draconian practices threatening its very future”.

He is also royal editor of US website Harper’s Bazaar.

Scobie wrote ahead of the coronation that Meghan would be staying at the royal couple’s home in Montecito, California, because it coincided with their son Archie‘s fourth birthday.

Reports today suggested Harry has been pushed to the sidelines of an eco-tourism project he helped to launch.

He launched Travalyst four years ago but mention of him has been left off the not-for-profit organisation’s latest update.

It follows claims the Beckhams’ friendship with Harry and Meghan was over, and that the Sussexes were “taking time apart“.
