The Dutch version of Omid Scobie’s book, Endgame, has claimed that Prince William denied Harry the chance to fly to Balmoral with the royal family to see the Queen before she died.

Scobie claimed the Prince of Wales did so because he was ‘still angry’ at Harry because of the Sussexes’ Oprah interview in 2021, according to The Sun. 

The Dutch version also branded William as ‘heartless’ for the alleged move – a highly inflammatory term that is likely to deepen the rift between the two brothers. However, that term does not appear in the UK version. 

The chapter recounts the hours before the Monarch passed away in September last year, including how members of the the Firm rushed to Balmoral to see her. 

Prince William, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh travelled in a plane up north.

Kate appeared to stay in Windsor as she was photographed picking up her kids in England later that day. 

However, Prince Harry made his own way there and later claimed that he was not invited on the trip.

He flew to Scotland alone – and by the time he got to Balmoral, the Queen had sadly passed away at age 96. 

The royal told host Anderson Cooper that he texted his brother to see how he and Kate were going to get to the estate, but that he was never given the flight details.

‘I asked my brother – I said, “What are your plans? How are you and Kate getting up there?”‘ he recalled.

‘And then, a couple of hours later, you know, all of the family members that live within the Windsor and Ascot area were jumping on a plane together, a plane with 12, 14, maybe 16 seats.’

‘You were not invited on that plane?’ Anderson asked him, to which Harry replied, ‘I was not invited.’

The Dutch version of Endgame has since had to be pulped after it named King Charles III and Kate Middleton as the royals alleged to have made comments about the skin colour of Harry and Meghan’s son Archie before he was born.  

Scobie refused to apologise for the scandal that has erupted and claimed: ‘I’m as frustrated as everyone else. The book I wrote, the book I edited, the book I signed off on, did not have names in it’. 

He has been accused of acting as a ‘mouthpiece’ for Meghan and Harry, an allegation he has denied, writing on X, formerly Twitter: ‘I’m not ‘Meg’s pal’. 

This comes as the Sussexes did not get an invite to the wedding of Harry’s childhood friend – after William and Kate received one.

Hugh Grosvenor, the Duke of Westminster, is said to have wanted to invite the Harry and Meghan but decided against it to avoid clashes on his big day amid soaring tensions between the royals.

He picked the Prince and Princess of Wales over the Sussexes to avoid any awkward moments for King Charles and Queen Camilla during the wedding, The Sunday Times reported.

One of Britain’s richest men, 32, the billionaire aristocrat proposed to fiancee Olivia Henson at his family seat, Eaton Hall in Cheshire. They are set to get married at Chester Cathedral on June 7 in the wedding of the year.

It comes as he was revealed to be the godfather of Harry’s son Archie – alongside being the godfather for Prince George, who will be at the wedding.

A life-long friend for each of the brothers, he is thought to be the only pal both chose to mentor their children.

And to rub salt in the wound, it is thought Prince William is in the running to be Grosvenor’s best man.

The broadsheet understands that the Duke wanted to invite Harry and Meghan but eventually decided against it as he feared the tension it would cause with the other Royals who have been invited – including the King and Queen. 

‘It’s incredibly sad it has come to this,’ a friend of William and Harry’s told The Sunday Times. 

‘Hugh is one of very few close friends of William and Harry’s who has maintained strong bonds and a line of communication with both. He wishes they could put their heads together and patch things up, but realises it’s unlikely to happen before the wedding.’

‘He wanted to avoid anything overshadowing the day, especially for Olivia, and doesn’t want any awkwardness.’

A spokesman for the Duke said last night: ‘We are not in a position to comment on the guest list.’ Buckingham Palace also declined to comment.

Kensington Palace, Archewell and Dutch publishers Xander Uitgevers were contacted for comment by MailOnline.
