Kate Middleton Photoshop scandal exposes 'years of deceit, cover-ups and lies'
The shock Photoshop scandal that rocked the Royal Family this week is just the tip of the iceberg according to royal author Omid Scobie.
The former royal journalist and author of controversial books including Finding Freedom and Endgame is commonly referred to as Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's mouthpiece after he admitted he was previously briefed by the Sussex team. And now he has weighed in on Kate Middleton's Photoshop scandal and insisted the slip-up points at "years of deceit" in the Royal Family's dealings with the press and public.
After the global news director of Agence France-Presse, told the BBC that Kensington Palace is no longer a "trusted source", Scobie shared his own thoughts. "There are dozens of pages of reporting and detailed statements to support this in my book Endgame," he said. "This not just about one poorly-managed photo release, it is years of deceit, cover-ups and lies."

On Sunday, Catherine took to Instagram to release a snap of herself posing alongside her three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. But despite many people being overjoyed to see Kate, social media users spotted several "errors" with the picture. Princess Kate was then forced to apologise for her error and explain she had edited the snap.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle then weighed in on Kate's photo-editing scandal, through a spokesperson. According to US gossip site Page Six sources close to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry said: "This isn't a mistake that Meghan would ever make...she has a keen eye and freakish attention to detail." But then a spokesperson from the couple's Archewell Foundation spoke out and insisted: "With respect to Page Six, that did not come from us."
