Prince Harry's 'Army of Therapists': Prince William Feels He Has 'Lost Brainwashed Brother' and 'Doesn't Want to Know This Version of Him'

William, Prince of Wales is reportedly concerned for Prince Harry's mental health according to author Omid Scobie.

Prince William, 42, and Prince Harry, 40, may never reconcile, according to Omid Scobie's book Endgame.

This led a source close to the future king to spill, "He feels he has lost Harry and doesn't want to know this version of him."

"I was talking to a source quite early on in the process, and they called Harry a 'defector' and said that was William's view," Scobie told an outlet.

The late 2023 tome is the follow-up to the royal scribe's Finding Freedom from 2020, which he co-authored with Carolyn Durand. That book chronicled Harry and Meghan Markle's departure from the monarchy, known as "Megxit," as well as their apparent reasons for leaving the royal family after roughly 20 months as a working royal couple.

Controversy around the book exploded the following year when it was revealed the Duchess of Sussex assisted the writers in crafting their narrative through a third party.

The tome featured a heavy emphasis on the aftermath of the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022.

As The Royal Observer previously reported, Scobie detailed the events of Her Majesty's September 8 passing, starting that morning when news of the Queen's ailing health began to make headlines.

"'You should answer it,' Meghan told him. He tapped accept just before it stopped. Harry hadn’t spoken to his father much that year, but this was not the time for any father-and-son tension. Charles told him he and Camilla were about to leave Dumfries House for Balmoral, where Princess Anne was already by the Queen’s side," Scobie wrote when describing an unlisted phone call Harry received that morning.

The scribe explained, "He told Harry to make his way to Scotland immediately. William, whom Charles had just spoken to, was supposedly working on arranging travel. Harry sent a text message to his brother, asking how he and Kate planned to get to Scotland and whether they could travel together. No response."

"'William ignored him,' said a family source. 'He clearly didn’t want to see his brother.' Princess Eugenie reached out to Harry to see if he had any more information about their grandmother. She had heard from another family member that it was 'time' but knew little more. With no invite forthcoming from any of the family members, Harry eventually located an available option — a private charter costing [$37,000] from Luton Airport, a 40-minute drive from Frogmore without traffic," the book revealed.

Scobie has long been critical of the Prince of Wales, claiming that His Royal Highness "wanted him barred from events."

"Sources told me that Prince William was so incensed by my revelations that his Kensington Palace team had given negative information to favored journalists about his brother that he wanted me barred from his engagements," the journalist shared in June 2023.
