Omid Scobie’s book has caused quite a stir in the British monarchy.
Its contents have caused headaches for many members of the royal family, including Prince William, Princess Kate and King Charles.
One of the most controversial issues the book addresses is the alleged racist behavior of some members of the royal family toward Archie, the son of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
In fact, the book “in error” reveals that King Charles and Kate Middleton were the ones who made comments about the little boy that were considered racist.
But that’s not all, the book also exposes the extravagant demands of King Charles, who, according to Scobie, is known among palace staff for his eccentricities.
In particular, the book’s author points out that the king lives a life of luxury and comfort unknown even to other members of the royal family.
King Charles’ Demands
The King’s personal requirements include a number of customs that are considered strange by some.
For example, King Charles is very particular about the breakfast he is served.
According to the book, the king likes boiled eggs, but they must be cooked in exactly the right amount of time, four minutes to be exact.
If the eggs are not served to his specifications, the king sends them back to the kitchen.
Another peculiarity of King Charles is that he always travels with his bedding.
According to the author of the book, the King insists on carrying his own thousand-thread linen, which must be perfectly steamed before use.
The king also has a personal shoemaker who is at his disposal to fix any detail, as he likes to wear his shoes many times before changing them.
However, the book reveals that he changes his shoelaces frequently and, of course, they have to be ironed.
Another pet peeve of King Charles is his obsession with toothpaste. According to the book, the king must have just the right amount of toothpaste on his toothbrush to brush his teeth.
Omid Scobie’s book has caused a great deal of controversy, bringing to the fore not only the issue of racism within the monarchy, but also the eccentricities of King Charles.
