According to revelations in Omid Scobie's recent book "Endgame," released this Tuesday, Prince Harry expressed concern that his and Meghan Markle's eldest son faced more security risks but received less protection compared to Prince William and Kate Middleton's three children.
In the book, Scobie, a royal biographer, discloses that Prince Harry was apprehensive about the safety of his son, leading to Archie having a smaller security team compared to the "bigger security team" assigned to the children of the Prince and Princess of Wales.
A senior member of the Sussexes' staff at the time, referred to by some as Meghan's spokesperson, disclosed to Scobie that the Duchess of Sussex was "living in fear."
"She’s living in fear . . . not just for herself but for the baby. You can’t expect anyone to live like that," the staff member revealed.
Scobie continued to write, "Despite Archie facing more security threats than other royal children, additional safety measures were not implemented. Hierarchy prevailed, and as the seventh in line to the throne at the time, Archie was not considered a particularly high priority."
In 2019, Harry reportedly expressed concerns about the lack of consideration for his biracial wife and mixed-race son: "No one is thinking about the fact that my wife is biracial, my son is mixed race . . . None of this registers to anyone," as documented in "Endgame."
Born on May 6, 2019, Prince Archie is sixth in the line of succession to the British throne. Currently residing in Montecito with his younger sister Princess Lilibet, the couple stepped down as senior working royals months after Archie's birth and relocated to the US, where they now live with their children without security concerns.
