Morgan's claims followed the release of Omid Scobie's book "Endgame," where the Dutch-language edition inadvertently named two senior royals in relation to alleged comments about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's son Archie's skin tone. Scobie attributed it to a "translation error," and the copies were subsequently pulped.
While Scobie distanced himself from the error, Morgan reportedly repeated the names on TalkTV and its website, potentially exposing himself to defamation claims. The royal author, in compliance with UK law, did not name the alleged royals in his original version of the book.
The situation has led to speculation about potential legal action against Piers Morgan for his controversial claims, adding another layer of complexity to the ongoing controversies surrounding the royal family.
