The Sun earlier revealed a fresh race row is brewing as book will say Meghan named two royals who made “comments” about baby Archie’s skin, in letters to King Charles.
And Endgame will also describe how Charles, 75, blasted his wayward son “that fool” after last year’s shock six-part Netflix series ‘Harry & Meghan’ heaped fresh embarrassment on the royals.
Scobie’s book also claims that both Prince William and Harry believe the police inquest into their mum’s death – which puts much of the blame on Paul for drunk driving – was a “joke”.
The author also claims in the book that the Royal Household’s diversity drive is merely a PR stunt.
King Charles, who was then a prince, though hired Colleen Harris, whose family are from Guyana, as press secretary in 1998 and British-Nigerian Eva Omaghomi as community engagement chief in 2022.
Scobie also claims Wills distanced himself from Harry following his wedding to Meghan despite the brothers and their wives attending high-profile events afterwards.
Following the wedding the “Fab Four” were spotted at a number of events, including being photographed smiling outside St Mary Magdalene church, Sandringham on Christmas morning in 2018.
Sources close to the King insisted the royals were concentrating on the day job and showcasing their good work rather than getting sidetracked by a new book.
Ahead of publication of Endgame, Prince William, 41, got to work and honoured the achievements of leading African conservationists by attending the annual Tusk Conservation Awards, at The Savoy Hotel.
Before taking his seat at the reception at The Savoy, the Prince held a reception with the charity’s trustees and representatives, including Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood.
In an address to the awards, Prince of Wales has warned that there must be “no letup” in collective efforts to stop the “terrifying” loss of species and habitats across Africa.
Speaking at the 11th annual Tusk Conservation Awards in London, fighting animal poaching, he issued a reminder about the “disproportionate loss and damage from climate change” that the continent is facing.
Prince William, who has been patron of Tusk since 2005, said: “There must be no letup in our collective efforts to stem the terrifying loss of species and habitats we are all bearing witness to.”
On Monday evening, three individuals were awarded for their conservation work by the charity, which has supported habitat protection and anti-poaching intervention in Africa for over thirty years.
Prince William presented the awards on-stage to winners Jealous Mpofu, Dr Ekwoge Abwe and Fanny Minesi for their conservation work.
The Prince hailed the ceremony as “a rare moment to reflect on the significant achievements of our award winners and to recognise the challenges they face each and every day.
He told the event how the rangers celebrated through the awards are “ecosystem guardians working on behalf of the global community.”
He said that these individuals “shoulder the immense responsibility of stewarding these vast areas of land and water – areas that are vital for the future of life on earth.”
The Prince added that protection of these natural habitats in Africa will “set us on the path to reaching the global target of safeguarding 30 per cent of all land, oceans, and inland waters by 2030”.
The future king helped to launch Tusk’s annual ceremony in 2013 to recognise the work of those trying to safeguard some of Africa’s most iconic animals and habitats.
As Royal patron, he has been a long-standing supporter of the charity’s efforts for almost two decades.
The awards aim to spotlight the stories of conservation leaders and wildlife rangers across the continent so that their work can be amplified.
Since the inaugural event in 2013, the awards have now recognised 55 conservation leaders from 20 countries.
“It is evenings like this that provide the vital impetus to effect positive change,” William said, adding: “Today’s winners now join an impressive alumni, formed of Africa’s most impactful, passionate and committed conservationists.”
