Prince William is 'done with Harry' after Kate Middleton dragged into royal race row

Prince William is reportedly 'done with Prince Harry' after his wife Kate Middleton has become embroiled in the royal racism row.

It comes after the monarchy was left reeling after King Charles and the Princess of Wales were named as the two royals who allegedly voiced "concerns" over the skin colour of Harry and Meghan's son Archie in Omid Scobie's controversial book, Endgame. An "error" in the Dutch translation of the book has been blamed for the inclusion of their names.

Now a source close to the royal camp has told The Mirror: "It's a bit of a final straw now. Prince William has had enough. It's about enough as a big brother can take. He was starting to come round to the idea of trying to mend their rift but at this moment, Wills is done."

A pal of the family added: "They are tired of the drama. Dragging Kate into it was unnecessary. It's gone too far. " It echoes the view of a royal expert who just days ago said Prince William will be "furious" that Kate has been dragged into the racism row.

Charles and Kate were named as the royals alleged to have raised "concerns" during family discussions about how dark the skin of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's son might be, before he was born. Their names were published in the Dutch edition of Omid's book. It was quickly pulled from the shelves after the disclosure, which was not present in the English language version.

Royal expert Ingrid Seward told The Mirror: "There is no doubt Prince William will be furious about the latest supposed slur against his wife. He will be angry at the media for giving the story such massive exposure.

"He will be angry with Harry and Meghan regardless of whether they were involved or not. He will be angry with himself for allowing Catherine's name to be involved as he is very protective of her.

"William has a big temper, but he is also kind and sympathetic. He will use this to comfort his princess should she need it. But Catherine is not a Middleton for nothing. She is strong and has grown stronger over the years of being inside the Royal Family.

"She has had to. They all do. As it is an unwritten rule to ignore the unpleasant and often untrue things said about them. Otherwise, they would not be able to function."

The allegations were first made when Harry and Meghan were interviewed by Oprah Winfrey in 2021, but they chose not to name those involved. When the Sussexes made their explosive allegations on Oprah, they set in train a public debate about who in the Royal Family might harbour such racially charged views. In a multicultural modern Britain such allegations against the monarchy generated debate on a matter of such public importance with Scobie's new book claiming to add to that public debate.

Author Omid has denied responsibility for the error in the Dutch translation of his book. In the UK version of Endgame, Omid hasn't named those involved in the racism row. He claimed that he knows the names but said "laws in the United Kingdom prevent me from reporting who they were."

Speaking to Dutch chat show RTL Boulevard, Omid said: "The book is in several languages, and unfortunately I do not speak Dutch. But if there are translation errors, I'm sure the publishers will have it under control. I wrote and edited the English version. There's never been no version I've produced which has names in it." Omid went on to deny that he had ever written the names claiming: "There's never been no version I've produced which has names in it."

He also insisted Meghan and Harry weren't involved in the writing of Endgame. Speaking to The Standard, the author said: "There's enough people around them and in their orbit who know the ins and outs of things."
