Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are yet to make comment on Omid Scobie's book Endgame

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry "need" to reconcile with the Royal Family if they are to maintain their successful career in Hollywood, it has been claimed.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who stepped down as working royals in 2020, have continued to drive a wedge between themselves and Harry's family from their home in California.


This year alone, the couple have released a behind the scenes documentary with Netflix and Prince Harry has released his own tell-all memoir, Spare, which became the fastest selling non-fiction book of all time.

The couple have made several claims and allegations against the Royal Family in their projects, after choosing a life of "privacy" in Montecito.

The royal couple most recently became involved in a new scandal with author Omid Scobie, after he released his second royal biography, Endgame.

In the book, the cheerleader for the couple made several allegations against senior royals, including a development of an allegation first made by Harry and Meghan themselves with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, where they accused the royals of having "conversations and concerns" about son Archie's skin colour.

Harry and Meghan have remained silent on their possible involvement in the book, despite several calls to make a statement and distance themselves from Scobie.

Speaking to GB News, Showbiz and Royal Reporter Kinsey Schofield told Patrick Christys that it is "too close to Endgame" for the Royal Family to forgive the couple.

Schofield told host Patrick Christys: "Deadline recently ran a report that said that Meghan was specifically struggling through WME to secure brand deals, and that the agency was really scratching their head around how to manage Meghan's brand.

"With so much animosity towards the Royal Family coming from the Sussexes, people like Dior that were rumoured to be working with Meghan previously, had recently dressed Queen Camilla.

"And on top of that, recently named the young woman playing Kate Middleton in the Crown as their new face of Dior. It's not Meghan, it's Kate from the Crown that's the new face of Dior.

"So when we talk about Harry and Meghan eager to reconcile this holiday season, how do you not acknowledge the fact that there are similar reports that Harry and Meghan need to reconcile with the Royal Family so that they can try to navigate in Hollywood?"

Patrick then questioned if Harry and Meghan's bid to reconcile with the Royal Family was for "commercial gain", rather than a genuine effort to end the royal rift.

Schofield admitted: "Unfortunately I do. I think that there are elements to Prince Harry, I do think he truly misses his family.

"I don't think, and Omid Scobie's book said this too, that Meghan has any desire to return to the UK to patch things up. She would like to utilise the platform that they gave her to monetise this fame or infamy.

"I do think Harry is likely very lonely and misses his family and misses the chaos that surrounds those fun Christmases. But for Meghan, I think it's mostly financial."

Schofield also claimed that it is "too close to Endgame" for the Royal Family to forgive the couple.
