Meghan and Harry Paid Omid Scobie $300,000 to Smear Royal Family

In a shocking revelation during a court hearing, Prince Harry admitted that he and Meghan Markle paid Omid Scobie a staggering $300,000 per article to tarnish the reputation of the royal family.

This admission has sent shockwaves through the media and put Meghan’s safety at risk.

The Duke of Sussex’s testimony left many questioning his judgment, as it became evident that he had willingly engaged in a smear campaign against his own family.

The couple allegedly hired Scobie to write articles that would praise them while disparaging the royal family.

However, Omid Scobie himself denies any knowledge of Meghan and Harry, throwing doubt on the credibility of their claims.

It remains to be seen how this revelation will impact the ongoing legal battle between the Sussexes and the royal family.

The royal family is closely following this case, and it is likely that both Meghan and Harry will be called to court to answer for their use of the press to smear their own family.

The implications of these actions could be far-reaching and have long-lasting consequences for the couple.

During the second day of Harry’s testimony, he was questioned about his connection to Omid Scobie.

Scobie, who co-authored the book “Finding Freedom” about the Sussexes, had previously claimed to have no personal relationship with them.

It remains unclear whether Scobie has ever visited the couple in their luxurious £12 million mansion in Montecito.

In court, Scobie was mentioned by MGM’s barrister Andrew Green during his cross-examination of Harry.

Green referred to Scobie’s previous statements about the importance of sources in royal reporting, highlighting the potential contradiction in Harry’s claims.

While the source of Scobie’s comments was not disclosed, an article from August 2020 quoted him discussing the reliance on anonymous sources in royal and celebrity news.

Scobie and his co-author Carolyn Duran reportedly spoke to over 100 sources, including friends of the Sussexes, royal aides, and palace staff, for their book.

It is worth noting that Scobie has recently been in California, as evidenced by his Instagram posts from just two days ago.

The journalist has a controversial past, having claimed to have hacked voicemails while working at MG Entitled The Sunday People.

He also alleged that during his time at The Daily Mirror, he overheard the editor, Piers Morgan, discussing information obtained from a voicemail.

Scobie, however, maintains that he is not a friend, mouthpiece, or cheerleader for the Sussexes, despite giving evidence in Harry’s favor at the High Court last month.

This claim has raised questions about Scobie’s credibility and his true relationship with the couple.

Under cross-examination, Scobie denied that his testimony about Piers Morgan was a fabrication to support Harry’s case.

He also rejected the suggestion that his career is linked to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, asserting that external factors have influenced his professional trajectory.

These revelations have further fueled the ongoing debate about media bias and the role of journalists in reporting on the royal family.

As the legal battle continues, it remains to be seen how this scandal will impact the public perception of Meghan and Harry, as well as the future of their relationship with the royal family.
