The royal family faces new claims from Harry and Meghan's biographer, Omid Scobie, after Prince Harry's recent birthday chat with King Charles. The call was the duo's first in six months, with Meghan also conveying her wishes. Scobie's 'Endgame' book extract raises eyebrows, alleging Harry was unaware of the Queen's health concerns before her passing. It also highlights the strained bond between William and Harry, portraying Charles viewing Harry as a 'defector.'

The book's claims, yet unconfirmed by the Palace, complicate ongoing relations. Buckingham Palace declined to address reports about the birthday conversation. Meanwhile, Harry supposedly declined an invitation to Charles's celebration, conflicting with palace sources.

Scobie's book excerpt reveals a distressing moment when Harry received calls from Charles, unaware of the gravity, and sought William's help to no avail, eventually flying solo to Scotland. The author asserts that palace briefings left Harry emotionally shattered.

The book also addresses William's changed perception of Harry, signaling a stark transformation in their relationship. Set to release on November 28, 'Endgame' might stir further tensions within Buckingham Palace.
