Title: Royal Expert Blames King Charles for Meghan and Harry’s Commercial Deals

In a surprising turn of events, author Omid Scobie has pointed fingers at for pushing Meghan and Harry into signing lucrative contracts with streaming platforms.

Scobie suggests that the mishandling of the Megxit saga by the King has left the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with no choice but to seek financial stability through commercial ventures.

According to Scobie, the couple found themselves in a precarious situation and had to accept deals they may have otherwise hesitated to consider.

Their financial support was abruptly cut off, leaving them in need of substantial funds for their security and a proper home.

Although the King did provide financial assistance during their first year, it seems that it was not enough to sustain their lifestyle.

Following their departure as senior royals and relocation to the US in 2020, Meghan and Harry secured contracts for books, documentaries, and podcasts.

These included a staggering £81 million five-year deal with Netflix and an £18 million contract with Spotify, which was later terminated.

The revelations made by Harry in the Netflix series “Harry and Meghan” and his memoir “Spare” further strained their relationship with the royal family.

Scobie argues that the Sussexes' decision to disrupt the status quo was a direct consequence of the King's mishandling of their desire to leave Britain and step back from their royal duties.

However, critics point out that they willingly chose to distance themselves from the royal family and are now complaining about the loss of benefits and privileges.

Some even argue that other royals who faced similar circumstances did not voice such grievances.

In his recently released book, “Endgame,” Scobie quotes Harry and Meghan expressing their desire to be heard, but also highlights Charles' stubbornness in this matter.

He reveals that all financial support, including funding for their official security, was cut off in July 2020.

Previously, this support had been provided through Charles' private income from the Duchy of Cornwall estate.

Contrary to popular belief, negotiations for contracts had already begun before Meghan and Harry's departure, dating back to as early as 2016 when Meghan first started dating Harry.

The lucrative deals with Netflix, Penguin Random House, and Spotify were based on the marketability of their stories and insights into the royal family.

Scobie suggests that the couple knowingly signed these contracts, fully aware of what was expected of them.

Critics argue that the Sussexes' ability to profit from exposing their family's private matters reflects their shameless pursuit of financial gain.

Scobie's remarks seem to imply that their lack of talent led them to sell their dirty laundry for a substantial sum of money.

Moreover, he places blame on and the British royal family for not succumbing to their demands for financial support, portraying the couple as victims.

The situation escalated when Meghan and Harry announced their departure without consulting the Queen, while still intending to represent Her Majesty's work on a part-time basis.

This decision, coupled with their desire to capitalize on their royal titles overseas, deeply offended the Queen.

It was this rejection that triggered a spiral of anger and resentment, highlighting the couple's sense of entitlement.

In conclusion, the blame game continues as Scobie accuses King Charles of driving Meghan and Harry into signing commercial deals due to his mishandling of the Megxit saga.

While the Sussexes sought financial stability through these ventures, critics argue that their behavior and expectations have been disrespectful to the royal family.

The repercussions of their choices have strained relationships and fueled public debate about their motives and actions.
