The Dutch edition of the book implicated King Charles and Kate Middleton as the royals alleged to have made comments about the skin color of Prince Archie in the lead-up to his birth. The King is reportedly consulting senior advisers on the family's next steps in response to the book.
While Buckingham Palace is internally investigating the leak, it is confident that it did not originate from within the palace. The palace believes that only a 'tiny handful' of people have had access to the letters in question.
Despite the accusations and the ongoing controversy, King Charles and Kate Middleton have not publicly commented on the matter. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who have been at the center of the controversy, have also remained silent.
Omid Scobie, who has been accused of being a 'mouthpiece' for the Sussexes, denied the allegation, emphasizing that he is not 'Meg's pal.' Sources close to Meghan Markle contend that she never intended for the names of the family members to be publicly identified, adding another layer of complexity to the unfolding scandal.
