In a revelation that is set to send shockwaves through the corridors of Buckingham Palace, a forthcoming royal biography claims Prince Harry adopted a new, privately-held mantra about the British public, heavily influenced by his wife, Meghan Markle.
The claim, unearthed by author Omid Scobie in his controversial new book Endgame, suggests a fundamental shift in the Duke of Sussex's mindset towards the nation he once served as a senior working royal.
The Influential Philosophy of the Duchess
According to Scobie's reporting, it was Meghan Markle who introduced Harry to the perspective that "the British public had a responsibility to him, not the other way around." This philosophy, the book alleges, became a central tenet of Harry's outlook, marking a dramatic departure from the traditional royal doctrine of service and duty.
The biography paints a picture of a prince who became increasingly disillusioned, feeling that the public and the press had failed to uphold their end of an unwritten social contract, particularly in their treatment of his wife.
A Clash of Duty and Expectation
This alleged mantra lies at the heart of the couple's decision to step back from their royal duties and eventually relocate to the United States. It frames their exit not merely as a search for privacy, but as a conscious recalibration of a relationship they felt was fundamentally one-sided and unsustainable.
The book's assertions are likely to fuel further debate about the Sussexes' relationship with the UK, contrasting their modern approach to personal boundaries with the centuries-old expectations placed upon the Royal Family.
As Endgame prepares for its global release, this insight into Harry's private mindset offers a provocative lens through which to view one of the most dramatic royal upheavals in recent history.
