In an unforeseen turn of events, copies of the unofficial spokesperson for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were removed from shelves in the Netherlands after Scobie identified two members of the royal family accused by the couple of making racist remarks about their then-unborn son, Prince Archie.
Piers Morgan further amplified the situation by publicly disclosing the identities on his TalkTV show, arguing that the British public deserved to know.
Despite the ensuing turmoil, Pauline Maclaran, a professor at the University of London, remains optimistic about the monarchy's resilience. She believes, "They will rise above it.
The Queen (Elizabeth II) issued a statement after Harry and Meghan first made the claim in their interview with Oprah Winfrey. I don't think the book has been given much credibility. It will stir up a storm for a while, become a bestseller briefly, and then fade away."
"Prince William made a statement after the Oprah interview, asserting that the Royal Family is not racist. He will likely feel quite aggrieved by these accusations. In the grand scheme of things, there are many other pressing matters in the world. This is at the level of trivia."
