In a shocking revelation, royal writer Omid Scobie has come forward with explosive claims about Prince William's alleged role in driving a rift between him and his brother Prince Harry. Scobie, known for his close ties to the Sussexes, accuses William of being in "heir-mode" and engaging in palace maneuvers that have strained their relationship. These startling revelations were made in Scobie's highly anticipated new book, Endgame.

The Times recently released extracts from the 400-page book, shedding light on the author's claims about William's alleged behavior. Scobie describes the Prince as a "hot-headed" company man who is becoming increasingly comfortable with the palace's "dirty tricks" and the courtiers who devise them.

According to Scobie's account, William has played a significant role in painting his brother as mentally fragile. The author claims that the Prince has been actively involved in disseminating negative information about Harry through his loyal aides and press relationships.

Scobie further suggests that William's actions are driven by his understanding that his father's reign is only transitional. This knowledge, as per the book, influences William's behavior and decision-making, putting strain on his relationship with his brother.

One particularly painful chapter in the book highlights an incident in which William allegedly ignored Harry's texts while the family was racing to reach Queen Elizabeth II in Balmoral in her final hours. Harry, reportedly, chartered a flight alone to be with his grandmother, but news of her passing only reached him through a BBC News alert.

Scobie also claims that King Charles exhibited caution when speaking with Prince Harry after the release of his inflammatory memoir, Spare. The author details an alleged conversation between father and son, suggesting that Charles issued a message to other family members not to trust Harry or his book's claims.

The revelations in Scobie's book come at a time of heightened tensions between the Sussexes and the rest of the Royal Family. Scobie, who insists he is not on the payroll of the Sussexes, has faced scrutiny for his unflinching support of the couple and his previous work, Finding Freedom.

While Buckingham Palace has not commented on the claims made in the book, the public has eagerly anticipated its release as it promises to shed light on the inner workings and conflicts within the Royal Family.

As Scobie's bombshell book hits the shelves, it remains to be seen how these revelations will impact already strained family dynamics. The public awaits further insight into the royal rift and the roles played by the key figures involved.
