The Royal Family is seeking legal advice after the two senior members of the Firm at the heart of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's "racism row" were revealed live on television.
Piers Morgan announced the names on his TalkTV show, adding that he personally doesn't believe that "any racist comments were ever made by any of the Royal Family".
The big reveal comes after thousands of copies of the Dutch version of Omid Scobie's explosive new book Endgame were pulled for identifying the two royals who allegedly expressed concern over the colour of Prince Archie's skin before he was born.
Royal sources revealed “utter dismay” at the heart of the monarchy after the names of the accused senior royals were plastered across social media yesterday trending on X for hours overnight.
The Daily Record has chosen not to name the pair and Buckingham Palace is believed to be “considering all options”, including legal action, the Mirror reports.
Author Omid Scobie, who is set to give his first UK interview today on ITV's This Morning, has denied including the names as he insists he was not responsible for translated passages in foreign publications.
The 42-year-old, who is often referred to as Meghan’s "pal" due to their relationship before the release of his book Finding Freedom about Harry and Meghan’s departure from The Firm, claims he knew the names of the 'racist royals' but legal restrictions in the UK prevented him from publishing them.
He said: “Having only written and edited the English version of Endgame, I can only comment on that manuscript, which does not name the two individuals who took part in the conversation.
