Title: Unveiled: Dutch Edition Reveals Alleged Royal Racism Controversy in King Charles III's Correspondence
Greetings, folks! Let's dive into the latest royal drama in Great Britain, where King Charles III is facing his first crisis after only three months on the throne. This intriguing situation revolves around a faulty Dutch edition of the book "Endgame" by renowned royal expert Omid Scobie.
The book's Dutch translation, published a few hundred kilometers east of the Channel, has sparked controversy due to a translation error, as the publisher claims. However, while the book was being pulled off the shelves, the damaging passages had already spread like wildfire in the world of gossip.
Remember the 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? They dropped a bombshell about "concerns and conversations" regarding their future child's skin color at the palace. Although they did not name the specific royal family member involved, the rumor mill churned.
In "Endgame," author Omid Scobie references exchanges of letters between Meghan and Charles (then the Prince). The English edition of the book suggests that "two identities were revealed." However, the Dutch version reveals more.
In an interview on British television station ITV, Scobie divulged that only the Dutch edition provided explicit names in regards to the royal family member's concerns about the unborn child's skin color. While Scobie maintained that the names were not in his original manuscript, dutch aristocracy expert Rick Evers asserts that the names were included in Scobie's manuscript, but were removed for legal reasons from the final English version.
So, who took a jab at Archie's skin color, according to the Dutch edition? Apparently, none other than King Charles III, as well as his wife, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, according to Evers' notes.
As of now, clarity remains elusive on what exactly Charles (or Catherine) said to Meghan. Was it a poor joke a la Philip tradition, a miscommunication, or a malicious rumor? No one knows. And in a twist of irony, Harry and Meghan have chosen to remain quiet on this topic, further fueling the frenzy.
Unfortunately, with the controversy surrounding the Dutch edition and the royal family's tight lid on the issue, King Charles III is left defenseless in the face of public opinion.
