In his discussion with E! News, Scobie acknowledges the Princess of Wales for maintaining her image amidst criticisms concerning her focus on motherhood over royal duties and the constant media scrutiny surrounding her role as a future Queen. He marvels at her ability to withstand "that kind of pressure."
Scobie, as revealed in his book "Endgame," suggests that Kate has artfully concealed her authentic self, presenting an enigmatic persona to the public and even, in his words, possibly to herself. He describes her as an "unimpeachable, relatable" figure who has transformed into an "inscrutable queen in training—an institutional dream come true."
Attributing her confidence to the ongoing support from the Firm, Scobie explains, "She is in such a delicate position where she relies on the support of the institution around her and she gets the support." However, he cautions that if there were ever a moment where she attempted to deviate or assert herself, she, like any other woman married into the royal family, would face a formidable challenge.
While Scobie expresses doubt about witnessing such a scenario, he emphasizes the complexities and challenges inherent in navigating the delicate balance of royal life, suggesting that the support structure is crucial for individuals like Princess Kate.
