Meghan shows subtle signal of support for King Charles as she wears diamond bracelet he gave her as a present on first outing since since ‘royal racists’ were named in Dutch translation of Omid Scobie’s Endgame

Meghan Markle appeared to offer her father-in-law an olive branch as she wore a bracelet gifted to her by the king, in her first public appearance since the royal racism row was reignited with the release of 'mouthpiece' Omid Scobie's book.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, stepped out in Montecito on Monday wearing an array of casual luxuries, including Princess Diana's Cartier bracelet and watch, and a diamond tennis bracelet from Bentley & Skinner – a gift from the king and worth at least £4,900.

First worn on the eve of her royal wedding, the piece was first created by royal warrant holders Bentley & Skinner and features ninety-two round brilliant-cut diamonds.

It could be a sign of peace between the warring Windsors after Omid Scobie's new book Endgame named Charles and the Princess of Wales as the two royal families who reportedly raised concerns about the color of Prince Archie's skin before he was born.

Harry and Meghan are said to be 'desperate to return to the royal fold' and recently contacted Charles for his 75th birthday.

Meghan proved she was the queen of casual as she stepped into Montecito wearing millions of pounds worth of accessories.

As well as black leggings and a plain black top, the former actress wore a new pair of £78 New Balance sneakers and a green baseball cap.

She paired this with a pair of Krewe sunglasses, which she has worn before and cost £250.

She then wedged her iPhone 14 Pro into a £180 Bottega Veneta phone case.

As she strolled through the beachside Californian city 5,000 miles away, the royal feud sparked by her former ally's book rumbled on.

Scobie, who is seen as the couple's unofficial spokesperson, is still dealing with the fallout from his new book, Endgame.

An early version of the book, given to Dutch translators, named the two senior members of the royal family – King Charles and the Princess of Wales – who, according to Markle, talked about their “concerns” about the color of the woman's skin. her son Archie while she was pregnant.

Meghan first made her accusations about the conversation in her television interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021.

Harry and Meghan issued a statement saying it was not the late queen or her husband Prince Philip, but declined to name the royals who made the comments.

Scobie's book marks the first time they are named.

The Sussexes have refused to publicly defend their relatives, and the publisher of Scobie's book has not provided any explanation for how the names ended up in print.

Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace are considering legal action.

Scobie claims he “never submitted a book that contained these names.”

A source said The times that United Talent Agency had previously sent a draft version of the book to publisher Xander Uitgevers, which included the names.

However, a final proof of the 400-page tome was later sent, but it is clear that the translator had been working from an earlier version.

It comes after Scobie's new book Endgame has already dropped out of Amazon's top 100 current bestsellers, despite a slew of publicity in the first week of its release.

The title currently ranks 139th in the UK bestseller book list based on sales on Amazon, which are updated hourly to reflect recent and historical sales of each item.

The former Suits actress appeared at a gala in Los Angeles last month and said she had exciting new projects in the pipeline, and looked forward to sharing more details as soon as she could.

Endgame has fallen more than 100 places in three days, after being in 14th place last Friday. On release day last Tuesday, it ranked 77th.

The book is now listed in the table behind children's titles such as the Beano Yearbook, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Stick Man; biographies of Britney Spears, Matthew Perry and Chris Kamara; and cookbooks by Mary Berry, Rick Stein and Tom Kerridge.

In the same US Amazon chart today, Endgame ranked 235th – below The Very Hungry Caterpillar; the danger! 2024 calendar; and a Paw Patrol sounds book.

Amazon says its listings are a “good indicator of how well a product sells overall,” but “do not always indicate how well an item sells compared to similar items.”

The book's declining performance comes despite a huge amount of media attention and TV interviews Mr Scobie conducted for the BBC and ITV in Britain and ABC in the US.

The author has also given interviews to publications including The Times, Evening Standard, Independent, Tatler, People, Elle.com and Paris March.

Meanwhile, the book was not prominently displayed in London's oldest bookshop, Hatchards on Piccadilly – with only one copy set aside to order, reported The guard.

The newspaper added that around 14 copies were stacked on a table at the entrance to nearby Waterstones, but there was 'limited interest' there too.

Scobie is widely described as Meghan Markle's mouthpiece, but neither she nor Prince Harry have yet spoken out in defense of the royal family over particularly damaging allegations of racism.

The Dutch translation of the book is named after Charles and Kate, because the royal family is said to have asked what color Prince Archie's skin could be before he was born.

King Charles III is expected to consult Prince William this week to discuss their response to the storm, after Buckingham Palace said it is “considering all options” when it comes to a response.

Meghan kept it casual as she walked around Santa Barbara

The Sussexes have not commented publicly on the race, but a source close to Meghan said “it was not leaked to Mr Scobie by anyone in her camp.”

Yesterday it also emerged that the Dutch edition of Endgame quoted a source close to the Sussexes who branded William 'heartless' – another inflammatory passage not included in the British version.

Referring to claims that the Prince of Wales had secured a flight to Balmoral without Harry as the Queen lay dying, the translation quoted the following source: 'It was callous to deny him the opportunity to go to Scotland to say goodbye his grandmother. This was not the time to be petty.”

A 'family source' also claims that William 'deliberately ignored' Harry when the Queen died and 'didn't want to help him', according to the Dutch edition.

It said: 'He was and remains angry because Harry revealed private matters… He finds that unforgivable.'

The Dutch version also refers to the king's 'cash for honours' scandal last year, with a 'source' saying that 'people within the institution are concerned that 'more stories will follow'.'

None of these claims appeared in the English version, The Sun reported on Sunday.

It comes after Meghan admitted under oath that she authorized a senior aide to brief Scobie on his previous book about the Sussexes, called Finding Freedom.
