Our so-called “royal expert” Omid Scobie—and I use that term very loosely—is finally getting a taste of his own medicine. You know, the same Omid Scobie who’s spent years acting as Meghan Markle’s personal PR puppet? Well, karma has come knocking at his door, and oh boy, is it knocking hard.
Let me paint the picture for you. This is a man who built his entire career on being Meghan’s unofficial spokesperson, her loyal defender, and her media attack dog against the royal family. And what has it gotten him? His company, Miu Publishing (yes, that’s the name), has been officially dissolved after failing to respond to a strike-off notice. Talk about a fall from grace.
Remember Finding Freedom? More like Finding Fantasy, if you ask me. And then there was Endgame—oh, what a disaster that turned out to be. The book caused an absolute circus with its name-dropping allegations, which backfired spectacularly. And where is Meghan now? Nowhere to be seen. It’s fascinating how quickly she distances herself when things get messy.
First, it was her own family, then the royal family, and now even her most loyal supporter is getting the “Markle treatment.” Sound familiar? It’s like watching a masterclass in throwing people under the bus.
Scobie dedicated years of his life to defending every single thing Meghan did. Every criticism of her was met with his immediate response, and every negative story was countered with his so-called “inside sources.” He was essentially her unofficial spokesperson. And look at him now—his company’s dissolved, his credibility is in tatters, and Meghan? She’s probably planning her next PR move in Monaco.
What’s even more interesting is the timing. Scobie moved to California, just like the Sussexes, only to watch his professional world crumble while Meghan and Harry try to rebuild their brand. Coincidence? I think not.
Compare this to how real professionals handle themselves. Journalists and authors who cover William and Catherine maintain professional distance, report facts, and don’t turn themselves into personal cheerleaders. And guess what? Their careers aren’t imploding.
Speaking of William and Catherine, isn’t it remarkable how they’ve handled themselves through all this drama? While Meghan’s been playing media games with her loyal lapdogs, Catherine’s been quietly recovering from surgery with William by her side. No leaked stories, no drama, no PR games—just dignity and class.
Scobie had a chance to be a legitimate royal correspondent. He could have maintained objectivity, reported fairly, and built a respectable career. Instead, he chose to become Meghan’s cheerleader-in-chief. And look where that’s got him.
What’s truly telling is the silence from the Sussex camp. Not a word of support for their most loyal defender. Not even a carefully planted story about how “sources close to the couple” are saddened by this development. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
Remember when Meghan used to talk about supporting women in the workplace and lifting each other up? Well, I guess that doesn’t apply to male authors who’ve dedicated their careers to defending her. The hypocrisy is staggering.
This entire situation is a reminder of the damage done to journalism. Real royal reporting isn’t about taking sides or becoming a cheerleader for one particular royal. It’s about fair, balanced coverage that respects the institution while maintaining professional integrity.
While Scobie’s company is being dissolved, William and Catherine are focused on their duties, their family, and actual service. The contrast couldn’t be clearer.
So, what’s next for Omid Scobie? Will he continue to be Meghan’s unofficial spokesperson? Will he write another book? Or will he finally realize that hitching his wagon to someone known for throwing people under the bus might not be the best career move?
And what about Meghan? Will she find another willing participant in her media games? Because let’s be honest, she needs someone to do her dirty work. She can’t very well attack the royal family directly—that would ruin the “dignified silence” she claims to be maintaining.
It might take time, and it might be messy, but it always prevails. While some people are busy playing media chess, others are actually doing the work—serving the people and maintaining the dignity of the institution.
