But the Sussexes’ cheerleader launches several new attacks on senior royals including King Charles,\u00a0who he claims ignored a meeting request from his son while he was in London earlier this year\u00a0and instead\u00a0ordered an assistant to make the excuse that he was ‘overworked’.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n And in a dig against the Princess\u00a0of Wales, Mr Scobie quotes a close friend of the Sussexes as saying she\u00a0‘spent more time talking about Meghan… than with Meghan’ and that she now\u00a0‘shudders and giggles nervously’ every time her name is mentioned.<\/span><\/p>\n Endgame, which is out on Tuesday, threatens to reopen old wounds in the aftermath of Megxit. It will brand Charles\u00a0‘unpopular’, William ‘power hungry’ and say Harry was ‘betrayed by his own family’.<\/span><\/p>\n Today, Buckingham Palace told MailOnline it was ‘not commenting’ on the latest extracts published by Paris Match, nor claims Mr Scobie made in an accompanying\u00a0interview with the publication. MailOnline has contacted Archewell for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Meghan Markle – pictured with Prince Harry on May 16 – is said to never want to set foot in England again\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Mr Scobie also claims the Sussexes sent Christmas gifts to the Prince and Princess of Wales for their children but never received a thank you text in return\u00a0<\/p>\n The author (pictured) has denied his new book Endgame is ‘Harry and Meghan’s’ and instead claimed it will tell the ‘current state of the British Royal Family’<\/p>\n In extracts of Endgame shared today with Paris Match, Mr Scobie also claims-<\/span><\/p>\n The latest extracts from Endgame paint a dire picture of relations between Prince Harry and his family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In interviews, the Duke of Sussex has previously\u00a0held out hopes that they may one day come round to his view, but Mr Scobie claims he has now given up hope.\u00a0<\/p>\n Instead, he quotes him as saying: ‘I’m ready to forget. Get an apology or explanation? At this point, who cares, right?’<\/p>\n Meghan Markle’s decision not to attend the coronation on May 6 is one of the subjects covered in Endgame.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n At the time, Harry announced he would be travelling to the UK without his wife, who was remaining in California to look after their children.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Prince was reported to have voiced concerns over security and the reputation his family could receive from the public.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Other reports suggested Meghan had been left upset after a letter from Charles did not a<\/span>ddress claims she had made about her poor mental health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n At the time, Mr Scobie said Archie’s birthday ‘played a factor in the decision’ and he expected it would be a ‘fairly quick trip to the UK’ for Harry.<\/p>\n But he’s now claimed Endgame that\u00a0Meghan didn’t attend because she refused to ‘dive back into the soap opera of the court’.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Mr Scobie has previously denied his new book is ‘Harry and Meghan’s’ and instead claimed it will tell the ‘current state of the British Royal Family’.\u00a0<\/p>\n It comes hours after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex distanced themselves from the book, with insiders indicating to MailOnline they had nothing to do with it.\u00a0<\/p>\n Posting on X last Thursday Mr Scobie wrote: ‘And let’s get this nonsense out the way – #ENDGAME is about the current state of the British Royal Family.\u00a0<\/p>\n ‘It’s not ”Harry and Meghan’s book”, I’m not ”Meg’s pal”, the Sussexes have nothing to do with it, their story is a small part of a much bigger one you can read in 12 days.’\u00a0<\/p>\n Experts said that the Sussexes’ favoured royal reporter’s new biography is threatening a potential thawing in relations between the King and his youngest son.\u00a0<\/p>\n Mr Scobie posted on Twitter denying that Harry and Meghan had anything to do with the book\u00a0<\/p>\n Reactions to the post from social media users varied, with one person writing: ‘Oh, so not like the last book then.’ Another person wrote: ‘Preach! Set them straight.’\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n MailOnline understands that Meghan and Harry categorically deny any suggestion they are ‘affiliated’ with the book or that Mr Scobie, who has been friendly with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and co-wrote their biography Finding Freedom, is part of the ‘Sussex Camp’.<\/p>\n The denial came after Harry and Meghan’s olive branch to the King on his 75th birthday.<\/p>\n Harry is believed to have telephoned his father last Tuesday – and they have reportedly agreed to chat again this week.<\/p>\n The Duchess of Sussex is also said to have spoken to her father-in-law from their home in California while the couple’s children Archie, four, and Lilibet, two, recorded a video of themselves singing happy birthday to their grandfather.<\/p>\n 24 hours later excerpts of Mr Scobie’s book were shared with People in the US, including claims that Harry ‘remained in the dark’ about the Queen’s health in her final moments.<\/p>\n It also alleges that it was Meghan who urged Harry to answer his phone when Charles called him on an ‘unknown number’ to reveal that the Queen was close to death, before also asking that Meghan should stay away from Balmoral.<\/p>\n The book is released on November 28 – but excerpts have been released this week\u00a0<\/p>\n Mr Scobie writes: ‘Charles had cited ‘protocol,’ but the reality was that Kate chose to stay back to pick up the children from their first day at a new school. ‘They just didn’t want Meghan there,’ said a former Palace aide. Meghan, a friend added, ‘could sense she wasn’t wanted’.’<\/p>\n The book also claims Prince William ignored Harry’s texts, forcing him to charter his own plane. ‘William clearly didn’t want to see his brother’, Endgame says.<\/p>\n Mr Scobie’s decision to piggyback the release of his new book on the King’s 75th birthday and the sixth and final series of The Crown was branded ‘deplorable’.<\/p>\n Royal journalist and author Phil Dampier told MailOnline: ‘We all know that Scobie is their mouthpiece and he gets his information directly or indirectly from the Sussexes, so anything which is hurtful to Charles, Camilla or William and Kate, will just make things much worse. Let’s put it this way – I can’t see Harry and Meghan coming over for a family Christmas’.<\/p>\n He added: ‘The King has always left the door open for his son and will continue to do so. But in reality if there are more serious allegations in Scobie’s book it will set back any chance of a reconciliation’.<\/p>\n Royal courtiers are said to be furious over the claims made by Mr Scobie, who alleges that the Prince William ignored the Duke of Sussex’s calls as he raced to be at the Queen’s bedside in Scotland in September last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n Mr Scobie , who has been friendly with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and co-wrote their biography Finding Freedom, could be cut loose by the Sussexes and their circle, it has been claimed.<\/p>\n Harry (pictured, centre with his wife Meghan at the Queen’s funeral)\u00a0 has spoken to his father this week and they reportedly plan to speak again in the coming days<\/p>\n Mr Scobie claims that Prince William feels that he has ‘lost Harry and doesn’t want to know this version of him’<\/p>\n In an excerpt of his latest book, Endgame, he also alleges that that Prince Harry was ‘kept in the dark’ about the Queen’s health in the hours before she died<\/p>\n Elizabeth Debicki playing Princess Diana with boyfriend Dodi Al-Fayed by her side in the new series of The Crown<\/p>\n Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said: ‘The timing of this is utterly deplorable. I think the Sussexes will have to think hard about whether or not Scobie is their spokesman or their friend. It will be interesting to see if Harry and Meghan will still want to be associated with Scobie after this’.<\/span><\/p>\n He added: ‘Of course, the fact that it’s been leaked to People magazine makes one wonder what’s been going on behind the scenes’.<\/p>\n Royal insiders have torn into Mr Scobie’s claims that\u00a0Prince William ignored his brother’s calls as the late Queen lay dying in Balmoral last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n Royal courtiers are said to be furious over the claims made by Harry and Meghan’s biographer Omid Scobie, who alleges that the Prince of Wales ignored the Duke of Sussex’s calls as he raced to be at the Queen’s bedside in Scotland in September last year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n A Royal insider told the Mirror: ‘It appears no matter what happens behind closed doors, even in a time of such pain and grief, that where the Royal Family are concerned it will one day emerge.\u00a0<\/p>\n ‘Nothing is off limits with William and Kate appearing to be this author’s number one target. It only takes a few months for the knives to come out again and the wounds to be opened up’.\u00a0<\/p>\n In an excerpt of his latest book, Endgame, Mr Scobie alleges that Prince Harry was ‘kept in the dark’ about the Queen’s health in the hours before she died, and that\u00a0Prince William feels that he has ‘lost Harry and doesn’t want to know this version of him’.<\/span><\/p>\n Mr\u00a0Scobie, who previously released a biography on the Sussexes titled ‘Finding Freedom,’\u00a0said Harry, 39, and his 42-year-old wife Meghan\u00a0had ‘no idea’ the Royal Family\u00a0were preparing for the Queen’s death last year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Royal courtiers are said to be furious over the claims made by Harry and Meghan’s biographer Omid Scobie , who alleges that the Prince of Wales ignored the Duke of Sussex ‘s calls as he raced to be at the bedside of the Queen (pictured) in Scotland in September last year<\/p>\n According to the Mirror, Mr Scobie has said there was ‘no proof’ King Charles called his youngest son during the Queen’s death<\/p>\n In Endgame,<\/span>\u00a0Mr Scobie recounts how the Sussexes had visited the UK for a series of engagements in September 2022 when the palace announced that Queen Elizabeth had been advised by her doctors to rest.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n He writes: ‘By the next morning, the Sussexes had no idea that Buckingham Palace was already planning for the Queen’s final hours and the first days of the monarchy’s new era \u2014 until the duke’s phone started ringing. An unknown number. He usually ignored those.’<\/p>\n Meghan told her husband to pick up the phone and he accepted the call ‘just before it stopped’, the author wrote.\u00a0<\/p>\n He continues: ‘Harry hadn’t spoken to his father much that year, but this was not the time for any father-and-son tension. Charles told him he and Camilla were about to leave Dumfries House for Balmoral, where Princess Anne\u00a0was already by the Queen’s side. He told Harry to make his way to Scotland immediately.’<\/p>\n Harry sent a text message to his brother William asking how he and Kate planned to Scotland and whether they could travel together but got no response, Mr Scobie claims.\u00a0<\/p>\n He was later told Harry had managed to secure a flight with his uncles Prince Andrew and Prince Edward.<\/p>\n Prince Harry, Meghan Markle with King Charles and Queen Camilla at the late Queen’s funeral last year. Harry had reportedly not spoken to his father for a long time<\/p>\n An emotional Harry travels in an official car to Balmoral after the Queen’s death was announced to the nation\u00a0<\/p>\n ‘It was upsetting to witness,’ Mr Scobie claims he was told by a source close to the Sussexes. ‘[Harry] was completely by himself on this.’\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Mr Scobie alleges that Palace ‘sources’ briefed certain newspapers that Charles had personally shared the news of the Queen’s illness with his son. He quoted a friend of the duke who said this left Harry ‘crushed’.<\/p>\n The journalists makes fresh claims about the damaged relationship between William and Harry.\u00a0<\/p>\n The author also\u00a0<\/span>suggests William and Harry’s relationship is beyond repair because the Prince of Wales s<\/span>ees his brother as a ‘defector’<\/span><\/p>\n And in the extract shared with People, he claims ‘there is no going back’ for the brothers and ‘absolutely nothing has changed’ since the Duke of Sussex released Spare earlier this year.<\/p>\n A spokesperson for Buckingham Palace refused to comment on Endgame, due to be released on November 28, when approached by MailOnline.\u00a0<\/p>\n The latest bombshell accusations come\u00a0just hours after Harry ad his father shared ‘cordial’ 75th birthday call.<\/p>\n Harry is believed to have phoned his father on his special day yesterday to wish him Happy Birthday – in a call thought to be\u00a0the estranged royals’ first phone chat in six months.<\/p>\n King Charles and Harry are understood to have had minimal contact for months, particularly since the release of Harry’s tell-all memoir Spare, published in January, and a Netflix\u00a0series, which was released the month prior to that.\u00a0<\/p>\n Meghan Markle is also said to have spoken to her father-in-law to pass on her wishes from California.\u00a0And the couple’s children Archie and Lilibet recorded a video of themselves singing happy birthday to their grandfather, the\u00a0Telegraph\u00a0newspaper reported.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n The report claimed Charles and Harry will speak again next week after their call marked a ‘shift’ in tone and a ‘turning point’ between the pair.<\/p>\n Prince Harry and Prince William on July 1, 2021 during an unveiling of a statue of their mother at Kensington Palace\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were not spoken to about Charles’ party by Buckingham Palace, a spokesman for the pair previously said<\/p>\n King Charles celebrating his 75th birthday alongside Queen Camilla – together they\u00a0officially launched The Coronation Food Project at The South Oxfordshire Food and Education Alliance<\/p>\n Charles was presented with a cake at Highgrove House in honour of his birthday<\/p>\n Harry and Meghan previously said they had ‘no contact’ from Buckingham Palace about an invitation to Charles’ 75th evening birthday event.<\/p>\n The Sunday Times reported that Prince Harry had turned down an invitation to the birthday bash.<\/p>\n But a\u00a0source close to the Sussexes told MailOnline\u00a0<\/span>they were not invited to Charles’s party.<\/span><\/p>\n ‘They had not received any invitation and were unaware of any celebrations until the stories came out,’ the insider previously said, adding: ‘I’m sure the Duke will find a way to reach out privately to wish His Majesty a happy birthday like he has always done’.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Buckingham Palace previously refused to discuss the King’s plans.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Buckingham Palace refused to comment\u00a0 on reports the father and son spoke for the King’s birthday and are due to speak again next week when contacted by MailOnline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Prince William and Kate are seen leaving the event after celebrating the King’s birthday<\/p>\n Looking effortlessly elegant, Zara Tindall, pictured with husband Mike, also attended<\/p>\n London’s Piccadilly Lights were lit up with a birthday message for Charles and the tourist attraction also displayed a quote from his Big Issue article.<\/p>\n MailOnline has also contacted representatives for Prince Harry for comment<\/span><\/p>\n Meanwhile the\u00a0Prince and <\/span>Princess of Wales were seen enjoying a late night out as they departed <\/span>Clarence House\u00a0close to midnight after King Charles’s glittering 75th birthday party last night.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/24\/12\/77901873-12787199-The_Duke_and_Duchess_of_Sussex_distanced_themselves_from_the_boo-a-22_1700830266446.jpg\")
